[rathole]I'll elaborate, in any case any onlookers don't understand my opinion: I think the outside Review section is effectively a completely different website with no relationship at all to the core forums. That's a design weakness. Because of that, I never even think of going there. When you said you put a review up, I was scouring this sub-forum wondering why I couldn't find it. Then I realized there is the other HTF "site" and checked there. I advocate some sort of unification. In my mind that means any review-site entry creates an equivalent thread for the product. And posting to the thread is integrated into the review section. Since the heart of this is database queries, I can imagine a simplistic solution to this that unifies the forum and review sections and encourages reviewers to participate in the conversations and forum-ers to contribute more reviews to be found by review-centric newbies. In practice, I'm sure I'm oversimplifying, but that's my thesis. [/rathole]Originally Posted by mattCR
Now, now.. I'm sure the ownership is glad to see you "slum" I'll try to start a thread on it soon.
