Post subject:  Thoughts on organization

So, I've been trying to think about what the best way to organize this forum might be.

In the first place, I think there needs to be a great deal of attention given to the "feedback forum" portion. In addition to comments about the forum itself, this would include comments on the LDDb.com user interface ; ideas for new features or changes in existing ones ; possibly requests for account support ; possibly discussions from time to time about individual shop transactions or buyers/sellers, although that can get very touchy.

I think there's also value in having some specialized areas. One for "technical aspects", for example, covering anything from theory to disc mastering & pressing to player modifications, and another just for Hi-Vision/MUSE/HDVS related topics (hardware, software, history, &c). Others might be based around specific interests which overlap LD collecting strongly, such as anime, or music videos, or Criterion & other special editions.

I agree, one forum should be about the LDDB itself - usage, interface, feature requests, etc. (maybe some deserve subforums). Also like the idea of forums for specific genres.

Definitely want some hardware forums - perhaps one for player discussions in general, and another for troubleshooting / repair - and maybe one for buying / selling / trading players.

100% agreed with Publius.

The LD players selling/trading should be done via LDDB shops as Julien already has preapared it ...and maybe it will be activated before XMAS 2019 ...

I just need days of 48h packed in 24h. That would be great!

Anyway, did a first pass at creating some common/generals forums. We'll see if they prove useful or if some splitting/merging will eventually take place.
