A Review Section Mark Send a noteboard - 09/09/2009 04:03:55 PM
I think reviews are critical for a board like this to work. The problem at the moment is that due to the level of posting (which is great) that a review will quickly fall down the screen and soon get ignored. I think it would be a good idea to announce all reviews (once they meet a certain standard as decided by the admins) for about one week. This way more people will get to see them and hopefully post on them and get a discussion going.

I also think it would be a great idea to have a permanent Review section were all reviews of good quality are placed. That way If I read a book several years after it is published I can go check what other RAFO people thought of said book

Make my threads blink. I am important and as such, deserve a blinking thread. Trim it with fire too *NM* Mjolner - 08/09/2009 10:54:44 PM 300 Views
I'm not an expert, but that doesn't seem like it's possible atm... would be a big change in any case Legolas - 08/09/2009 10:58:06 PM 640 Views
I'd rather have the blinking threads trimmed in fire for my posts only. *NM* Mjolner - 09/09/2009 12:37:00 AM 311 Views
