changing vehicle discussion to vehicles with vehicle discussion(for everything)mech problem and builds/mods in it

It probably would make future searches more productive , I like it.
Everything you've done so far has been fine.
You're better at this than you give yourself credit for.............
YARC has been an everything thread from the start.
By design.

We haven't actually seen a lot of people here talking about their hobbies. So I'm not sure what the point would be? Certainly, if we started having a ton of posts on that subject, it would be worth considering.
Maybe it's just me, but if I look at a forum, and see a whole bunch of topics - say, a hobby section with separate sub sections for photography, metal detecting, amateur radio, etc, etc. etc. - and most of those sub sections have 0 posts in them, or at best 1 or 2, I tend to think "Man, nobody hangs out here. No point in wasting my time here."

I LIKE IT I HAVE MORE THAN ONE HOBBY OR CRAFT I'M INTERESTED IN. SOME I'M NOT WORKING IN RIGHT NOW HOWEVER I INTEND TO GET BACK TO THEM. I LIKE TO LEARN HOW TO DO NEW THINGS TOO. IT ALWAYS SEEMS EASIER FOR ME TO LEARN FROM OTHERS WITH A PARTICULAR SKILL THAN FROM THE WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS.

feature it,it's the main topic here so give it a section,by doing so people could post their own thread so instead of one long thread it might become a series of theads
i gotts a surprise for yarc a commin
RE: Thinking of some changes - rvpopeye - 12-11-2017
Having all posts on one thread or sub-yarcs ?
If we leave it alone people will have to read the entire thing to find something ?
OR
Fence it off nice and tidy?
I "Ain't Right" so of course I choose leave it.

Honestly if you want to grow the forum aspect of the Vandwellers then a subsection of other topic would do nicely. You'd have to ask members opinions. It would be nice to have a one place fits all. Like a type of social forum where members can congregate to for topics as well as van life. maybe just get online in if you have time and just checkout what other forums have just to get an idea.
who knows, all i know is that there is much potential for this group to grow, you just have to find the right direction to take it to.
RE: Thinking of some changes - Optimistic Paranoid - 12-11-2017
You could break YARC out into it's own forum and then lock it down so no other threads could be posted in that forum. It would then be a single post forum.
Anna, I thought the CHIT CHAT and OFF TOPIC forum served that purpose. Maybe we could rename it? I'm on one outdoor type forum where the general discussion and off topic area is called THE BONFIRE. As in, sitting around the fire and shootin the chit.
Maybe, in honor of ANNA, we could rename it THE PUB?
