Both. and I want to see same forum style as here, only with backend improved
and better search functions. I love how a post can split into two discussions
and can easily keep track. Single track you cant do it. And backwards timewise...
yeah it just does not make sense at all!

Dagsbricks already posted a good start of things that are sub-par with the MOC
forums.

LOL - might be more productive to list off what you _do_ like about the MOC forum.
Looks like you just about requested it to be exactly like the BL forum (not that
I am against that).
Niek.

The MOC shop needs it's own dedicated sub forum in the boards. Please give
us one.
|
It has its own forum. The worse forum I have ever seen, but it exists.
|
Just found it, but that is not what I was thinking about though. I feel the MOC
shop needs to have it's own category here in the main bricklink forum.
|
Agreed. Also also keep this forum format. I love it. Moc page is supposed to
have structure of new bricklink. I guess it includes that supersucky forum there.

That you didn't see the list of complaints about the MOC forum in the MOC
forum might be indicative of its problems:

Dagsbricks already posted a good start of things that are sub-par with the MOC
forums.
http://moc.bricklink.com/pages/moc/comm/forum_view.page?id=1
I'll summarize what he wrote:
1 .Comments are limited to 560 characters? Many many posts need to be much longer
than that.
2. A one line text entry field is just wierd? Should be a text box like in this
forum. If you write past the one line it just scrolls and you can't look
back at what you wrote?
3. A new tab opens everytime you click on a forum thread. Why? Most people know
how to use back in their browsers. No need for a new tab
Now I'll add some new ones:
4. This community is used to a threaded style board. Using a flat style makes
it hard to see who replied to who and makes it hard to have a conversation.
One thread per page is fine, but there needs to be some indentations between
posts or at least add the post that was replied to in quotes so that you can
somewhat follow the conversation.
5. What posts have I read? Which posts have new replies? I just clicked on
a few posts, closed the 5 new tabs it created. Reloaded the base forum page,
and the posts I already clicked on didn't change color or anything? How
do I know what I have already read?
6. Loss of Profile info in post. This is supposed to foster community spirit.
Was nice in every post to be able to quickly see a users feedback rating as
well as a link to their store. In the new forum all you see at a glance is their
pic and their username? You have to click on their name to see any of their
info, but even then it only seems to show MOC info. I hope when this forum is
integrated into Bricklink 2.0 we will have more info available about them as
a seller/buyer since that is the focus of this site.
7. No way to preview your post
8. Doesn't interact with the database. No way to link Set/Part numbers like
you can here. ie
9. No image linking / uploading?
10. Doesn't auto-resolve html links. In this forum you just copy and paste
a link and it automagically makes it work. There you post a link and you would
have to copy and paste it again.
Well that is my start of what is wrong with the MOC forums. Hope that helps
get you started. I'm sure some others will think of more things

| I think the fact that new posts appear at the top is a bit frustrating. I don't
post a lot to the forums, but I do read posts frequently. I don't have the
luxury of sitting at a computer all day to keep up with new posts, so I often
read an entire thread at once. Having to scroll down to the bottom and work
my way up is frustrating because the initial posts you see don't really make
much sense without the context of the previous posts. I do think it would make
a lot more sense to have the thread open with the original post and then thread
down in order from there.
I don't have a much experience with forums as a lot of other members here,
but I can't think of any threads I've ever seen that run backwards like
that.
Just my two cents...
Thanks,
Melissa
