Line 1: {{Forumheader\|Community discussions\|archive}}{{Resolved/mini\|res\| The new forum feature will not be implemented at this time.}} The other day I was looking through [[Special:WikiFeatures]] and saw that the new forum design has been added to be able to use on a wiki. I don't know how long this has been there for but I figure I may as well bring it up since I've seen no discussion on it. What I'm asking is everyone's thoughts on it and if we should enable it. Line 27: '''Do we want to implement Wikia's new forum system?''' ----▼ ~~''To avoid formatting issues, include {{t\|clr}} in between every line of your vote. Countdown: {{Countdown\|time=14:11 April 27, 2013\|zone=UTC}}''~~ ---- {{VoteAgainst}}'''Oppose''' - As I've already made clear, I feel it will be more detrimental in the long term than helpful. {{LabSig}} 14:14, April 20, 2013 (UTC){{clr}} Line 34 ⟶ 33: {{Neutral}}'''Neutral''' - I like the current forum system we have here. The new design might make it simpler, but I still prefer it this way.

But I also don't see much of a reason to change when we already have a decent system. So whatever the community decides is alright with me. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview\|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview\|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview\|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 15:14, April 20, 2013 (UTC){{clr}} ▲---- {{Neutral}}'''Neutral, leaning towards Support''' - I really like how this system is simpler to use. For this reason, I believe it could draw more users into using the forums. However, I also like the current system we have now. --'''[[user:Bleeh\|<font color="navy">Bleeh</font>]]'''<sup>[[User talk: Bleeh\|<font color="#489094">(talk)</font>]]</sup> <sup>[[User blog:Bleeh\|<font color="#489094">(blog)</font>]]</sup> 15:40, April 20, 2013 (UTC) {{clr}} ---- {{Neutral}}'''Neutral''' - Per Nikel and LiR. {{DanPinSig}} 15:57, April 20, 2013 (UTC) {{clr}} ---- {{VoteFor}}'''Support''' I don't know what I'm voting for. smirk [[User:Auror Andrachome\|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome\|talk]]) 01:24, April 22, 2013 (UTC) :Care to at least give some ''actual'' reasoning behind your support vote then?

This one doesn't look bad either, I just don't see why we need a new design.

Since the feature is currently inactive, it will remain inactive, pending any future discussions on activation. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview\|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview\|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview\|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 16:15, April 27, 2013 (UTC)
