Please post forum change requests here. I will get to them as I am able.

Continuing the theme of trying to improve the intuitivity/readibility of the forum, I’d request further emphasizing the thread content, as it currently blends a bit too much into everything else, and can be overshadowed by the “New & Unread Topics” –section below it.

When I opened the page for this thread, I had to look around a while to figure out where the actual post here was, haha, because thread start blends in with, well, everything else. Here’s a picture to try to explain what I mean:

The area outlined in red is the actual content I’m in this page for, yet it takes far less space and is far less noticeable than the “secondary” content (outlined in purple).

In longer threads (like ‘In Defense of Idiosyncratic Dice Mechanics’) this is less of a case, but I’d still appreciate clearer content hierarchy.

Thanks for the feedback @Fell! I made the New & Unread Topics smaller and added a top border to that section to make it appear more distinct. I did the same with the footer buttons and added some extra padding between it and the new and unread topics section. Does this look better to you? Any other suggestions/requests for this change?

It is an improvement, thank you!

Request to change the name of the forum from “d6plus” to something like “rpg development”. “d6plus” has a strong association with rules light and narrative games which, while great, feels very limiting to the scope of the forum and to people making games with other types of dice
