Just incase my opinion is worth anything, it seems KMans doubled the number of games being run at any one time since the time I left. There are too many games here that dont update frequently, it's too much to trawl through. You used to be able to follow some different stories in addition to making posts in your own but that's not possible anymore so you feel less connected.
I preferred the site when there were fewer games, and the players were able to keep on top of things and keep things moving. Having so many games at a lesser activity is not as homely and personal as it used to be.

For example, what's going on with the following:
Random Acts, New Times, XCrawl, White Wolf, ToEE, Awakening, Shadows?
If everybody concentrated on the remaining games they would be far better and visitors would stand a chance of following things along and enjoying what was being created here, just like things used to be..
Anyway, I cant really talk as I dont currently play in anything, but I've found I dont even log on to follow anything these days because there's just too much noise and you're not sure what games are worth looking in for every day and which are not.. Just my two pence..

Well, yes. These boards could definitely use a clean up in terms of inactive games, and the list you provided ain't a bad one... Except that Random Acts and XCrawl are both fairly active, the former more than the latter.
New Times, Awakening, White Wolf, and Shadows all need to be shifted over to inactive. I know we can just minimize the board so we don't need to look at it, but it still looks crappy to newcomers, who can look at them and say 'oh, these boards are inactive, nevermind this place.'
XCrawl and Random Acts are just a little quiet lately. XCrawl because the 'unholy triad' has suddenly vanished off the face of KMan's, and Random Acts 'cause... I don't know, honestly. But Fangor's got a job like the rest of us, and running games is harder than playing in them.
I'd replace the folks in XCrawl, except I think it's getting close to the end.

Random Acts is my fault. Been to the doctor more in the last 2 weeks and a half than the past 15 years of my life. Just got out of another 'procedure' an hour ago. Will update today though

Yeah, this place could definately use some cleaning up. I would do it to help KMan out, but I'm just not exactly sure where everything's supposed to go and how exactly it gets there and I don't want to risk breaking the boards altogether  |

No worries Shakes, it's actually not that hard to do. You just need to head to the admin section of the boards, select move board, select the board you want to move, and move it to the Closed Game Events (Archive) section. That will hide it.
The only thing to remember is to provide links to it in the closed game discussion thread.
Anyways, did the requested sprucing. Anything else need to go?
