Denis Hard Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Supposing someone stumbles into a good language learning resource, some good tutorials, videos about a language, an interesting language site, etc., s/he may start a thread about it but in time it will get buried under all the new posts. So I was thinking maybe, a sub-forum where such stuff [which can be useful from time to time] wouldn't be so bad an idea? That way access to learning materials would be relatively easy.

Daimashin Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Sounds like a good idea. I've seen a couple of topics that post on learning language materials but they get mixed in with others making it hard to keep track sometimes. Having a section that compiles them all is great. I support this and hope the mods will take this into consideration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linguaholic Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Dear Denis HardYou are completely right. It is indeed a big problem that useful information gets lost under all that posts that have been done already (almost 20'000 posts now). At least we got a neat search function, which enables us to find precious information again about a certain topic/keyword.Moreover, me, as an administrator, I have the possibility to make posts sticky; ...sticky posts remain at the top at all times. I used this function several times in all kind of different subforums on linguaholic.com, especially for threads with lots of links (online resources for language learning for different languages).However, I do agree that a special sub-forum for the most precious information/links would be a great addition to www.linguaholic.com and I will definitely try to integrate something like this very soon.Please have a look at those posts here:http://linguaholic.com/chinese-links/study-chinese-links/http://linguaholic.com/study-russian/useful-links-for-russian-language-learners/http://linguaholic.com/japanese-links/study-japanese-links/http://linguaholic.com/german-language-general-discussion-thread/study-links-german-updated-**-january-2014-**/It would be great to have this kind of information in a separate forum. Don't you agree? There are, of course, also different kind of threads/information, where it would make sense to have them in a separate subforum (for quick/easier access).

Denis Hard Posted February 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 It would even be much better if it was the mods and the admin only who posted the links [to the resources] on the sub-forum. That would prevent users from abusing the system. Of course, we members would post such info on any relevant forum but the mod. or the forum admin [you] would move that post to the sub-forum if it really is helpful. Just a thought. . .
