Petrolhead Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Maybe its time to split chit chat into a couple of sections. One for 7 specifc threads and the other for general chit chat. Say one called "7 Life" and the other "General/Off Topics" NE7Club Web Site R5 no 65 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wile7 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Good idea . There is a lot to trawl through after a couple of days absence and if, like me, you tick the 'notify me when someone replies box' I get tons of links - most of my postings are indeed 'chit chat' but I enjoy (and learn) from the '7 Life' type postings; Wile aka Dave Ardley.

Petrolhead Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 I assume Barry did like the idea or has not seen this NE7Club Web Site R5 no 65 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkprincess Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I'll second this Really getting quite fed up with CC now with threads about socks, marriage, central heating systems etc..........I'm even looking at Techtalk now for more car related discussion and considering I built my own car from new, it's never broke and I don't do upgrades so that's not much use either Same old names on CC are spouting all this largely useless drivel, many with thousands of posts to their name and no quality to match their quantity ☹️ Edited to say: I've just read the first page of Chit Chat, currently page 1129 and dating back to late 1998 (by mistake if I'm honest) and every topic was Seven-related ❗ RW04FUN Edited by - Rich Watson on 26 Nov 2005 21:40:53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Manager Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 done. It will probably take a while for everyone to start using the new forum, so please be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caterhamnut Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Good move Barry - the sheddie types had taken over 😬(though I confess I may have encouraged them with my 'stickies' thread - sorry!) www.mycaterham.com here 88,500 miles -1st 1.6k Supersport, '95 Motor Show car Edited by - angus&tessa on 27 Nov 2005 01:21:58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caterhamnut Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Barry - just to clean up the drop down menu, assuming Norman does not need it any more, maybe the 'Jacks' forum can be deleted? And in fact the Radtec one? What is the difference between 'Feedback' and 'Suggestions' - combined into one perhaps? Just a thought whilst you are on the general house cleaning.... www.mycaterham.com here 88,500 miles -1st 1.6k Supersport, '95 Motor Show car Edited by - angus&tessa on 27 Nov 2005 01:23:56 Edited by - angus&tessa on 27 Nov 2005 01:25:40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrolhead Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 Cheers Barry Maybe an idea to put it either above or below chitchat and rename chitchat to 7chat. And to keep an eye on power buys have a powerbuy section in the Market Place NE7Club Web Site R5 no 65 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myles Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 And in fact the Radtec one I hope the info. is still available somewhere... ...someone is quite likely to want to pick this back up next summer. Being as we're getting so many wishes being granted, how about the one I posted yonks ago about having the 'topic notification' email headers including some indication of which thread they relate to...

Petrolhead Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 Well we tried Barry but the general feeling is put it back to normal I still think it was a good idea and had reacted to a feeling on one of the threads. It was not exactly rocket science just a way to keep non 7 related info away from 7 related info. Whats interesting is that within a few days there was already 2 pages worth of topics so given time it may have worked. Not everyone wants to read general non 7 related topics but I must say that they tried this in 7 tourque and failed also. In its current state it is confusing as there are OT topics still within Chit Chat which confuses users. NE7Club Web Site R5 no 65 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Manager Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Peter, We have tried, but it would appear that there are those that aren't even prepared to try. Frankly I find it pathetic that some are so determined not to make it work they won't even give it a chance Myles, I've one or two other pressing items on just at the moment, if i get a chance after we've set up the new servers, that will be the first thing that I look at.

Petrolhead Posted December 7, 2005 Author Share Posted December 7, 2005 One thought barry. Could we now call Chit Cat, 7 Chat, this may help with the confusion. Is it then possible to move the O/T Topic from there to the OT Section [stands back] NE7Club Web Site R5 no 65 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
