PAX Drivers Downloads Section

Lazer · Jun 11, 2011, 11:19 AM

I've already posted this in the PAX discussion thread, but didn't get any feedback from it, but I think it's a really good idea, and one which I hope people will agree on.

As of now, scrolling through the PAX Downloads Section could be a bit confusing to people trying to find a specific driver i.e - PCI XFI All-OS-Driver could easily be mistaken for a Titanium driver. At present the Downloads Section is 3 pages, but what happens when it becomes 10 or 20 pages? Thing will get messy, fast.

Here's my suggestion and solution;

Individual threads within the Downloads Section thread, it makes sense. I hope Robert, or whoever is in charge of the thread structure, thinks so too.

Cheers,
Laz.

Hi guys,

Glad you implemented my suggestion! However, I do have another suggestion regarding the previous one.

I think it would be a good idea to disable threads being allowed in the same section of the downloads (Sub-Forums) - It just defeats the whole object of it being a Downloads Section, for example;

As you can see, threads are being made, asking questions about the drivers, when they could easily be asked in the forum itself. Only Robert should have permission to post threads with updates, etc. Just keeps it clean imo.

Cheers,
Laz.
