	Forum categories for different ages of comics, art, shows, grading questions etc. Obviously a Buy/Sell forum with a feedback subforum. Also it would be nice to see who made the last post on a certain thread rather than the thread originator.

	After lurking for a few days, the main detraction is the lack of sub-forums - everything's a bit too linear and it hurts my OCD. Are these forums going to be as uptight about mentioning or displaying work from other grading companies as you-know-who? Maybe they protect their brand a little too much when it comes to mentioning CBCS but there you can slam and bad mouth PGX or any small guy anytime you want.

	First impression is that the forum feels unorganized. I much prefer discrete sub-forums and threads that are easy to follow.

But you must be in Forum Home view. If you have a list from opening a Tag, then hovering over the time stamp does nothing.

Bear in mind that there are MANY people who hold strong opinions on what company is best. There will always be those that will voice their opinion strongly. Don't let it detract from your love of collecting. If it gets too intense, alert myself or another mod and it will dealt with. I hope you enjoy the forum!!

	The forum is coming along nicely but I AM disappointed with some people bringing CGC board cliques, shenanigans etc. here, even this early on. I was really hoping this was going to be a uniquely different place from the CGC boards but that idea seems to have been wiped in short order.

I'm afraid I'm a bit out of the loop on this one as I've never been on the CGC board. If you'd care to elaborate, feel free to pm me and I'll see if there is something that we could do as a group or that I could do as an admin to make sure this forum is unique and enjoyable for all the members.

	Hey Jesse. There is really nothing to do as an admin regarding this. After all, I would not want to encourage moderating behavior that IS within the rules of the TOS. But I felt mentioning it might hit a chord with some involved or with others who are regulars over at the CGC boards and recognize it. Sometimes, regrettably, speaking out like this can be hard for some for fear of reprisals, unpopularity etc. which I do understand. But having hit my 65th birthday a few months ago the concept of peer pressure is rather remote!

	Not sure if this was posted yet, but another issue with using Tags rather than having sub-forums, is that a lot of posts get duplicated. If someone used say 5 tags on a post, I will see that same post 5 times when I click on the various tags on the left side of the screen.

But having hit my 65th birthday a few months ago the concept of peer pressure is rather remote! Sometimes, you just have to overlook certain... things. I know sometimes I think I'm funny when I'm not and people think, "What an idiot." It's a two way street. I try to be... nicer, as to not come across as the "You kids get off my lawn!" type of guy, but it can be difficult. Given the way this particular forum is setup, it's harder to get away from the kids splashing in the shallow end of the pool as it isn't as segregated as the cgc boards are with the different sub-forums. However, I think once all the red has been licked of the candy, you'll start to see things begin to mellow out.
