Thread: Server help.

  1. #1

    Default Server help.

    Hello does this forums need any help with it's webhost or funding because I find it's down often and has been doing this for months.


    Just want us true blue fans to always have access to it.

    Also just an opinion but I think alot of the channels can be deleted /archived and condensed. The navigation is a bit confusing. I run some other forums else where and the best result for interaction between members is to have a really simple set up if that makes sense. New season, new era, we will be getting 100s of new members soon , so hopefully something alot more simplified.

    Just an idea

    Thanks for your comments. In the past we have had some server issues and we have taken steps to resolve them. I haven't been experiencing issues myself for quiet some time.

    I take your point about re-organising some of the forums. While the major forums are fine IMHO, we can definitely roll some of the sub-forums into the larger pool.

    After many seasons of truly uninspiringly suffering, we finally have a chance to have some fun. I think many people will be discovering and rediscovering us. We do offer a real alternative to the surface level stuff that goes on on facebook that disappears as quickly as it comes.

    Definitely time to scrub up.

    This is good feedback thanks mate. Care to drop me a DM with some examples of how we could improve? All and any feedback/ideas will be taken on board (and this extends to any forum members reading this as well).

    Edit: just realised I literally asked you to drop me a DM on a forum. A PM will do

    I feel this season will see an influx of returning and new users. I have been an advocate of promoting the Forum e.g. to fans on game day. If I could make a suggestion it would be to develop a simple but attractive introductory Home page with clear pathway/links to the various functions.

    I find if I have my VPN connected it can give some troubles with connection. I hit refresh a few times and it gets through or I turn it off.

    Ill just reply here so its transparent for everyone, First of all I would make the ' Gold Coast Titans(85 Viewing)' the landing page or the only forums u see on the front page.

    I would remove the social bar, and forum support.
    You can create a sticky thread about supporters being social before game or during for example.
    You can delete the 'Rugby League' Section and just create a sticky in the Gold Coast forums called ' NRL discussion' ( your choice in name )



    --------------
    In the Sub-forums in the ' Gold coast titans' section

    You can turn Mdrews' Gold coast Juniors' into just a Sticky thread on the front page instead of a whole sub section.

    Also Burleigh Bears, and Tweed Heads Seagull discussion can be turned into one Sticky thread instead of a whole subsection

    I would delete 'think thank'

    And i would 'delete supporter culture' section and we can make it a sticky aswell about 'game day culture and plans' or something

    'Titans games' can just get deleted because a new sticky is made each week for each game


    and 'Titans Player Discussion' can also just be a sticky or just a regular post in the main forum.


    Some of these also dont have to be stickied thread and can just be active threads in the main section of the Gold Coast Titan forum

    Hope all this makes sense, i would happy explain it over phone one day for 20 minutes if you ever feel the need

    I get this just with a normal ADSL connection. Some days the only way I can access the forum is via my phone with the WIFI off. Seems my provider doesn't like the Titans or something.

    I visit the site (usually a few times a day) from mostly a desktop. Sometimes my phone, depending on where I am. I haven't had any problems of late. The site is usually quick to open and easy to navigate.

    Just my 2 cents...

    Site is troublesome most days. I just mash the refresh button on the browser a few times and it loads.

    I am the same - no problems. Please don't stuff it up!

    Love the forum and all the hard work put into it.

    I only use my phone but I have issues entering the site if I am connected to wifi most times. Once it's off wifi I generally get through.

    Don't know if anyone thought of a mobile app, for us people on the go. Happy to contribute to make it happen

    Just wondering (please keep in mind that I am NO techy by any means) how does everyone log onto the site? I have a shortcut straight to the Gold Coast Titans forum and then navigate from there with no issues. Does everyone else do that??
