Quoting and Sub-Forum Title

[ginga]

A few more things have came to me as of late. One being, this section. I believe the section title should be different, as it says 'Questions and Suggestions', it should be just Suggestions as they are usually helpful and we should want to encourage users to make them here. The General Discussion is getting questions all of the time. That in my opinion is where they are to be made.

Two involves quoting. I feel this feature now would be better off taken out with the new '@' system. The quotes are kind of big and unnecessary now. I feel as though conversations within threads will be a lot smoother this way. Thanks

Quoting and Mentioning should both stay because they have different purposes.

But you will be seeing what I put in my closing statement. The thread conversations will definitely be better and easier to join into, with the at system. I already have witnessed members using the @ as a replacement to the quoting system, not entirely for the purpose of mentioning.

Questions & Suggestions is for questions and suggestions regarding the site. General questions like "What did you get for Christmas?" belong in General Discussion.

And as Leader said. Besides, some people can't be tagged in the new system yet, like myself.

The changes are being put in and will be when needed. You are given a notification now after being tagged.

He has a special character, so he can't be tagged.

@Leader , oh.

Does anyone else agree with these? I think questions about the site should be in the general discussion then, for the reason I have.

1. Questions regarding the forum do not belong in the General Discussion subforum. Why should they? I do not believe there would be an increase of site suggestions if this were to be done.

2. What if you are trying to respond to a user's post on a different page? It's more of a hassle than it's worth. The quoting feature is convenient. And, well...this isn't Twitter.

I believe one should be put in then, truthfully. Just 'Suggestions' should in fact motivate many to think of new ideas.
