Are you guys happy with the new section of the forum????(scott?)

[oblivion]

It seems to be working out very well,and it has seemed to put a halt to alot of confusion in the other sections of the BBS here...........

Also I would like to note that alot of the topics in the new forum are not silly,and seem to be helpful,if not enlightening in alot of cases...............

I say thanks,and it was needed.

[brandon184]

I like it... http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

I like to get to know the people who I communicate to on a forum, on different levels. I would hate to just know someone for their knowledge of the IT industry. I, for one, am interested in, and am interested in hearing the opinions and ideas of other forum members.

Doing just that, allows me to get to know and be friends of some of my fellow users.

I have also noticed the numerous posts in the new forum, which have been intelligent, and mature posts, with intelligent and mature replies.. for the most part. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

I didn't really like the idea of a new forum at the time, but it has really grown on me.. Since at the time, I thought that there would just be a pile of junk here for posts, and I guess I'm wrong!

So far so good.. I like the way it's working out.

[Mntsnow]

Of course I like it! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/biggrin.gif

[OuTpaTienT]

hmmmm, I don't know. I'm still unsure if it was a good idea or not. It seemed like a good idea. But I think I'm finding out more information about these guys than I ever wanted to know. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif Ain't all that bad though. I'm seeing I have a lot in common with many people, and NOTHING in common with a few. But I guess such is life.

[socalgal]

I think as a whole it's working out pretty well; so far so good - as Scott said! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[wtp]

i like it too, but people have to learn to put tech support stuff at technical support as some people still tend to put their technical problems in the general discussion section.

[chipbgt]

This is one of the absolute worst ideas I have seen since "Hudson Hawk"....

just kidding. I love it.

[krusty the klown]

It gets my vote!

The tech discussion definately seems a lot neater without the OT posts!!

[rrick31]

it seems to be working out pretty good.it gives people a place to clowning around,kind of take a break you know.for times when you are pulling your hair out over a computer problem.it is a nice addition to the forum.

[Warthog]

I like it a lot! Although, Outpatient is right: we are learning more about each other *scary*

j/k http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif
Nice to have another Mod also.

[M1pilot]

Originally I had voted against it....I thought it would become a free for all. But I stand corrected. It's a great idea, and adding another moderator was a nice touch too. For the most part, the whole forum is better off for it.

I think nowadays we don't have the personal interaction we used to have, town meetings and just the bunch at the local "greasy spoon" we tend to think our opinion is the only one, this forum gives us an insight to what others feel. believe. and food for thought. as long as we dont say anything to another that we wouldn't say face to face. all will be well, so far I like it. IMHO.

[Ultima]

I'm liking it very much!!!

There is almost no weird posts, which normally would be closed, but they stay away.

It was a good idea to start such a forum.

Keep up the good work Scott, Socalgal and ofcourse since a short while, Mntsnow.
And let us not forget Joel.

[buddmann]

Yes,I like it this way and congratulations to Outpatiant on his title.
SysOpt community even sounds home-like http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[SpookyEddy]

Very impressive.

Iam pleased as punch.

Still its all a bit Spooky.

[jl123]

Yes i have to agree with you guys. I think it's working out very well and seems to be under control and running smoothly. I too notice the threads in this forum to be informative and realistic. Way to go everyone!! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

~Joel(jl123)

[Win_98]

I thought that we have already voted about
this and about 160 people and all said yes?

[jl123]

Well Win_98 this is not a vote. It's whether you are happy with the new forum or not.

Oh i'm so sorry for not giving my opinion. I forgot. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif I think it is working out very nicely and sysopt is a community, and might I add a very special community it's good to be part of. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

*edit* I did give my opinion but I guess i'll add this to it. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[mgordon99]

I give it a thumbs up. The only problem I see is there is a blurry line between General Tech Discussion and Technical Support. Anyone else see this?

[Brydon]

I agree with mrgordons comment but I think on the whole the whole idea has worked very well and thanks to all the hard working staff it has kept Sysopt at the top where it belongs and still moving forward positively. The most positive thing I feel is that it shows that Sysopt has the members interests at heart and it really is a community http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif.

[awwall]

Gets my vote...

Looks like its working out great

aw

[jman01pa]

Two thumbs up! A definite plus.

[Warthog]

Wait!

Scott, you're not holding up your end of the bargain! What about the elimination of post counting in this section? I don't really think it is as necessary as we all thought because there haven't been any problems to this date, but I wouldn't mind seeing it implemented if possible.

Warthog

[zskillz]

scott never made a bargain...
the post count issue only bothers the few of you who still seem to think that it is actually important

-Z

[SysOpt]

Bargain? Hmm.. I said I would do it, but I don't recall it being "my end of the bargain". Unfortunately it's not as simple as hitting a button in a config panel. It requires a CGI coding change, and I haven't had time to do it. I'll do it when I can.

[Snuffy!]

Not too shabby ay?!?! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[barry glisson]

not only should posts not count but any thread moved to here should be deleated except for the header and moved to with post counts subtracted. after a short time I think it would make the admin job a little easier. they wouldn't have to move so many or close the inane threads. I think you can readily see the ones I mean. barry

[oksenior]

I'm new

I've been wrong before but it seems to me that people who frequent these kinds of message boards are
looking to learn something,
looking to help someone,
looking to resolve a problem

this fits that bill for me and is much better than TV these days

OKsr

[alondra]

still A-OK with me http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[chipbgt]

Scott I wouldnt waste your time on it. We all know the importance (or lack of) of post count.

(.....sweet...one more post for me..)


umm...who said that?

[RobRich]

Chip, I thought I was the only one that heard those voices! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

I believe this new OT forum has benefited the board in several ways. Now the OT posts are seperate from people actually needing help, plus the extra interaction here in the community section allows us to know each other that much more. Assuming everything continues as it is, SysOpt.community should definitely be a permanent addition to the Sysopt.com domain.

Later,
