In the navigation bar, I think "Mabination" should be renamed "Forum".
I think it may help visitors find the forum easier if they arrive on the home page, since "Mabination" isn't really that obvious.

Should it be "Forums" instead?

Well, it's one Forum, but I guess Forums could work too. Not sure how it should be.

I agree with this.
Kind of confusing for me too to find the forum from portal page.

I agree, I'm always confused too to know the difference between "Home" and "Mabination".
I see them the same as what should be named.
Fiiiiiiiiix thiiiiiiiis.

Yeah, I agree that it should be "Forum".

I had the same problem. I didn't know where the forums were. xD
Would be good to change it to forum.

I don't get it. Isn't Mabination a forum?
But I don't want to seem like a person who goes against the crowd so
LET'S RENAME EVERYTHING TO BE "FORUM"!

In the Navigation Bar (Home, Mabination, Shop, Members, New Posts, Magnifying Glass), "Mabination" goes to the forum part of the website. New members who initially visit the site on the home page probably don't realize that "Mabination" is where the forum is, since it really isn't obvious.

On topic, GO!
But I agree. Mabination is not just one specific tab, it's the whole website.
Now help me out a bit.
How come some forums called their forum "forums"?
Singular or plural? Which one is correct?
Some examples.
Serebii.Net Forums - Powered by vBulletin
Nexon Forums
World of Warcraft - English (NA) Forums -> Forum Index
Tales Series :: Index
All with "forums" in their links, instead of the singular "forum." Except for Nexon, but even Nexon calls their forums, forums.

Or better yet, put a little forums in the front.
AKA forums.mabination.com or something.

Basically just because language. Same reason people use "data" instead of "datum."
Anyway, I'd say Forum would be appropriate if you specialize in one thing and Forums if you specialize in many things. But honestly, it's just whatever you like really.
