| | There are certainly some improvements to be made - pinning posts, notification
/ subscription plans, ability to edit or completely remove posted material -
but most of what you are asking for here can already be done.
First, the BrickLink Discussions Forum is actually many individual Forums all
joined together, including hidden Forums backstage for our community admins.
If you don't wish to read everything, start on this page and read only what
interests you:
https://www.bricklink.com/messageTopics.asp?utm_content=subnav
Second, you can customize the Forum to your exact specifications, including viewing
each thread without the replies. You can also block certain Forums (e.g. sales
posts). See the settings on this page:
https://www.bricklink.com/messageFilter.asp?viewFrom=P
I've never seen a Forum with this level of user customization, and I believe
most members don't even know about these options. Try out these suggestions
and see if that helps your impression.
I have been reading the Forum consistently for over 10 years, and I've noticed
that like rainy and dry periods with the weather, Forum participation ebbs and
flows with time. And if by "community involvement" you mean people like Foster
and Dan/Jon beating each other up on a regular basis, that sort of behavior isn't
tolerated anymore.
|
It might benefit the regulars and newcomers if this was added to the top of the
forum with links below to a shortlist of FAQs. And a hide option, if possible.

I know this is a difficult request and it is probably impossible to find a definitive proof, so I don't mind if it will be rejected. But I'd like to hear at least an opinion on that. 
|
I tend to agree with your assessment, but changing the inventories should come
down to proof like all other changes. If it isn't really in any inventories,
then they probably don't exist. I have a feeling it should be an undetermined
entry.
Cheers,
Randy

Yes, that’s why new ones are always popping up.

post.
|
And there are no notifications for private messages (took me months to see I
had some), and those can’t be deleted (well, you can, but they are still there).
I actually rather like the mailing-list / usenet look of this old forum. And
the macro tags and the inventory change messages….

Just like to add that our forum has all the functionality of this one as well
as the ability to edit, add attachments, conduct polls, plus more and its free
software - phbbs forum. It took our web guy an hour or so to get it installed
and me about a day to learn all about it (and I still don't know all there
is to know) […]

Take a look at http://forum.bricklink.com/ ….
