According to a post somewhere about clans, it says that if you think that your clan should be made an official clan, 'drop a line'. But there is no way of contacting mods, as the help thread is really to do with FM Online, not talking to mods about things like this. Also, I sometimes have a problem where I dont know how big a picture be when I put it on, or whether the formating for links, and what would be great is to test.

So I propose the following additions:

1. Being able to contact others through individual messages (whole forum I am talking about) or otherwise have some sort of topic to ask mods questions outside of FM Online, but sort of to do with it (like above example)

2. Can we have a messy (!!) forum to test certain formatting, maybe 1 for whole of sega forum

3. Somewhere to offer suggestions, because I shouldn't have to make a new topic (Could be this even!)

4. Rather than closing useless topics, could you delete them, because then people will realise there are no stupid topics and wont bother making one, and would also make forum cleaner and easier. If you look at forum now, most topics are closed useless topics.

I guess answers 2, possibly 3 though not the greatest. But 1 and 4 still valid points?

1) Would take up far too much bandwidth for a forum with this many members as things stand & would need a massive improvement to cope with the demand.

4) Some are deleted, it's been tried in the past & quite frankly people ignore thing's no matter what you do because that's what people are like these days, jump in without any care about wether it's right or wrong.

1. Thats what email and various chat programmes are for.

4. Every so often we do a clean up of the forum and delete loads of topics.
