Once again I'm back to propose a few changes that I have been thinking about for this forum.
1. Delete the less visited sections.
Urban Toronto Highlights: I don't really see the reason for the existence of this section. I've never visited it, except when I was writing this. I don't know if many of the other forumers have visited it recently either.
If they're really UT highlights and you want to keep them, can't we keep them somewhere else, like on another webpage or something? If they're stuff that's worthy of future discussion, we can save them up on a computer and then bring it up once in a while in the appropriate section.
Another section that should be considered for deletion is the Neighbourhood Discussion. I don't think it's as popular as Toronto Issues, and I think many forumers would agree. Many topics that would fit under Neighbourhood Discussion might be posted in Toronto Issues because it also fits there and would also get more visits and more replies.
2. New non-Toronto Urban Issues sections.
I think that many of us would like to share views, thoughts, articles, etc. on urban issues that are not about Toronto. The Buildings section is okay for posting stuff on other cities' buildings, but stuff about other cities' urban issues usually end up in Toronto Issues, where they'll probably get moved, or to General Discussions, which I think would be more appropriate for non-urban issues, casual chit-chat.
Since this forum has a Canadian focus as well as a Toronto focus, we can have a section dealing with Canadian urban issues. We can also have a "World Urban Issues" section for urban issues that don't relate to Canada or Toronto. I like having two sections, but one "Non-Toronto Urban Issues" section would probably work just as well.
3. A section where forumers can offer their own proposals, fantasies, etc.
I came up with this while writing this post. I think it would be kind of neat if we can use a forum section to get forumers to be creative. Forumers can post sketches or plans of buildings that they have designed for fun, or maps of their fantasy TTC subway system, or their ideas for the perfect Toronto government, etc. This should be a fun section, don't you think?
4. An Urban Toronto bulletin board/calendar
I think we forumers can really use a bulletin board to post messages to other forumers, or to make announcements. It should also be a really good place to post upcoming events such as forum meets and events that some of us are going to. It should really help us develop new friendships outside of the forum.
That's all the suggestions I want to make. I hope you like them!
