Wasn't me, I'm guessing trust, but that's just a guess. I like the idea though.

I updated all the thread titles. I thought this was the reason we were putting them to sort title alphabetically. I see no point in sorting by thread date, it doesn't mean anything in that section, the threads are always relevant even if they're 5 years old.

I don't mean to be a pain, but now it appears that any member can create threads in the DIY subforums, which is not good. Is this a result of opening the main DIY section to posting?

Honestly though, I don't think people will be making DIY request threads anyway. I seriously doubt that having a section for DIY requests will be useful.

I agree, actually. It seems to me that the need for DIY threads typically stems from an answered Tech Question.

small request... can someone make it so the DIY section looks like the product review section on the main page? This is what i'm talking about:



notice how the product review section does not say what thread was last posted and the section views, etc. and it stretches across all the way. I just noticed this and I think it would stick out more if it were like that and maybe noobs would be more likely see the DIY section before asking questions that are already thoroughly answered in the DIY section. Also, it's a little more visually pleasing.

I think its fine as is. This way, we can see that new DIYs DO get added.

I thought the DIY section was why I got Mod Powah and the hobo ban cane. Do I get a say?
