A computer help forum would really be good...

I have lots of PC issues I'd like to share here... I know I could do it in the General forum but it really isn't useful to post all my issues there as it's more of a general forum, meaning I get less (good) responses to my computer issues.

Just a suggestion, could be nice to have a computer/pc forum within the general talk section.

Why don't you post all of your issues in 1 thread or better yet, post the thread on a more appropriate forum.

Yeah that is not a bad idea.

 

I think it might do good having a message base here for "Compurter Issues"

 

I think this is a webmaster forum... there are loads of Computer Related forums out there,

 

True, but don't webmasters have a need to talk about their computer problems? (as we are on here 24/7 ... at least some of us )

 

How about a seperate section for females as well? Oh nevermind, that one was suggested already

 

Maybe a technical difficulties subforum in the general chat area.

 

Well if we have seperate section that is good but if you have some problems than you can solved it by posting it in General section.

 

Well, there are a lot of separate ideas, but generally computers is everything all webmasters use, and it brings out a lot of issues that also can be webmaster-related.

 

I like this idea better than the sports forum idea, why didn't you create a poll for this thread?

 

Webmaster related forums ->> No Computers, Only servers and websites

 

You have to look at the other side though, servers are computers and do deserve to be treated like a computer.

Sorry I didn't create a poll...

 

Yes it would be nice to have something like this:

Tech Talk
Microsoft Windows
Linux and Unix
Mac
Hardware
Networking

 

Its a webmaster forum. Separate section is not necessary. I think that you can post it in General Section.

 

Irrespective of whether the topics are placed in a tech section or general section ,you still are bound to get fewer replies than what you may get on say expert-exchange or other tech sites as this is primarily a webmaster forum.

Now that this thread has caught a few people's attention you may put forward your issues in the general section and we would try to help you out .

Good point,you could..... After all "General discussions" means just that

 

General is fine but I think a computer help section would also be good - I do pc support and might drop in to answer questions when I'm bored - and as someone said, webmasters do use computers so it might be a good helpful section that would keep people at dp (not like there's an issue with that) rather than heading off somewhere else to post their questions.

Yes! I support a "computer/technology" section, or better yet... two sections, one on computer, another on like electronics (mp3/phones) etc

 

no point in reinventing the wheel when the information is out there in another forum.... more related to computer probs
