I find the reno topic very useful. It would be more impressive if it had it's own major heading with subheadings. Much easier to find stuff as well. It's gettin pretty big.

OK - I'm not opposed to doing anything that might make it easier for people to use these forums. However I don't have time to mess about trying to figure out what sort of sub headings to put in a forum I hardly ever see. Nor do I and the others have the time to sort out such a thing from scratch it will be a pretty big job.
What sort of sub headings do you suggest to make it easier to find specific postings?
Are you (or some anyone else) prepared to volunteer to moderate these new forums to get them initially in order then to keep them in line and lessen the already heavy and mostly thankless workload of and other Admins/Moderatrors.
Cheers - Neil :)
While you are thinking about it Neil, how about a specific forum for hijacked posts. :rolleyes:
People could put them in there in the first instance so that they wouldn't need to be moved when they were hijacked. Seems to make a great deal of sense to me. (which is a worry in itself)
I humbly offer my illustrious services as the Hijacked Posts Forum moderator. :D
Go on, live on the edge for a while :)
Whats involved?Quote:

Each moderator has their own axe. It's just that some have a very big one and others a smaller one that needs a bit of sharpening. But all can wield them when required. Often with very striking results.
Mmwaahahaahaaaaa https://www.ubeaut.biz/laughing.gif
For suggestions for sub heading, You could start with a basic inside or outside reno work. I would consider helping to organise and mod the forum as I plenty os time on my hands at the moment (I am not working anymore studying part time at uni) and have renovated a house before. Would probably need to know what is expected / required first though.
Maybe I could start with a whittleing knife, or a pointy stick.
Al :D
Hmmm, An Irreligious Libertine with a foil outfit as a moderator?
Cool.
I'd suggest subheadings of:
Siteworks (earthmoving etc)
Demolition
Brickwork
Concrete
Timber framing
Steel framing
Cladding
Linings/second fix (ie plasterboard & villaboard & setting thereof, architraves, doors etc)
Cabinets
Plumbing
Electrical
Auxilliaries (Aircon, Aerials, Stereo & TV wiring etc etc)
Maybe too many?? but possibly easier for moderators to have more categories, certainly for users. Or possibly lump services together:
Services (water, gas, electrical, aircon, TV etc)
Or:
Structural
Services
cladding, lining & painting
joinery (cabinets, windows, doors)
I'd put my hand up, but I've really got waaaay too much on my plate as it is :(

Al :p
Kitchens and Bathrooms
Flooring and Decking could be lumped together, they seem to be popular sugjects.
Gees Mick, what are you building?? :eek:Quote:

:rolleyes:
Agreed, most are not even worth looking at.Quote:
