Poll about separating threads.

JMyers · 01-02-2011, 10:47 AM

There has been quite a bit of talk about separating the nook color and classic threads. I have set up this poll as a place you can voice your opinion for or against.

Separate nook color from classic threads.

Keep them together.

It won't make any difference. Take one look at the B&N forums and you still see a lot of threads popping up in "the wrong place". My advice: If you see a NOOKcolor thread appear, open its first page and then set the flag under Thread Tools to "Ignore this Thread".

I think there should be a subthread for "rooting"

I agree. Makes it easy to assist folks.

I voted to separate. I visit other sub-forums all the time. This would be no different. If a thread pertains to both sub-forums, you can post in both.

Me too. I really think it would be helpful for all concerned. I get excited occasionally when I see a thread topic that describes something I would like to do with my non-rooted NC and then am disappointed to find out it only applies to rooted NCs.

Easy call....PLEASE separate them.

I'm new to the forum and a new NookColor owner.....just about the entire first page of threads is about the NookColor....and most of them are about things I'm interested in.....So I'm happy the way it is

But.....if I were a new Nook Classic owner, and new to the forum......I probably wouldn't even stay here long, since I wouldn't be getting pertinent information, and would assume this is a NookColor forum.....

So I'll have to vote to separate....

I think he exactly described the situation.

PS If there were two separate Forums, then there would be less confusion and misplaced threads...

I am another vote to separate the Nook Color and Nook Classic threads.

There are a few things that will apply to both but I own the Nook Color and usually read only the threads applying to the Nook Color.

kevinrs · 01-02-2011, 03:40 PM

as I'm seeing 18 posts on the first page related to color specifically, either we need separate pages, or add a classic tag, and force people to chose color, classic or both(?), for when a question would apply to either device, like a question about a book, or BN.com for example. Then allow people to filter out either color or classic.
If that level on tagging posts is too difficult, then a color and a classic subforum, though it means more pages for people to view.

JMyers · 01-02-2011, 09:07 PM

Well so far I see that a huge majority want to see a separation of the classic and color nook threads.

I'd like to forth or fifth this...but you'd have to sell it as a "root/mods" sub forum to handle support for the rooting as well as running apps and so forth.

This.

Then again, most of the Color threads end up talking about rooting.

ColdSun · 01-03-2011, 01:22 AM

I previously thought we should leave them together, but with the popularity of the Color, it seems that some Classic threads are getting buried. So I voted to separate.
