I think we should add a Review Forum. I have posted several, others have posted lots of them and many other people might be encouraged to post them as well.

Just a thought.

Good idea. Yes, a template would be nice. When can we expect you to have it ready? :)

Probably need a moderator for the forum as well. Someone should ID and move related threads in there as well.

Thanks for volunteering Cam... That is right up your alley!!!!

If we can get someone to watch over it and take it on, I will take it up with Chris and Loren and see how soon we can get it up and running.

I will moderate just that forum if you need someone. I have no interest in moderating the forums as a whole though.

This has now been added and the drop down nav bar modified

When I get some time, I'll move the recent ones.

Great idea to see what works for some and what does not work so well for others.

I would like to see that as well--
also, maybe a review forum for LFS's around-?? Something civil-but allows people to review their experiences, good or bad about any store around-but again, with rules so it doesn't turn into bashing-

I think you have to let those reviews through though. Good and bad need to be there. It would be nice if we had a star system with an overall vote tally as the rating, but for now just getting some reviews in is good. I think if someone posts that a CPR backpack is the best skimmer ever, a lot of people will smack it down in the thread.

Hey Cameron... You could use the "rate thread" drop down box at the top of the screen. Each person could give a star rating to rate the review and reviewer....

thats not a current option for all users. I can add that for that particular forum. Or all forums for that matter. You can't rate an individual post, just the thread.
