Forum Rejigging

Just to let everyone know there have been a few changes made as part of the on-going process:
1. Dedicated Rolex Section with new dedicated sub-forums.
2. Dedicated Other (Non-Rolex) Section with new sub-forums.
3. Dedicated Omega and Panerai sub-forums as these are the watches most closely akin to the most popular Rolex sports watches and seem from past experience to have generated the most non-Rolex member interest.
4. A Rolex Reference Section that is to be constructed with the help of members donating their information and photographs.
So lets see how it all goes, I'm hoping the new revised layout will see an improvement for everyone.

The forum set-up as it was:

Watch Only Topics
-General Rolex Forum
-Watches (Non-Rolex) Forum
-Watch Reviews
-The Watch Gallery
-Rolex Reference Library
-Rolex & Other Watch Links & Resources
General Topics
-Open Discussion Forum
-Jokes & Cartoons
-Picture & Video Gallery
Classifieds
-For Sale / Wanting To Buy
-WatchOut!!!
Website Specific Topics
-News & Announcements
-New Members
-Suggestions / Complaints / Support

But this is how the new relevant and superior layout is presented:

Rolex Only Topics
-Rolex General Discussion Forum
-Rolex Reference Library
-Rolex Watch Reviews
-Rolex Watch Gallery
-Rolex & Other Watch Links & Resources
General Topics
-Open Discussion Forum
-Jokes & Cartoons
-Picture & Video Gallery
Other (Non-Rolex) Watch Topics
-Omega Discussion Forum
-Panerai Discussion Forum
-Other Watches (Non-Rolex) Forum
-Watch Reviews (Non-Rolex)
-Watch Gallery (Non-Rolex)
Classifieds
-For Sale / Wanting To Buy
-WatchOut!!!
Website Specific Topics
-News & Announcements
-New Members
-Suggestions / Complaints / Support

O.K. so we have everyones approval for all systems go!!!!!!!

Thanks guys a lot of the credit for the re-jig must go to the moderators for inspiring the changes.

I hope they work out, but if not a few clicks only to get it back to where it was.

Just when you thought there was nothing more, bam there you go, I am just trying to make the forum better for everyone without losing the sense of community that presently exists.

I was going to ask why subs get their own forum, then I realize you meant sub-forums as in sub-level. :-)

Well Breitling, JLC and a number of others were considered, but there has to be a limit and there has to be a level of member interest to support that individual brand forum. I'm not saying a Breitling forum wouldn't work or would never work, its just that at this time it was not up for inclusion.
