TechXP Forum?
Posted by: wizardcreations on: November 15, 2007
Since i started TechXP I’ve wanted the inclusion of a forum. This is because it will help people ask questions and get advice about their problems (with computers). I need to know if its the right time so your comments will be very appreciated here. firstly though im going to list a few Pros and Cons of having a forum.
Pros
People can communicate in discussions and help other users
All sorts of media can be posted
anyone can join
Its always there 24/7
Cons
I would be extra work for me
If it gets too busy i would need moderators
Not too many of either there but i tried to think of Pros and Cons that are realistic to this specific forum.
The Pros outweigh the Cons but a forum is nothing without users (i guess lack of users could be another Con) so i need people support!
well this was a very short post compared to my other ones but i hope the comments will make up for that! The question is forum or not?
My post on how to install memory is coming soon as promised in previous post (http://wizardcreations.wordpress.com/2007/11/11/speed-up-your-computer-part-44-readyboost-and-extra-ram/).
