Lightsaber forum topic

[Pastor Jedi]

Ever thought about just having a forum topic dedicated to lightsabers both custom and MR?

It's a little too specific really.

 

[Jedi Loreen]

That would only make sense to have a Lightsaber specific forum if this was a site strictly dedicated only to Star Wars things. Or if it had a Star Wars subcategory or something.

 

[Pastor Jedi]

I'm not suggesting the forum be dedicated to lightsabers, only one of the topics. It gets kind of lost when posting and you have to look through many pages because there are too many general posts. You can post something on one day and by the end of the day your post has already gone to the second page.

Maybe the answer is to start a lightsaber specific forum of your own. JC started one once, but quickly got bent out of shape from people stealing images to use elsewhere from his lightsaber site.

Nick started a great blaster forum that is still going strong but blasters transcend Star Wars.

What if there were sub catagories under the Prop Forum

Such as

Weapons
Communication devices
Armor/helmets/clothing
Etc...

That might be an acceptable alternative. It's not movie specific, yet it allows a little more structure.

 

[wuher da brewer]

There is.

Props
Costumes
General Modeling
Studio Scale Modeling

Actually there isn't. My suggestion was stating to add sub forums UNDER the prop forum. Currently there aren't any sub forums.

Sounds like too much hassle to navigate to me its a general prop site too many sub catagories is just more link clicking to get to what you want to find.
If there are specific threads you want to keep track of without going through the pages on the prop forum you can subscribe to that thread.
From a personal view when i look on the forum i just take a look down the list and if i see something of interest i read it if i have to look through a dozen sub catagories on the off chance there is something that will be of interest it would be annoying.

maybe a better categorized 'archive section' with common topics like
-lightsabers
-star wars blasters
would help

 

[ItsThatGuy]

There would be too many topics then... way too many items from WAY too many movies.

If you make one for lightsabers then someone else will want one just for indy hats...and so on...

 

[ortiz34]

i tend to agree but star wars /indy probably be the 2 most popular, and easily 'stickyed', making them easier to find

 

[Smiling Demon]

Yeah, but sticky posts seem to clutter up the first page in a forum and the newer posts get shoved to the 2nd page!!!

Oh MY. You might have to go the SECOND page. Wow, what a hassle. :rolleyes

 

[IndyFanChuck]

hahahaha

Your sense of humor is just like mine.
