How about cutting back on the new fat you just added.

How about 1 forum that has the last 24 hours posts.......
Unless i am stupid and its already here.....
Just a thought
Thats madd lazy^^^^
Try clicking on 'Today's active topics'

It lists all posts (no matter what forum) in descending order by most recent post.

I don't even bother going into each particular forum unless I'm looking for something specific.

how about a way for us to customize the forums we wanna see in our displays. Like say I wanna drop off the quebec regional since I don't speak or read french fluently. That'd be kinda interesting.
isn't marketplace and classifieds basically the same thing? maybe they should be linked together
On the right hand side of each forum category title you well see a box with a - in it. You can choose what forums categories you want minimize and such.

Nope. Classifieds are people selling things.

Marketplace is the site selling things, i.e. stickers etc....
As Jay mentioned, you can click on the minus box to minimize forums you don't want to see..

and that's why there are more forums being introduced.. to allow people looking for specific information have more convenient means of searching. As the site grows, and we add more information to the site, we're going to need the organization.

Of course, if anything is being underutilized and it turns out to be too complicated, I'll slowly prune the excess.

Right now, it's more a trial period to see what people use, and what we can fill..
The only thing that bugs me is how the ZX3tuning section is buried under 2 other layers.. since there is only 1 sponsor currently, I think we could do with having at least 1 layer taken off, just leave ZX3tuning as the title and have the 3 subforums off there.

Also, I think product reviews could be put into the Technobabble section rather than the marketplace, since it isnt specifically reviews for products sold in the marketplace section.
the quebec section is the coolest, thanks god. :P
Can we move the Quebec forum to the very bottom...it's in the way! :lol:

yeah... it's been buggin' me too.. wanted to keep the sponsors forum there, so when we had 1 or more sponsors, someone could post a general question, and have it answered by any of the sponsors... but it does seem a bit too much right now...

I can understand moving product review to technobabble, but sort of think it's also at home in the marketplace.... let me give this some thought... I'll move things around a bit.

** I also appologize for any confusion... the site is going to be in a state of flux for a bit.. bear with me!
