With the new site changes we should also try to avoid being sloppy.
Is that "Tip" button even useful? I dunno, I don't even use it.
Some of the content in that box isn't even necessary.
Such as:
-Battle (wtf bro)
-Scifi (Isn't that fantasy?)
-Contest (I dont even...)
-Pvp (srsly?)
-Chat (...)
-Utility (....)
-Text (!!!!)
-Chat,utility,and text probably should be in one category or shouldn't even be listed at all.
A whole new look and better organization, would definitely be a good move.

-Scifi (Isn't that fantasy?)Sci-fi (science fiction) is like Star Trek. Fantasy is like Lord of the Rings. From a conversation I had with somebody sometime, those categories aren't anything official. They're basically just random tags that they manually add to games when listing them. |

It looks bad?
That kind of layout is pretty common on A LOT of websites. It shows the variety of games and resources BYOND has to offer. |

...It's right under a search bar. It's not random. Those are commonly searched tags.
Not everything fits into one category. Thus, the entire point of tags. |

You realize those aren't categories, right?
It's a form of search cloud. The more common the searches/plays of games with that keyword, the bigger and more noticeable the text in it. Although the more I think of it, it would be nice to have a list of game categories to select from such as "Shooter", "Arcade", "Survival" and maybe at the bottom have "FanGames". |

Yeah, I didn't know that was the case. I still think it would be more appealing to just have categories, which are organized with a nice look.

Those are tags, or keywords.
