captaintau Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I was thinking that with the volume of reviews that we have, why not a have a dedicated review area on the forum? OR a reviews sub-forum in the SW area. Maybe the same for pirates? Quote

Maybe the same for pirates? Well, the staff frowns on sub-forums. If you wanted to create a reviews index, I'm sure it could be pinned. Yoda has spent a lot of time making nice theme indices and has a reviews heading in those as well. Check 'em out! X-D Lord of Pies & SlyOwl are working on an exhaustive index of Pirate set reviews. Look for it soon, it's beautiful. *wub* Quote
SlyOwl Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 But wouldn't a subforum be rather empty if it was just for reviews? You'd have few posts and few topics...but then again, every now and again a review thread pops up again, so it is a thought... ;-) Lord of Pies is working on an exhaustive index of Pirate set reviews. Look for it soon, it's beautiful. *wub* And me! :'-( Quote

Lord Of Pies Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Hmm..it could work I think, however perhaps it should be divided into sub-forums, like Pirates, SW Castle and the like, due to the vast number of reviews. Quote
Siegfried Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 Honestly guys, it's not going to happen in the short term. There have been a lot of changes at EB lately (and more to come ;-) ) so we probably should let things settle down for a while. Quote
VBBN Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I agree. It would be nice, but with that nice new minifig fourm, I think the forums should settle for a while. @Sinner- I like the little bug in your sig! :-D At first I thought it was a tiny bug on my computer screen! :-$ Quote

Athos Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 I don't know if we need another forum. Though at the risk of being further mocked by Hinckley, I am going to say that I am finding the forum organization a bit messy. I'm against a bunch of new forums, because it seems harder to keep up when everything is fragmented. I don't really care about space or exoforce or star wars reviews, so that's just one more sifting I have to do. And one more forum I have to check. I like to be able to look at everything involving a particular theme in the same forum. How does it work at fbtb? They've got a whole review forum. Though I don't like their 'one thread for one set' policy. That might work well, if you are looking for reviews of a particular set, but I generally read reviews for fun only, and I don't want to sift through pages of nonsense, just to see if there is a new review. Besides, we do have a search function for anyone who is seriously looking for a review. I think an index might be the way to go. Though it would probably be terribly labor intensive. Steve Quote

Batbrick Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 I'm against a reviews forum, its too messy and at the risk of sounding rude I don't want it to be like FBTB, though I doubt we would ever have a "One review per set" and "You HAVE to give a point ranking with THIS system" rules, it seems unnecessary. Just use the search function, and how long does it take to look through each forum anyway? Just a few minutes. Oh, and I hate that Sinner Bug, Arrgh! >:-( :-P Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote
