    What if ComputerHope
    « on: May 26, 2008, 03:31:16 PM »
    Okay I was thinking for the time we had off. What can make something better?   So I thought about newgrounds for those who know about it, NOW whats the difference between the way users are kept here an there? Simple CH keeps track of each an every single thing that you post in one forum.  NG does the same but you can shearch for the user an bring up the postings. SO I thought instead of having separate post on the same topic to have it compacted so that it has it by topic rather then what all you had posted an if need be you can see all the post. This way its not several pages if you want to look at an old post.

    I'm not that familiar with the forums on NG and am a little confused on your post. However, I'm assuming it's got something to do with how each users posts are displayed, e.g. your previous posts:

    http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=30633;sa=showPosts

    Unfortunately, changing how these are displayed (assuming no mod available) would be a lot of work. So unless it's something that was demanded by the vast majority of users it's not something that would get done.

        That's why the poll is running if this should take place.  I don't expect it to happen in two days.  All the forums that one user had posted in down to just the topic of the forums like if I had four replies to this one instead of seeing each separate one just one single topic.  If need be see the post that was put by the user.

          you poll doesnt make any sense. "should CH" is not a complete question and it is very confusing. please use proper and complete, sentences.

          I think you are referring to a tree menu type of thread. Standard view and Outlined view.

          I can't stand those BTW....

          I detest Flash sites, I refuse to view them.
          If the web designer can't be bothered to make a proper web site then I can't be bothered to look at it, simple as that.  Why should I have to take a security risk for their sake?
          I also dislike tree menus.
          CH is fine as it is, or it wouldn't be so successful.
          We are arguably the number one free computer help site in existence, judging from search engine results.

            I think that's what I was thinking of.  I understand an it some what works but when I try to find old posting I have to go threw 100 pages about an mite have only a small post that mite help.  I don't recommend flashing it, its good for ads an such but nothing else.
