Additional topic areas

[tkaz]

Has anyone thought of putting some additional forum sections on here, maybe one for signs and one for candy/cigarette vendors?  I think both of those get bottled up under general or other coin-ops, but I think there's enough threads out that might warrant some new stuff.

What do you think, any other suggestions?

GREAT IDEA

[Jim]

I'm always open for improvements!
Consideration is needed for not creating too many Discussion Areas making things "cluttered" or "confusing"...
Let me know what the consensus is and the New Forums can be added...

I agree Jim, too many can make the site hard to navigate.  I was just thinking that a lot of the knowledge on some areas gets lost, and there usually is very good info in the threads.

Sorry Against it, The Stoners and other coin-ops are fine under other coin-Ops and signs under general  don't change a thing.

[Kilroy]

I have to agree with Pat on this one.  Leave things be.

Those ideas/ items could be placed under “Other Coin-Ops” or “General Chit Chat”...

There are a couple sites (i.e. oldgas.com) where certain members set up weekly or monthly threads like “BOTW” (Buys of The Week)
so members can post share/showcase the new additions to their collection they found that week or month... I for one enjoy seeing
what others find.. items that relate to the soda world like signs, coolers, bottles or maybe soda fountain items.

Another thread that is cool is “FATW” (Found Along The Way) here members post pictures of maybe restaurants with
coolers/machines begin used as a display or maybe even a old machine still in use found in the wild.

This is something simple that can be done here and would promote more pictures of cool stuff!

I like the FATW threads too. Some of my favorites.

I like FATW thread. I vote for it

It's fine the way it is.  I still believe it's still a Soda Machine site ....although I would say 85% of my post are not soda related , but "Other coin ops" and "General chit chat" is good enough for me.
