Thoughts on Collapsible Categories?
« on: February 19, 2013, 04:40:44 PM »
What does everyone think about us adding a code that makes all categories "collapsed" by default? You will be able to click on a category and uncollapse it to see the forums inside. It will make the size of the index smaller.

I kinda prefer seeing the board index uncollapsed that way I can see if there's any new posts and not have to go searching for them because SOMEONE (K2323) decided to spam recent posts passed the 10 page limits.

By default, the index itself has been uncollapsed and is already collapsible by clicking on a little icon (In the killing, it's the little box with a horizontal line on the top left of each category). The ability to collapse x category should be a default thing of forums(as far as I know, it is.) So putting in another code for the same purpose would be kinda....stupid?

And like what Hikaru/UnStellar said, leaving it uncollapsed in case someone spams the IC region would turn finding a specific topic a chore. It may take more space on the page, but it's easier to access when scrolling and finding a planet/territory you need to post in.
