Special forum for KingSize??

Post by toysnz »

Given the wonderful information being provided by Charliep I wonder if now is the time to devote a special King Size forum to the wealth of information provided by him recently?

What say you all?

A jeezus!... point oot the obvious mon! Ah mean gie him his oan forum fur a' that info an his photies..... :lol:

(translation for non-Scots) Oh Jesus! point out the obvious man! I mean give him his own forum for all that info and his photos...

I just thought it would be good to have all the Kingsize information and photos separate from the Majors and Accessories stuff since there is so much useful information there for the rest of us... otherwise it will just disappear further down the list of threads and become more difficult to find in a few months.

I've never really been entirely convinced that KingSise, Major Packs and Accessory Packs belong together, but I assume it is because when the Major Pack range was killed off, a number of current and planned models transferred to the KingSize range. Also the Major Packs and Accessory packs form an obvious (period) grouping plus, until recently, it's not been a particularly active area.
Given the increasing emphasis on later KingSize (which are obviously completely divorced from the historic KingSize/Major Pack link), I think splitting the two areas makes good sense.
Thinking laterally, given that Major Pack and Accessory Pack posts are few and far between (which is a shame), should they have their own area, or should they be moved to a sub-Forum of the RW area? (The reason I ask is because, as with the Eastern European SF, I'm a bit nervous about having too many separate areas within the Forum.)
