More categories under General Discussion?

[YuDanJa]

I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to add more categories to the General Discussion area. It seems that "General Discussion" alone has 300% more threads than the other categories. I find it quite difficult to search for specifics with so many different topics overwhelming them. Sure, there is a search feature, but some times it's not all about searching specifics. Sometimes you want to look under a category and see what's up lately.

Some ideas...

Parts & Accessories Discussion... Intro to new items, Sources & Reviews

DIY and "How To's"... Members can share their hard work and experiences with others...how they installed or fixed parts, electronics, custom work, etc.

And much more, of course.

Good thinking
I think with the more people that join, there should be an expansion within the categories. Another I have suggested previously is adding area categories i.e. Europe, Asia & Australia, North America so that members can discuss area related issues such as ordering parts, and because there is differences in models sold in those areas.

Does the Owner or Administrators even read/participate in the forums?

What suggestions do you have for sub topics?

What suggestions do you have for sub topics?

A "How To" section that can be locked.

This would be a reference by topic for Forum members that details how to perform mods, installations etc..

Thanks

In my first post, I mentioned two that have to do with products/accessories and a DIY/How To. It'd be nice to have a "sticky thread" in the DIY that lists part and product numbers, schematics/diagrams, etc. Maybe with that there'd be no need for products/accessories sections; just review/discuss them under the DIY section.

So... "DIY work, mod's, How-To's, parts lists, schematics/diagrams, new products/accessories, reviews, ...share ideas"

I for one am very satisfied with the "Today's Posts" link on the left side of the page:

Site Navigation > Forum > Today's Posts.

It shows me all the threads from the various forums that have been updated since my last log-in and allows me to choose those I want to review. If any changes are made to this site, I hope to Administrator leaves that feature as it is as I'm a firm believer in the concept of "Don't Fix What Ain't Broke."
