wasp Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Wasn't referring to you Reef BTW. Well Caryl says probably no thread splitting yet, but one thing that could be a good idea, is a guide somewhere, for people wishing to start. Have seen so many new people over the last few months all asking exactly the same thing and with only a few regular posters here there is not so many people to answer. A guide could answer basic questions then the person can start a thread for their more specialised questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reef Posted August 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Think Tank (Advance Topics) Not to sure about this section, most advanced, most advanced hobbyist tend to use overseas web sites for this and advance sections dont really get much activity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puttputt Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Excellent idea puttputt. A Experts section would be a good idea as we do have the most expertise on this site which does not get utilised enough. Expertise??, you maybe, and wasp who I PM with. Anyone else, don't think so.

Caryl Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 "No threadsplitting yet" was a personal opinion Why doesn't someone produce a basic beginners guide which could be stickied to the top of the thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camnbron Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 So if the splitting into sub-categories is to go ahead, would it be for going forward only or will all historic posts be moved into the most suitable section? It would be a tedious job but would be much appreciated by people looking for information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilson Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 it would be a long and tedious job but there is so much info in many of those posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reef Posted August 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 It would be a massive job to split the old threads into categories. Maybe the solution would be to split a few months and put the rest under general. The past information is good as the same thing always comes around. You dont seem to get many new topics that have not been covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 an incredible amount of work sorting old threads, would take someone with dedication and a passion to see changes made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camnbron Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Another way could be for the "lucky" mod to select posts that are of use and can fit into a sub-category and move those, leaving the remaining posts in the parent/general category. To assist the mods experienced reefers could scour the posts and pm the above mentioned mod with links to those posts and suggestions of which sub-category they would fit into.

dogmatix Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 I would just put all exiting threads under generall reef topic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volkster Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Would be nice to separate the threads, time and time again I've tried to search for some old threads and it's been a hassle. Categorising it is way better, easier to navigate through, etc :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lduncan Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 I think the phpbb search feature will be fixed at some point, which will help a lot with searching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cees Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Let me just put in my 2 cents. Yes, I'm upgrading the site . Those of you who know phpbb know that the next version is about to be release. I've work with the beta and rc-versions. All looks great. The phpbb search function will work again and will make searching a lot easier. Reorganisation of the forums could coincide with the software upgrade. Discussions like this topic are a great help in deciding how to arrange the site. Thanks for all your input. Keep it coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
