I'm gonna put it back, so I'd like to collect your suggestions as to which threads should be included. Lemme know whatcha think.

Joe P Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 Dave, Do a search for posts with the abbreviation "vs." in the subject. I think that would be a good place to start! Regards, Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Grace Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I was happy with the old one. The only addition I might suggest would be the Post Your Cool Links Here thread. Or was that already included? Best, Geoff My Blue Someday appears on Apple Music | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only addition I might suggest would be the Post Your Cool Links Here thread. Or was that already included?Indeed it was. I do remember the Let\'s hear it! and the Garage Sale threads were also there...and I also remember we had a thread where people could sell their CDs, but I don't remember what that one was called... I'm sure there must be others that are worthy of including... dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marino Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 The "Introductions" thread was there as well, probably... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mate stubb Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 And the ever popular "I need a keyboard that does great piano". It would be great to intercept anyone with less than 10 posts who mentions "piano" and plop them down in piano thread purgatory. Moe --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got any one thread that you think is the ideal one to link to for that? dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhunter Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 What about a vocoder thread? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidLifeCrisis Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 There is nothing in there that would lead a new user down the right path. Maybe post the lastest thread with the war on how to treat newies? I would recommend you clearly outline some simple steps for new posters to follow in the body of that thread.

Okay... Any specific recommendations for how to word that? I mean, other than the ones that Steve Fortner wrote in Searching For What You Need post in the Forum Policies sticky? Unlike some of the others who post here, I actually don't have a problem with someone asking a "newbie" question when they first come to the forum...so I'm not sure quite how to word something like that. dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidLifeCrisis Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 There were some good suggestions in a recent thread. I think it was "Where do I start". Some people provided some appropriate wordings to help people get started. Not that the searching for what you need is not good, I just thought the main thread should have some sort of intro for new posters to welcome them and suggest they read the searching post. I don't think anyone here has a problem helping new people out. It surely is reqrding to help solve people's problem. The only problem I saw that people have is when the first post is "what keyboard should I buy" and provide no other information.
