[QUOTE="Wulf Ratbane, post: 4240041, member: 94"] This is a little thing, and I could be completely off base here... But perhaps part of the problem is the presentation format of the information. The forum title is large and bold, and everything after that (especially the subtext describing the forum) doesn't "POP." Here's how it basically looks on my screen, in Stealth mode: [b]Pathfinder, d20 Modern, d20 System & OGL Games[/b] [size=1]Discuss Pathfinder, d20 Modern and cool stand-alone d20 System/OGL games like Arcana Evolved, Mutants & Masterminds, Star Wars Saga, and the like.[/size] Every word past the first couple of words starts to suffer serious attention drop-off. I'd settle on the top two, maybe three games, for the header. Then drop the conversational tone in the subtext and just list game systems, so the names stand out. [b]3rd Edition / d20 / OGL[/b] [size=1]Pathfinder, Mutants & Masterminds, True20, Star Wars Sage, Arcana Evolved[/size] or better yet [b]3rd Edition / d20 / OGL[/b] [list] [*][size=1]Pathfinder[/size] [*][size=1]Mutants & Masterminds[/size] [*][size=1]True 20[/size] [*][size=1]Star Wars Saga[/size] [*][size=1]Arcana Evolved[/size] [/list] That definitely eats a lot more real estate, though. At any rate I can say with certainty that I don't really go to the General forum to find anything specific. General is a forum for "grazing." [/QUOTE]
