Suggestion: How about a video forum?

gbrandwood · 02-12-2007, 11:49 AM

Hi mods

Could we not have a video forum? We get videos posted left right and centre. It might be handy to keep them all together. I've got loads of old clips I could dig out and stick on YouTube or Google or something.

If we did have one, would it function like the News forum (is supposed to) or could we allow discussions to follow?

Remember, the old site had a few old videos on the home page somewhere. Why not bring them back in a forum? It'd be much better than yet another sticky thread just holding video links.

Just an idea.

I agree...as time goes by there are only going to be more and more videos featuring segways.

I'd even suggest that we make a sticky at the top of the thread with the most popular/funniest segway videos. It's also a good place to put a general guidelines about how to include disclaimers if you're going to post a link to a segway video with potentially unsafe activities in them.

Well, we seem to be in the mood for voting! This gets my vote, I think its a great idea.

Sure, no problem... A video and podcast forum is now available.

I knew I should have asked for a little more.

Ahem, can I have a videos forum and an x2 please? For the benefit of the peeps?

Seriously, thanks for doing that. I'm sure it will be a useful place.
