Toys and Merch Section

Post by Innagadadavida » Fri Feb 06, 2009 6:38 am

There sure are a lot of threads about toys and other merchandise. I'm not particularly interested in Dragon Ball toys, and I'm probably not the only one. Do you think it would be beneficial to create a section for Toys and Merchandise? We have Video Games and Music, I think a toys section would fit nicely. And it's a niche just like those topics. Perhaps not as big, but it certainly would make the General Discussion less crowded.

I was actually planning on bringing up the same thing after all of the toys threads the other day, so I agree.

Sometimes I'd like to ask for help, but don't want to crowd General Discussion.

This is probably a good idea. There are a lot of threads about general merchandise, not just toys.

Help with toys? There have been a lot of 'what is this' and stuff. I think it's all suited for it's own section. But it's really up to VegettoEX.

I'll give it some thought. Right now, I don't see it being wholly necessary. If that changes over time (especially if the new "refresh" does anything to even further complicate and expand-upon the amount of new merch available), then it may be time.

For now, I think it's working OK. I'm always very hesitant to add new sections to the forum, due to a variety of reasons which would take a really long time to outline. Thanks for the suggestions, though.

Instead of adding a new forum, you could rename the video game forum, as VGs are merchandise.

Yeah, but Oldphan seems to report most new stuff here aswell, anyway.

I think she is the primary reason for this thread existing. :lol:
