The Jagex Forums: A Disaster Zone of Sub Forums

I took a visit the the Jagex forums to finally change my signature to a B&S one (I haven't even visited the site for about 6 months)
and I found the Jagex has made another un-savoury change, this time to their forums.

Now, instead of simply having a lounge and forums games sub-section, they have:
  • Videos
    Avatars/Signatures
    Creative Writing
    Roleplaying Games
There are so many sub categories there are almost no posts in them!

Their 'feedback' section is even worse!
  • Website Feedback
    Forum Feedback
    Balancing Feedback
    Graphical Feedback
    Gamemode Feedback
    Other Feedback (like there could be any more)
    And Ranked Feedback (have no idea what it's supposed to be)
All they need feedback wise is website feedback, style feedback and general game feedback!

There are many other disastrous sections. I'm glad here at build and shoot we have an easy to navigate interface of 11 upfront categories of relevant information.

Build and Shoot's forums works fine, so why did Jagex think they needed more categories? Did they think, for some bizarre reason, it made them look better? Because those weird blue/white speech bubbles make it look like a semi-finished demo for a forum skin!!

You could always post some feedback on the website feedback section about the excessive amount of feedback subsections

Yeah, well I thought Technical Support would be good, but I forgot about the IRC, which is good for that kind of thing

They have all those feedback sub forums because they know people will complain about almost every part of their game and forum management, as you probably saw there were quite a few posts in there.

From what I saw there is almost 700 threads in their feedback/complaints sub-forum.

To be honest, this thread wasn't to complain, it was to poke fun at Jagex. So yeah
