EG Redesign - Ideas and Suggestions?

[Drashner1]

So - to keep things moving here...

2) Re the pain points/desired enhancements in the existing website - addressing this to all the folks here (or who can come here) that have raised issues leading to this thread - it sounds like it would be helpful to compile a list of these so we can provide Trond a concise description of the 'problems we are wanting to solve'. It might work better to discuss/compile that in the Discord and/or via forum DM to myself/other editors and admins and then bring the finished product here so it isn't spread across multiple posts in this thread. Perhaps we could agree on a due date for it to be posted here in that case?

So far, I've had a couple people contact me via DM with lists of 'problems we are wanting to solve' and no one has raised an objection here. I did get a question about whether I preferred Discord or forum DM to which I replied that I like the forum, but realize a lot of people like discord and am fine if they want to use that for the 'discussion leading to list' part of things. At the end of the day, I just want lists of suggestions delivered to myself or other staff (Editors or Admins) so we can create an organized list on this thread without cluttering it up with a lot of discussion posts that work toward the lists.

With that in mind - two things:

a) Does anyone have any objections or better ideas to the suggested process above? If so, please speak up.

b) Assuming no one has objections and with an eye to keeping this ball rolling, I'm going to propose that we set a deadline of July 31st for people to compile and submit suggestions with the goal of posting a combined list by 8/7. If anyone has a problem with that, please speak up. Silence will be assumed to = assent.

Thanks!
