Raspbernie Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Hey everybody. I'm thinking about making some adjustments on the Message Board due to sheer size of the community and number of posts. I made some cosmetic adjustments this morning to the Main FORUM Page to set the stage for more changes. How do you feel about breaking up the main Message Board into sub-categories? Something along the lines of MUSIC/IN CONCERT/ASK ERIC— Of course, I could always just leave it just the way it is :-) What do you think?

mellie Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 I think breaking it out in sub-cats is a great idea. Sometimes I go back a month later to verify something I read (as opposed to something I dreamed up) and it would make it easier to search categories. You could have one sub-cat called Statistics by Don Keep them all together, you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill C Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 I think it's a god Idea too. Especially the ask Eric thing. I love looking at his responses to anything and this way it would all be in one spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted March 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Okay. ASK ERIC is sort of a no-brainer, so I'm going with that. I'm also going to break Community into two parts: Music and Everything Else. There's lots of talk about non-Eric/Raspberries bands/music and it seems to make sense that those posts belong together. I'll set it up and let's see how we like it. It'll take a little while to move posts to where they belong, but on first glance it looks promising :-)Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy K. Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Definitely an improvement, Bernie!......makes it easier to look back and find a specific post.... Hard to look for info on NASCAR, when you are dealing with a list including Gary Puckett and Rush!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy K. Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Also, "Ask Eric" is a useful category.....he seems to be reading the board more than myself or most other people, as of late...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill C Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 So much better Bernie!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kiwi Connection Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Kia ora Bernie, Have just navigated my way round the new fotmat and I think it's great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlene Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I agree. It's great, Bernie! (AND new graemlins ?? too cute) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poor4Life Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Bernie, what if you titled the catagories after Eric's songs? "Music" could be "That's rock n Roll", "Ask Eric" could be "All By Myself" and so on...Just an idea...Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Thanks for the suggestion, Jeff. Looks good. What does everyone think?Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danmichel Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Bernie...The changes you have made make alot of sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Looking good! It's much easier for us to find certain subjects and no doubt easier for Eric to answer questions without having to scout around for them. Congratulations for taking it to yet another great level! --Darlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raspbernie Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Hey! Check out the nifty "New Message Board Topics" box that I just added to the top right of the MAIN PAGE of EricCarmen.com! It's a dynamic feed that updates as new messages are added to the Board. Pretty cool, eh? Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poor4Life Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Looks great Bernie, glad I could help out if in even some small way!...JeffBTW, I love the title for collectors corner, "Take it or leave it"! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LC Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Jeff, that was a great idea, and Bernie, great execution. It was awesome before; now it's even better. And wow! Seems like it's drawing a crowd... (100-plus guests on a Sunday afternoon?)--LC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Nice job, Bernie. Can you imagine, with all the members now, if it was still the old format; we had only one place to post, and it would be disjointed and hard to follow. Now there are SEVEN places to post. Hypothetically, if you had the last post in all seven categories, what would that be called? Kirk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
