Phil Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 There isn't a short answer to the FB vs Forum battle. In my mind there has to be some form of integration with a particular FB Group, so when a person posts a question on FB it is posted to a forum and vice versa. A reply to the FB post adds a reply to the forum, a reply on the forum adds a comment to the FB post. I'm not even sure that's technically possible? I HATE Facebook as a platform for car discussion, it just doesn't work. Good luck finding a post you made a couple of years ago, let alone someone elses, for example. People no longer retain information, they just ask the same stupid questions, over and over.NailOn Head.Facebook/instagram for the latest and greatest bit of stuff but it's fleeting, passing and nowhere really to store information.Forums are ideal for storing information - K20a is the bible for hondasToyotagtturbo arguably was the bible for starlets until owner/search function both packed in.That's what ukso should be aiming for if they want to stay useful, embrace the information vault model.A starlet info hub manned by helpful responsive folk. You don't have to answer the same question but merely link relevant threads or posts to provide 'how to' or answer 'why is my...' type questions.Competing with Facebook is impossible, being different is the key.Talking garbage on here constantly and desiring traffic isn't the way imo.Think Long term relevance.Phil Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Addymk2 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Another idea... But it will be difficult to implement...When creating a new thread, scan for buzzwords in the title/body which throw up a series of links to similar topics. Potentially ranking them in terms of popularity/page views. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Potentially ranking them in terms of popularity/page views.Thats a great idea! And saying that maybe a "like button" or something similar as i liked the above comment but didnt really need to comment, but had to show i liked the idea James Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PPSR05 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Wether it would be to post here or for the sellers maybe possible parts for us n/a owners rather than most stuff available being for turbo owners. Just a thought. Thanks. Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddox710 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 So guys what's the conclusion of all this?? Anything going to get done? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Come mods get a weekly bonus ball on the go I want to win some parts oh and free stickers for all my awesome ideas Edited June 27, 2017 by Whitenoize Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Ill make a list up and bring it up with the admin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 So in summary ideas that have been suggested, these will all be put forward but obviously some may not even be possible.Facebook to forum intergration, - Qs on fb auto post here and answers here auto post on the fb post.Owners registry gt/glanzas/sr'sDrop the inactive traders or ones that dont offer discounts, GB's or new products occasionally - new traders with new products - n/a parts specialist Weekly bonus ball for car parts (maybe suplied by a trader?) Betting sub page/beat the bookiesInstant messenger to allow quicker responses and phone notifications. (Like facebook messenger)Shows -have area mods (small ukso banner for each maybe for local shows)-more local meetups-large general meets section with fields to fill in on the post to give full information.-annual eurotrip or run to the sun style rallyPhoto comp - themed weekly shoot- wheel weds, TBT, front end fri etcProgess of the week threadMember only GB'sGame section - game of the weekStreamline photo uploads - larger limit?New more active mods (we are here honest )Stock up the club store, air fresheners, t shirts, stickers, key chains, new products.Gallery tab for starlet porn!Quick join tab for facebook users looking at becoming a member, just add username.Limited browsing for guests (ie. 5 topics) before being prompted to join.Embrace the information vault. - team or users just to link topics to fresh questions. Thread creation for technical questions. - auto scan new topic title for buzz words and link similar topics (auto search) maybe just a prompt suggesting trying the search bar for key words? - ranking system for technical threads/how 2'sComment appreciation button (like button)Ass and tittiesI think that covers most of it, any other ideas ill keep adding them to this list as its a quick reference for all of it.

Whitenoize Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Tbh I think the bonus ball should be ran by the club staff and not the traders make a few pounds profit on each draw and invest the money back into the forum Edited June 27, 2017 by Whitenoize Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) We also need to address how we upload pictures to the forum ie make it easier Edited June 27, 2017 by Whitenoize Quote Link to post Share on other sites
