I tink the Forum section can make it longer than the Ads section since people are contributing more at the latter. maybe can make it double than the current size for the convenience of fellow users.

Things looks fine as it is to me.

I think what rockito is saying is that because of the high volume of forum posts within a day, the earlier post get filtered off the front page. Sometimes, posts made a few hours ago gets filtered off. So an active thread can easily become inactive - unless one goes to the forum link and search through each topic to look for the latest entry. That seems time consuming and a little troublesome.

However, increasing the forum section on the front page may not be a solution either - makes the index page too long and tiring to go through, especially for first time visitors.

My suggestion: why not have a small link to view all the active threads posted within one day. We can keep the front page short. One click and the list of all the threads entered during the day appears in another window. Easier for forumers to search for active threads to post.

Personally I find it a bit troublesome to go from forum to forum looking for interesting things - form Koptiam to How to Guitar, to People- Guitar, to Gear- guitar.... I'd prefer it if all guitar stuff was in one forum.

agree to that. if its possible, a page on all the threads within a day or 2 would be very nice indeed

Like that, you'll need to re-align the theme of the webby. I think the webby is to the good of music in general, not suppose to be slanted to guitarist in general. But there is more guitarist due to the nature of population in general.

Its grossly in-proportional in accordance to the bassist, keyboardist, percussionist, vocalist.....etc. in general.

We must be fair.
