It would be nice to have the following forum categories added:
Unit balance - Discuss whether a unit is UP/OP etc
Feature request - Request features

That way we could quickly review features/balance discussions that have already occurred, get an idea of whats been talked about, and avoid repitition (its not like this thread has appeared before). At moment its a pain to look over anything posted more than a few days ago. It would also clean up the messy General Discussion forum a bit.

Threads of of these two topics probably should fall under Development rather than General Discussion. Unit balance topics seem to end up randomly between General and Dev. I can see how "Development" sounds too technical for some people so they are not sure where to put it. Maybe your idea would remove any doubts, although I might lean toward "Game Balance" as the name to account for any balance suggestions that might not be unit-related, such as overdrive etc.

I have no idea what the categories are for. I just click on the little forums window on the right side of the homepage until I run out of threads.

AUrankAdminGoogleFrog I assume that was rhetorical, but categories allow you to easily review previous discussion on a particular topic, or to limit the forum posts you like to view based on topic.

...especially when the search function by google on the site is rather poor to find what you are looking for.

also: plz add the google search category "battles", and maybe a filter (like "last 2 weeks only") would be nice too...

For battles: a filter "has a gif by mojjj" should be useful.

Yeah, the only categories that make sense to me are the ones where the discussion is attached to site objects like news / maps / battles / etc.

Taxonomies stink, I'm not even sure of the value of having a separate "strategy" forum. Even "development" isn't terribly distinct (it could be if it was restricted access or something).
