Idea for a new forum...

I was thinking like maybe a Computer Help forum. The General Help forum is mostly used for trouble with Nero and DJ burning help and stuff but why not make a computer help forum? I know there are a lot of people here that are good with computers and could help out people in case they mess up their computer and tech support is too stupid to help them out. What do you all think?

Well, this is a DCemu site.

BTW, not dissing you or anything. I can see how that one little sentence could be taken that way...

You can post these sorts of topics in the General Help Forum.

After all, its General Help, it doesn't need to be related to DCEmu.

True but I was thinking it could be kind of like an off topic help forum type thing.

The General Help is more of a DC burning help thing...

If you're having DC system problems, trouble burning an emu or if you need help with GypPlay etc., this is the place to get help.

I know the site is mostly DC Emu related stuff but it might be neat to have a forum specifically related to troubleshooting and such cause of all the programmers/other computer people who know just about everything about computers.

Anyway just passing along the idea. I'm thinking a Computer Help forum would be a good idea for the same reason there is a Dreamcast Discussion. I mean sure, Dreamcast Discussion could just go in the DCEmu Main forum but it is good it has it's own forum to keep the two subjects seperate.

When CD burning help became the General Help forum, the mods were hoping it would be a ctach all for all DC Emu related problems, not just Burning (ie what Codecs are needed for GypPlay, what bitrates play in DC MP3 players etc) but, yeah, it is pretty much burning help still...

If I were you having probs with my computer and you *really* think this site is better than somewhere like, say, http://www.zd.net for general Techy advice I 'd stick it in the Off Topic forum, where we'll happily reply to any old nonsense

WB, nyarlathotep (trying to spell it off the top of my head

, *edit* I did it right, that is so sad...). Looks like you have to add the transparentsies...

But back to the topic, if someone were to ask a Mac topic, then it would be moved to the Mac forum
