The new Zelda Universe is here - Feedback and Suggestions wanted!

Lars, about the Interactive Story, Could someone submit you by PM or E-mail an idea for the first chapter, and you choose which one gets posted. Or perhaps get someone like an Administrator or Super Moderator to be in charge of the Interactive Story, since you seem pretty busy. Anyways, AWSOME site!!! Hope the Interactive Story gets up soon, but don't rush.

In the AoL Boss section, Shadow Link's picture is where Thunderbird should be, and there isn't a picture of Thunderbird. I just wanted to make sure to let you know about that.

Thank you. I hadn't noticed.. It's fixed now, though.

From the main page:

<meta name="description" content=",,,,,,,,Zelda Universe - FAQs, Walkthroughs, Extensive Articles, Images, Movies, Humour, Games - All the Zelda info you need!" />
<meta name="keywords" content=",,,,,,,,zelda, cheats, codes, walkthroughs, downloads, forums, zelda 2005, the minish cap, four swords adventures, the wind waker, ocarina of time" />

The commas set off duplicate keyword spam warnings in a handful of the test crawler cases I ran against them. Directory and search web crawlers are paranoid these days, and the few that still give weight to meta keywords are pretty quick to disregard them as signs of potential spam.

Hmm, yeah, I wondered about those commas, and why they were there - The Meta tags are generated by the CMS, so I'll find out how I remove those, because we don't want to find ourselves banned from Search Engines!

:confused: WHERE ARE THE MOVIES!? i dont see any of the old movies from the old zu! i thought that when the new version came out they would fix the ocarina of time ones, but theyre ALL gone now! ich bin traurig (i am sad in german) .

Don't worry, they will be back as well. Movies and Other Games sections are next on my list to revive. After that maybe I can finally start working on some of the new content I've got planned

My feedback: I don't like how it says "ZU Forums" on top of the forum, I think it should say "Zelda Universe Forum".

Don't know if you typed 'forums' by accident, but this is a single forum, not many forums, right? The other sections of this forum are called boards as I know.

Depends, this may be the ZU Message board and all the sub-boards/forums could be called forums. As far as I know the terms are inter-changeable.

I think it's a potato/potato, tomato/tomato thing. No biggie, really.

Message boards and forums are the same thing. I use them interchangably, though generally, "message board" is more formal.

I wouldn't really consider Message boards any more formal, but... that's a moot point.

I prefer using "forum". Gives that Roman vibe... actually, it's just shorter and faster to type, heh.

Of course, that's why I'd like the top banner to say 'Zelda Universe Forum', when people say 'forums' when referring to a single forum I usually am a bit angered.

I think you might have some issues you should talk to someone about..

Anyways, it's gonna stay like it is for now.

mmmm, i thought i was picky with grammar. i dont really care, maybe they should do that when theyre done with everything else. wouldent you rather have it like, finished, then they fix grammar mistakes? thats alll i have to say, oh, and i still want the movies! no jk, take your time, i want the movies section to be without glitches, and im also looking forward to the new content on the site! IM SO GIDDY! lol, that reminds me of conkers bad fur day. and if you dont think its a good game because of the violence, go talk about it in serious discussion.

Well I think that The new ZU is great! Becuase of the memner thing I finally got on the fourms! YAE FOR ZU!

Hmm. Nothing I've really got to complain about. So I'll just say this site kicks major butt!!! The fact that Lars has worked hard on a site for so long amazes me. Keep up the awesome work Lars. I'm really glad to be a part of this site.
