Bozothenutter Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Hi mods, Would it be a good idea to have a 'General Modelling' chat area? Some of us have multidisciplinary interest, with general modelling questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg B Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Probably not, we would end up moving topics in there back into the correct forum areas where they should have been posted in the first instance. no point in having another area duplicating the function of other forum areas.

Bozothenutter Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 Was just thinking of something like "what attracts you to a subject?" No real place to ask.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul821 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 I appreciate @Greg B 's point about moving subjects and overall moderation issues but I have had two subjects this weekend to illustrate the possible need for a Modelling Chat Area. One regarding models, of any type, that did not match the real thing - post in What Ifs. News about a new model shop opening locally - not posted as I cannot see a home for it.

It does seem silly and counter intuitive that we're advised to post miscellaneous modelling threads in a section labelled 'none modelling related chat'. If there's no appetite for creating a stand alone 'general modelling chat' section, maybe just amend the description of the existing chat section to eliminate the confusion?

Bullbasket Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 The thing is, it may be labelled "Non Modelling Related Chat", but there are at least four topics on the first page which are model related, and one is a long running topic.So far it seems to have worked out fine, so "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

Greg B Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Model shops aren't modelling. Modelling topics are about the building to completion. Its shopping, or to be more precise for the majority of this membership; Stashing. We could have a lot more topic areas, but its more places to look after, more places to move from and to and more places for members to get their heads around.
