F.DS could benefit from a clean up

Right now, looking around the forums, there are many, many ancient and now completely disused subforums, often nested in ways that made for a quick and easy solution at the time but now makes the forum look messy. I feel like a bit of time moving things around, perhaps making an archive section and archiving a number of old subforums that haven't been used in years, could help make the forum look fresher and more modern.

I'm thinking things like:

  • The nested previews of old Dominion Previews could be organised into a single sub-forum in general, or even just all put into an archive as mentioned above
  • Several child boards in places like Tournaments and Events are now many years old and haven't been posted in since e.g. 2016
  • Forum Game Awards haven't been used in over 3 years
  • The entire Innovation section of the forum was last used two years ago

I think a bit of a clean up could really help make the forum look a lot nicer and cleaner.

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

I’ve suggested more than once that the FAQ sub forum needs to go; as it just causes confusion for some people with thinking it’s where rules questions should be asked. It’s original purpose has been long replaced by the Wiki.

I think I have done this. Please let me know if I did something I shouldn't have, in which case I will undo it, or if I didn't do something I should have, in which case I will un not do it.

The "Mini Set Design Contest" subforum under variants is a nice archive to have around, so not sure it should be removed, but it's a visual clutter relic of something that doesn't happen any more. Perhaps all the threads could be locked and moved to the Weekly Design Contest subforum?

The Innovation forums seem to be completely gone? That's a bit too harsh i think

Too bad it was only 4 boards, 2 more and you'd get Monument (I'd argue they weren't melded but tucked)

Quite an innovative joke there.

He can still do it if he has another action to take.

I've only discovered Innovation in the last couple of weeks.
