+ PureBasic
+ Programming
- Announcements
- Application Programming
- Game Programming
+ Miscaleanous
What do you think about it ?

I think, the specific OS Pages (or just one special oe for Linux) is nessecary, as in
the last weeks, a lot of Linux users have joined, and it would be very confusing
if Linux/Windows Stuff is in the same forum (so everybody needs to say what OS he uses all the time)
One seperat Linux Section would be good.

Hi,
I think that the forum improvement has to take a few points as priorities:
1.- This forums are different from typical forums, since we are not just 'talking'. Then OLD posts are very valuable to everyone.
I think that the organization of the info must be done having in mind the SEARCH option, not just the browse feature. Then the SEARCH feature must have a way to discriminate the OS.
2.- It will be nice if the posts could contain some 'keywords' tag in where the ppl that posts sets the master keywords of that thread, since most times the title are not enought self explain the real content of the post and this make difficult to browse or search since a post named "I NEED HELP" dosent really reflects the content.
3.- Organizatin must (in my point of view) to be done by programming areas. Just like the help file.
Then if some of us need some Network info can browse easily to this point.
As PB is a new compiler with its own syntaxis (similar to Basic but with many differences) its VERY important to have a easy browse/search place where the new user can get some help/info.
Just one more thing:
I think that a download section is a MUST in this kind of share-info forums (like yahoo groups has).
Please have in mind that the forums are a database of knowledge for us and any organization must be directed to easy search.
Best Regards
Ricardo

Leigh: One thing I think should be changed are the links for the
Forum Home Page and PureBasic's home page. At the moment, clicking
the great big PureBasic graphic at top-left goes to the forums, even
though it plainly says PureBasic. Also, the "Home" link at top-right
opens the PureBasic home page, but this link is under a heading that
plainly says "PureBasic Forums". I think: swap the URLs.
