Has this been suggested in the past ?
A uk.rec.cars.modifications website ?
The usual format - space for a forum, a bit of space for saving images in a gallery ?
Any views from anyone ?
Flame away - persoanlly I prefer web based forums these days, and the fiew I use are very lightly moderated and work just fine.
Seems a bit pointless to have a forum for a newsgroup. OTOH it does help f*ck trolls off.
Makes it a bit easier for pics etc. as said above.
Not particularly fussed to be honest, just seemed like a reasonable idea. It has certainly happened in other groups in the past.
Ok, since you asked : WTF is the point of a web forum for a newsgroup? Ans: there isn't. Web forum on its own - fair enough - but having one as an addendum to a newsgroup is, erm, a bit stupid.
For the images in a gallery thing - I think there's already something isn't there? Or just post links to existing photo sites, eg flickr.
cheers, clive
Why a forum if you've got a newsgroup? I mean, what's the point?
A site/page with FAQs and probably a gallery may make sense, though.
I do apologise.
I appear to have misunderstood the dynamic of the group....
Surely you knew most of them would moan? I mean come on, what do you expect them to do on a sunday? Go outside? :-P
Nah it's a grand idea.
Well a forum means it could be moderated, whereas Usenet is simply not moderated full stop. :o)
We have a picture gallery kicking about... Ron?
there's the gallery here
