Are there too many sections on here?

The poor moderators seem to spend much of their time moving threads from one section to another in an attempt to keep the forum tidy. 

Could reducing the number of different sections make their lives a bit easier, and also, by reducing the available choices, enable posters to post in the correct remaining sections in the first place. ??. 

Ps. We probably already know what the small TFIP brigade think, but it would be interesting to hear from the normal members. Wink

Agreed. The sections are about right,  but a quick index at the start indicating new threads and the subject matter might help.

I fully accept and apologise for past indiscretions but I think that the above would help.

The Forum is great anyway, but is not beyond improvement.

Well, we're just going into the final part of the first quarter...the time line which we were given for improvements/something new? If the recurring faults could be fixed I think the forum is ok too.Smile

No the number of sections is fine, it is just the lousy software which makes finding posts both old and new difficult/tedious.

Google is pretty good a sniffing out old posts but its a hack to spot the new ones especially those added to old threads.

TF have you never been on any other forums, this one is technically one of the very poorest?!

EJB986  yes of course I have,  and yes, many others have some better bits than this one. BUT all things considered I still prefer this one.  For the most part it is good natured, but even when swords are crossed I don't think it becomes overly personal.

As I said, for me at least,- the CC Forum is pretty good. It needs some much spoken about improvements, but in the fullness of time..............

The forum "Caravan Chat" run by Dianne and Bugs, has just exactly the display of new posts  you would like Navigateur.  Perhaps the CC could follow their example. You can have a look on - http://www.caravanchat.org.uk/

Write your comments here...Looking at that forum it has the same names as people on here and looks more confusing than this one.  So same names same ideas or lack of so whats going to be different?

This forum has rather less sections than most. I think we could do with a Home Technology section added to General Chat but that is just my view. Hopefully when we get the new forum we will have the ability to view new posts which is by far the easiest way to view a forum on a daily basis. Unfortunately the current Latest Activity is not really up to the job as it shows all manner of things, when someone likes a post which we don't really need to see.

TF I certainly agree that the membership is really good, even though many are fanatical Francophiles which, I believe is incurable, but there are so many faults/problems on the site.

No....New post or todays posts button ...Can't post images...No PM facility...Links not posted live...plus!!!!.

However we have 'Champions' .........I wonder why no other forums have 'Champions'?
