set collecting forum

I noticed that the set building forum is pretty dead. But I was wondering was there ever any thought of havin a seperate set forum for each sport like BB, FB & BKB at least? I know way back when, on the older TR I was a mod for the bkb set forum & it went rather well.

If this would be an alternative id me more then happy to cover the bkb section, as i was sitting here tonight and had ideas for contests and stuff as to maybe liven it up some if this idea became a reality.

Im a big set builder & I know there used to be alot of others there were to. If there still around im not sure, but i know theres newer ppl on the forums that do it also.

But theres my 2 cents worth let me know what ya all think.

Thanks Mike.

You bring up some good points.
Seems to me everyone could just post their wants in the main trade forums for each sport and we wouldn't have as much clutter, and it would increase traffic?
Maybe run some contest's to encourage set builders to post?

well somewhat like that. I figured since the set forum we have right now is for everything put together. Which if it does start to liven up then everything will be jumbled together.

But was thinking if there was a seperate one for BB,FB & BKB since those threads get enough action. That collectors that are looking for set needs could post there want list in that section. Also a sticky could be made in that section with a list of all collectors with the sets there collecting.

But yes i do have some ideas for some contests but mainly pertains to bkb since thats about all i do. Thats why i brought up the idea of maybe maken seperate sections.

More thoughts on this would be a good thing.

We have tried several times to get something going in that regard and quite honestly, they have failed miserably several times over. I appreciate the input but I really dont think there is much need for it. I agree with Nail saying there is more than enough room in the main forums. If the main forums got to the point where you could really lose track of a post, I could understand it a little more. Sadly, none are at that point right now.
