Would You Like An Outfit Subforum?

Hello, Aliyavana here, creator of the outfits megathread which has since then reached 815 posts in one thread https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/394909/outfits-megathread/p1 . I didn't expect this thread to make it to that many people and I thank all the people who have shared their creations with the community. A problem that has since then occured is that there is now 29 pages and 815 comments on the thread. Most people will not bother to scroll through all 815 comments and see all those hidden gems. I request that we get a outfit subforum, we got one for housing after much request, but the outfit system is arguably the more requested and more widely used and to be confined to one thread is meh... An outfit subforum would allow us to open various threads within it like:

Show off your male costume
show off your female character costume
show off your vampire costume
show off your dwemer/clockwork costume etc,

but all those various catagories of outfits can get lost in a 800 plus post thread. This thread can remain and be in the new subforum as a general outfit thread, and that would allow more specific outfit threads to spawn.

    As would housing. housing threads were moved from general to community creations before the housing sub forum , but community creations are were threads go to die, and that is what happened before the housing subforum was created until enough requests were given to make a housing subforum reality. So I request a outfit subforum for a major feature that was far more highly requested than housing.

    Housing had many different ascepts but outfits are pretty linear. Besides your thread how many others were there. There's just not enough in my opinion to warrant actually need.

    there's not many other outfit threads because mine exists, hence the lack of outfit threads. There was no housing megathread to contain the amount of threads that were sent to community creations to die and many threads being moderated to be moved probably hinted that zos needed to create a housing subforum.

    There would have to more demand for such a thing. People asking questions, showing off in their own threads, more variety of dynamics then just show off "outfits.' or it would be regulated into community creations. Sure it would be nice but at this time I don't see a community need.

    Yes please. It would be wonderful if we could just make full posts to our own outfits instead of having one huge outfit megathread. We could of course just do that in general or community creations but it would just be spam there.

    No need. You and the three other people that fill up the one outfit "mega"thread don't necessitate work on another section.

    It can easily fit into another forum, like RP or community creations.

    I think it would be a great addition to the forum as many people can gather inspiration easier than skimming through one massive thread.

    There's a good case for more levels of forums (assuming the software supports them), as this would make sense as a level below crafting. I could see there being other sub-fora there, like Master Writ/Motif collecting/Traits/Daily crafting/Furnishing as well as Outfits.
