    Not to worry, we shall inform narnia where the poll is located, when it is created.
    As for limsy, we can be sure that he can find the poll himself. He is here everyday. :):):)

    it didnt do much different:(
    one might dig into page ten to get to read his/her player thread
    when i found saina nehwal thread
    that thread is in page 4(after kwun did the division)
    mean that,saina thread might be in page 15 before the change
    this is not good for india badminton,if we asume there is 10 or 20 india people know this forum everyday,and they come in and have a look
    they read until page 10 also no their player info,u think they we come back again?
    ;)

    I suggested it for the major countries.

    The bunch of minor threads like Saina can stay separately as they are now.

    i can say either way is good. either way, there are some complications too.
    for me to get latest post, click Today's Posts or New Posts. if one wants to follow a thread or multiple thread, subscribe it. these will lessen the hassle searching high and low.

    Easier for us to do 'selective' reading

    .
    limsy is thinking of having the "Professional Players" forum to be set up like the "Tournaments" forum.

    In a way it's good, although kwun needs to spent time to categorise the threads. ;););)

    Let's say today I would like to read about players from KOR, I would just click on the "Korea Professional Players" sub-forum. And tomorrow, would like to read about players from INA, I would just click on the "Indonesia Professional Players" sub-forum.

    Since it has been changed, it makes it much easier for us to do 'selective' reading.

    They can bookmark the threads they want or like. One click, immediately can see Saina's thread, no need search till page 10.

    For posting purposes, it depends on your browsing or posting habit.
    I find too many division more headache : it is in general prof players or countries, click one section, then another sub section bf can post the info/news.
    Like CTF/ZJW getting married thread...it's in the general Prof players side not Msia players side (well.. ZJW not Msian), problem also search here, search there.:D

    They can use search function, I also did so when I new to BC mah.
    Like I said, it depends on a person's browsing habit,either format also pose problem, I see from poster point of view.

    The other thread which is 'for the idea'

    .
    This thread is definitely 'Against the idea'. :eek::eek::eek:

    Perhaps, we should combine this thread with the other thread which is more 'For the idea':

    I knew :p:p:p, got the word "Search" quite big on top bar,:D:D .
    Yeah,last time a lot of people read only, dont register. But now more people register cos they must do so to download the baddy vids.
    And BC is linked to Badzine & can google.

    Anyway, whatever format, I leave it up to kwun. At most, I post less only lor ;)

    okay..

    ..i think it's time to bring out the ever popular poll to decide whether we gonna stick with the current layout in the Professional Players section or go back to the stone age..err, i mean the pre-divisions period..
    *I just hope there won't be only 15 or 20 people voting...:eek:
    ..the word "Search" is quite big on top bar?? really??..:confused:
