Forum Subjects

[GHMBO]

Hi All
I seem to be noticing a blurring of forum subjects. I find that similiar posts are appearing on the Post Your Micro Pictures, Park & Backyard Flyers, and Electrics as well as others. I am not a nit-picker,but if this continues, why not have only one forum so that we will not miss a post. I hope that I am not out of step and am not the only one that senses this trend.

Hi GHMBO,
Good point. I have seen the same trend, but find it difficult to think of a reasonable way to have clear differences. We might be at a point where choosing different labels for one or more of the topics would be helpful. I believe the folks that set up this board anticipated that the "Electrics" section would be used by folks witnh models larger than park flyers. Sorting out the identity of the picture section is another tricky area. Anu suggestions would be welcome.
Regards, Dave

Hi Dave
I was hopeing that the "Electric" forum would be for the electrical equipment postings ( motors,batteries,RX,ect):the "Photo" forum for examples of building: the "Park & Backyard" as a catchall. I can see that kit and scratch building are picking up and we may need a "How-To-Do" forum and maybe a hobby entry level forum. I can see that we have a lot of "lookers" who need to be encouraged to join in. I also notice that the threads that show construction techniques get a lot of viewing hits and few posts. I was hopeing that MicroFlight would notice the trends and take advantage of the interests shown on this board. They are lucky to have you as a contributor since you seem to be in the mainstream, otherwise they would head off in an uninteresting direction.
Best Reguards

Hi GHMBO,
Thanks a lot for the insights. I am going to take this up with the "front office" the first of the week. Maybe we can make title changes and even possibly an announcement or two to get more mileage out of the forum.
