Fans Forum

Grant,

Just want to say that i think the new Fans forum is fantastic. Thanks for putting in the hard work and getting it up on line so Quick, I know you have been working hard on it.

Director Of Football

Yes, thanks, even if it takes an old codger like me some time to work it all out!!!Well done.

yes thanks grant

Grant this new format is superb!!!

I recently moved from the sky sports forum to one set up by a group of people fed up with sky's one. it has a similar forum set up and is really user friendly!!!

Well Done!!

I feel it's a lot better organised and user-friendly and you've not got several different threads all mixed up on one page to sort through.

for example if someone has posted a message on a new topic and we feel it's better suited to another ongoing discussion this can be moved without any problems

hopefully you won't even have much of that to do. with all the sections so clear for threads we hopefully won't see so many 'sub threads' within threrads which lands up with some people going off the subject.

I've also set the topics up so once you have 20 responses it will go onto a new page under the same thread.

Superb stuff!!! means when you come back onto a topic you can skip to a page rather than take ages to scroll down every time!!!

Grant,
Well Done in getting this New Forum set up.
Professionally thought out and well laid out.

Yes this forum is a huge improvement, just getting rid of the pop ups means a lot.

It's also easy enough for registered users to see all new posts when they go back onto the main board.
you just need to click on view posts since last vist and this displays all threads with new posts since you last visited the forum.

Excellent, I hadn't spotted that

at least that way we know which posts need to be reviewed at the same time.

Just about got used to the new layout and yes its a big improvement.
Slightly amused that everyone admitting to their age is either 26 or 27.
Can we have a veteran category for those of us who were that age in the 80's ?
Thanks also to AH for confirming that Insch is in Aberdeenshire.

Much as I like the new set up, I'm not that impressed by the picture of Harlaw Park at the top of the page.

Sort. It. Out.

Looks good and well laid out

I was thinking of changing access controls so members only can view and post on the main board (first team and off-field).
what do other members think?

If there is anything else and other sections they'd like to see added an improved on let me know

I think that would be an okay idea to make them sections members only.

I think the addition of a section for the fans to talk about various other football matters would also work out great.

There has been an increase of members since setting the main board and off-field section for members only.
