Forum changes – your feedback needed

[rpm]

Hi folks

MyBroadband’s forums are continually growing, and this causes a problem: A home page with too may forums. I would like to suggest the following changes to make the home page slightly shorter:


Telecoms Regulations forum – become sub-forum of CPA and consumerism
First posts, intros, forum questions – become sub-forum of Off-Topic
Company and people info – become sub-forum of Broadband and IT News articles


Your feedback about these planned changes will be great.

[Garyvdh]

Sounds good.

[Shake&Bake]

No problem with that. Sounds good to me too.

[kilobits]

A change is as good as a holiday...

Sounds just fine to me.

[biometrics]

Sounds good.

Neatness is not only for teh gays.

Also:

Combine "ADSL Discussions" and "Other Internet Related Discussions" - Rename to "Broadband Discussions" Rearrange current sub-forums under the current "Broadband Discussions" into the new areas.

Move the entire "Gaming" forum to a sub-forum of "General Discussions" - WoW and Consoles then become sub-forums of "Gaming"

[FNfal]

All good

[blaaislaai]

It's cool. I don't browse the forum by category. Only through "new posts"

[unskinnybob]

Sure 99% of posters don't even navigate the hierarchy.
Today's Posts / Search.

Yoh! THAT would be like a world cruise!

[Ol' Mean Bastid]

no problemo, I like MickeyD's addition as well

[zizo911]

+1

[DrYes]

+1 to Mickey's idea.
All these 'slow' main topics should go into sub catergories.

Or combine ADSL discussions with. Other Broadband services and rename it to:
"ADSL and Broadband Discussons"

[MickeyD]

I think you meant "Other Broadband Related Discussions."


Or rename it to:
"ADSL and Broadband Discussons"
No. There should be a "Broadband Discussion" forum" where all BB mediums can be discussed, whether wired or wireless.

"Other Broadband Services" should be used for the specific network operators.

Ai..I hate change...but if you have to then I guess it is ok.

As long as I can find my sections still...so Vodacom and Cellular Section must be easily findable (YES THATS A WORD MICKEYMOOSE!)

[undesign]

I like the proposals.

[zaidmo]

All cool, plus mickeyDs

[ponder]

While you are making changes can you please add a cooking/recipe section.

Dunno, I seldom go to the home page

[cpu.]

Sounds good. There's so many similar subforums, new members can't be blamed when posting in the wrong place.

[Magandroid]

Can a "next" or "next page" button not be added as well. It will make much easier to go the next page when browsing on your cellphone.

[buyeye]

Dunno, I seldom go to the home page

There is a reason for that . I look at that long list then tap new posts.

[Wall]

Sounds great

[Aharon]

Yep, sounds ok

[Boris Becker]

Create a new category for FTTH. If you build it, they will come :D

been enough attempts already, so I agree, there's been more than enough foodie threads started, let's have a cooking section

[jingaling]

Ooh yes, food porn would be great!

Me too, 99% of the time.

Oh, and I'm still waiting for a 'subscribe to' button on the mobisite to subscribe to the thread that's currently being read.
