A lot has been changing around Empirekicking lately 👀

I've been working on the forum structure and giving pretty much everything a proper reshuffle. The aim is to make the forum feel like an actual community rather than just a place for my own streams and flights.

There are now proper sections for Empirekicking, Flight Simulation & Aviation, Creator Central, Community & Interests, Community Events and Support & Feedback.

Creator Central has also had a big upgrade with places for YouTube, Twitch & Live, Podcasts, Blogs & Writing, content creation, equipment, editing, social media, collaborations and sharing your content.

The aviation side has been cleaned up too, with areas for MSFS, Prepar3D and other sims, IVAO & VATSIM, online flying, real-world aviation, hardware and aviation screenshots.

I've also put Community Events into its own section so things like group flights, gaming sessions, challenges and other community activities have one proper place instead of being scattered around the forum.

But I'm not finished yet 😂

I'm still working through tags, labels, icons, descriptions, permissions, board arrangements and the smaller details that you probably don't notice until you actually start using the forum.

I'm also still playing around with the homepage and how everything is laid out to make it easier to find things and hopefully make the whole place feel more alive.

So yeah... the rebuild is well underway.

The main structure is there now. The rest is basically me going through everything with a fine-tooth comb and getting it all working properly.

This is only the beginning. 👀

More changes coming soon.
