Agreed, but that’s the opposite of what Fantomas seems to be asking for.
It's what ElJeffe described as something that would "look pretty weird."
Point being that no, it doesn't look weird. It looks fine, having a title for the subforum, then a clear statement of the intended content, followed by a more detailed description.
I’ve been sold on the whimsical arcade names with highlighted tag and full text description after that, based on the mocks.
I thought we’d have to forego the flavour to get a better reorg but it’s not that hard to keep both and have it clear if you, you know, actually draw simpler categories than before.
I like the normal bold text version (first pic), the orange bold text draws too much attention - actually more attention than the main title, and the orange color means unread posts in the left-side icon.

Oh didn't know that - in that case I would advocate for another color, but I definitely think the tag should be colored so as to stand out from the descriptive text better.

I'm generally assuming all colors are for contrast or randomly chosen only. I know we've got some folks with experience handling accessibility requirements so I'd want folks like that to weigh in before we finalize anything
maybe the real panopticon was the friends we made along the way

What you posted looks good. I think because it doesn't scan to me as two titles, it scans as a title followed by descriptors.
If someone wants to call that two titles, fine by me!
Would you say I had a plethora of pinatas?
Legos are cool, MOCs are cool, check me out on Rebrickable!

Alternate idea - color both the main and subtitle based on read status?

Would it change to unread if someone makes a new post in the sub-forum?
This all looks great, but I'll mention it again - I suspect that if there is a "today's posts" or "new posts" option, I'll probably never look at the main forum index.

i mean new people are going to be functionally non existent and we will all memorise the locations, so while i think accessibility is important, stressing too hard about getting it all perfectly right is a bit of a muchness.
constantly changing the locations of subforums should be considered an act of war though

Naturally we should order subforums like we do threads, the most recently posted in one goes on top

It's better than not having it colored, but honestly I don't care for it? I'd prefer a different color for the tag from the name and the descriptive text.

Maximum clarity at the expense of "whimsy" and "flavor".
Personally, I think the screenshots - especially with the color for emphasis - strike a good balance.

I'd also consider a measure of average post quality, the Positive Reactions Per Post score
Evaluation of Post's Entertainment and Engagement Number.

So you're saying the bigger the Positive Engagement Number In Situ is, the higher it rises?
is this a farscape reference? in 2025? if so I love it
