We're playing with the forums!

We've been thinking long and hard about how the forums could be better organized. Hopefully you like our ideas.

If you have any suggestions, questions, or comments, let us know!

looking good. We should probably set up a rules thread so everyone knows what to do to be in your good graces

yes you do need to make a rules and FAQ. They would make this great forum even better and help keep it clean.

Coolmaster · **forums** - July 6th, 2008, 02:09 PM #6

Personally, I think the forums are great and well organized and people usually are pretty respectful. I don't know about the need for a rules thread, but a FAQ thread could be helpful. I love this site and the forums are always helpful when you have a problem.

Michael Johnston · July 6th, 2008, 03:48 PM #7

What sort of things should we put in the FAQ?

General ideas and specific questions are equally welcome.

xxx · July 7th, 2008, 10:37 PM #8

FAQ could include:

-Where can I get instructions on how to unlock/jailbreak my iphone
-What are the best programs for modding (MAC/PC)
-How can I check what version firmware i'm running (for extreme noobs)
-What is that strange title under my name and when does it change

-Help my phone is stuck in recovery mode, what are my options?

and

-When can we expect an adobe flash plugin for the iPhone (my favorite)

Michael Johnston · July 8th, 2008, 02:28 PM #9

Good idea. We've got something cooking...

Snoop1990 · July 8th, 2008, 05:46 PM #10

maybe you need some more Moderators to keep the users even more active !

Edward Kirk · July 8th, 2008, 06:08 PM #11

Are you volunteering, Snoop1990?

But at the moment I do not have a iphone so ... .

MICHAELSD · July 8th, 2008, 07:04 PM #13

If you guys need help, I could definitely volunteer here! If you guys wanted, I could probably write a few articles, I see a lot of the iPhone news before you guys post it here

. You'd probably be surprised at my writing. BTW, if I became a mod would I still be able to get a free iPhone 3G if I win

?

xxx · July 8th, 2008, 10:30 PM #14

Ya, if you guys need help, I am more than willing. I go to a nerd college (RIT) with Gehotz so this has to count for something!!

Michael Johnston · July 9th, 2008, 01:38 AM #15

We usually only hire zombies, but we may make an exception for you guys...

MICHAELSD · July 9th, 2008, 01:52 AM #16

Is that a yes or a no

? And which mods are zombies

?

Michael Johnston · July 9th, 2008, 05:33 AM #17

Not sure, but I do know that you will have your brainz eaten by a zombie in order to become a mod. If you're fine with that then it may happen

Snoop1990 · July 9th, 2008, 05:58 PM #18

I am already a zombie

I did some moderation for different free web hosts for example And at the moment I work for this host.

So yeah I am already half dead !

Agreed FAQ is a good idea and also how about a "Tip of the day" section or "Tip of the Week" etc.

hauntedtrail13 · December 17th, 2008, 11:11 PM #20

personally i think things are great the way they are. Things are in good condition i think. But the FAQ is a neat idea. Tip of the day is a good one too.
