Silly thing...

I keep forgetting that the Gladiator's Forum is a strategy forum in general, not just for pvp. Its the forumname that throws me off, and every now and then I find myself responding to a post like it was meant for pvp, which it was not...

A namechange? Don't know if I'm the only one suffering from this forumblindness, but just bringing it under the attention...

silly me.... I know...

I think when I first read these forums I avoided the Glad Arena too because I was just starting in PvE. I'm not sure what a good name to call it would be though.

Suggestions, going with the Tyria theme:
- The Academy
- Piken Square (nicely bland gathering feeling)
- ......

The Temple of Ages comes to mind, although that connotes a more PvE idea...

I don't know... it seems good the way it is. Gladiators fought animals as well as other gladiators correct? I'm not too knowledgable on Roman pasttimes

i had a similar problem with that forum as well. however, my issue was more regarding the separation between the gladiator's forum (strategy) and the campfire (builds). it didn't make sense to me to separate the two. how can you have a strategy without a build to execute it, and how can you have a build without a strategy for using it? the two are so related that it didn't make sense to me.

my suggestion would be to create a pvp only build/strategy forum and a pve only build/strategy forum. that kind of separation makes more sense. however, this might mean more work for the mods rather than just renaming an existing forum.

The naming schemes are generally more confusing than helpful in my opinion.

That section of the forums has needed an overhaul for a while. Maybe if more people make noise about it something will be done.

Thanks for the change!

Don't know if this thread made the difference, or that is was already longer on the 'to do' list. Doesn't matter, its nice to see the change.
