New Forum Sub title : Newsfeed

Postby KIWI34 » Fri Mar 25, 2016 1:43 am

Hello all, i browse the forums on a daily basis looking for new articles to read, i thought maybe we could add another heading into the forum toolbar with board index, forum rules , user control panel etc.

It will be called Newsfeed, and could comprise of a page dedicated to those who want to openly chat with other members or to share FG info that isn't to serious.

Just an idea that popped into my head earlier

Thanks everyone

I think it already exists, under a different name ...

Hangar Talk
Talk about (almost) anything, as long as it is no serious FlightGear talk and does not fit in the other subforums.

yes but Hangar talk still comprises of different topics, a Newsfeed would generally just be a continuos role of ideas where we could all collaborate or comment easily

you're talking about a topic instead of a (sub)forum, then...

what i see is you wanting some sort of live chat area or possibly an RSS feed of new postings... i can't decide which based on your original post...

"Why not?" said Gurder.

well, ya ain't gonna do that on a forum... not without some other software being run to do it and that likely won't even tie into the forum to start with...
