This thread is to be used to suggest issues to create polls on this forum. If a reasonable request is made, and it looks like people support/are against an idea, we’ll make a poll or thread to help determine what the new policy is.

I don't think enough people read the comics to warrant it's own forum. Besides, there's always Dark Horse's forum.

How long before a book comes out are we allowed to discuss spoilers (especially relevant to those who get books early)?

I agree with Mastage. I would like a defined stance on book spoilers prior to the books' release.

Well I thought since The Clone Wars was to be covered in the comics having forum just for comics would an ok idea.

The Lit Forum seems to attract mostly people who read the novels. We need a seperate forum for Misc Literature such as comics and RPG's. The games forum does not work for RPG Lit fans since they are mostly interested in role play

I like that idea Sikle, except Ive noticed several things. One there are a large group of people who have really only read the NJO, and with all due respect to them, their knowledge is limited to that era.

I propose we sepearte the literature forum into two catagories, one exploring opinions on Bantham, RPG, Marvel and other old school recources, the other, a concentrated forum on keeping with the NJO.

Humm. I think there should be a forum for RPG issues, but keep Lit the continuity forum.

There is an RPG and RPF forum.

RPG is for discussion of the games.

RPF is for direct role-playing.

I think that a seperate comics forum with a link from literature which should be renamed novels if a comics forum was created would work very well.

Here are excerpts from my previous proposal for changes to the Literature Forum (which resulted in the Authors & Artist and EU Community - both very successful. I didn't get all what I wanted, but the changes so far have worked).

1. "Books" - a new forum dealing only with SW books.
2. "Authors" - a new forum (already being tested) with official threads for each author that has contributed to the Star Wars saga. Authors are encouraged to mingle with regular posters; conversation is not limited to SW books.
3. "Comics" - a new forum meant for Dark Horse and Marvel comic series based on Star Wars (Tales of the Jedi, Infinities, the new ongoing, mini-series, etc).
4. The present Lit Forum would become a catch all (named EU Misc.), meant for questions/ideas that would come up but are not appropriate for any of the 3 new forums. Debates would also take place here (canon arguments, inter-EU continuity, etc).

We need no new forums. There's not enough demand for comic discussion to warrant another forum, and the polls are being handled just fine right now.
