    I have a forum of my own but it's only for my family and relatives. The forum is mainly about the bible and God. I don't think anyone would be interested in something like that on a Pokémon forum like PC. Where this would go maybe in the "Off-topics Discussion" board. How it would be ran and what events would people enjoy I don't really know since it's different here. On mine every two weeks we would pick a favorite Christian song or bible verse then discuss about it on why it's our favorite and so on.
     
    Asian dramas! As much as I'd like to stick to just jdramas, I know there are a lot of other people who are fans of other kinds of asian dramas besides Japanese. Bring on the K-dramas, T-dramas, C-Dramas, P-Dramas - whatever other asian dramas out there.
     
    I just put up a suggestion for a board/sub-board to spread the word about new Pokemon events that have recently been announced, I'd probably like it to be in the 'Wide World of Pokemon' board. It would have a separate post per event that could be updated with information as it becomes available like OT, Trainer ID,move seta and such so people could check there's against it. And maybe the occasional give away :)

    Ohh or maybe the legend of Zelda :) I love those games
     
    I'd have a sub-forum for Pokemon Manga, run similar to the Pokemon Anime section with threads for all the different series plus general discussion on characters and art and stuff. Would give Manga more value and make it easier to find info or start/join discussions than a single thread or mixed in with other topics. There could be contests and readathons and the like!

    https://www.pokecommunity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=45 It was shut down a while back though :(

    Me, I'd have a forum specifically dedicated to programming. I know C&T accepts programming topics, but it would be pretty neat to have a whole forum dedicated to it :) Also, the various categories within General Media would be great as their own forums--music, TV, books, and all that--but again, the necessity of that is questionable since there's already a place for them on the forum.
     
    I would have a forum section set up just for events. Instead of having the one thread where the Content Team posts up links to events we could an entirely new forum or subforum for it. I kinda liked the old structure of when I first joined where "The Bulletin Board" (or whatever the site Announcements were) was at the top of the "Community Square". It's fine where it is now but I just thought it was kind of an awkward layout when I came back and saw it.


    If I could make my own separate forum I would introduce a "Community Events" subofrum. This could be a forum on its own under the "Community Square" header or even a subforum under "The Bulletin Board" forum section. It would work like this:

    a.) Events that are going on in forums would be posted and hosted in their own respectable forum section.
    b.) Then after these forum events and threads are up, the Content Team or Staff or whomever would post the event in a quote as a thread the "Community Events" section so that it would be easier to see. Then they would post a link so that members could transport to the thread in whatever section the event was being held at.

    This way all the events would be in an agglomerated form, and would be easier to access and see. The forum is so big that even people that are active have a hard time seeing everything. It would be similar to how we have a section for the GT, even though obviously events don't go on as much outside of GTs a section like this could still be convenient. Just some thoughts I've had lately.

    A fun idea would to be to have an entire section just for shipping. xp
