new forums idea

[chambersc]

i'm looking to get a car soon and am going through pages of OT forums to find the fricking 3 "car" threads. i think a general forum for cars would be great (to discuss buying or repairing etc)

There are plenty of other car forums out there. No need for a new forum category for cars.

Your search skills suck.

yea this is a technology site.

cars are technology

This is a computer tech site, we're lucky (if you'd call it lucky...) enough to even have off topic.

Either you have reading comprehension problems, or you don't visit anandtech.com much. Either way, can you point me to the last time Anand did a car review?

It's the former.

There are lots of subjects for which the mods could create a new forum, but there needs to be enough traffic to justify it. As you pointed out, there were only 3 "car" threads through "pages" of OT.

Your best bet is to search for some term that is close to what you're looking for (e.g. car, suv, mileage, repair, or the make of the car).

Or, as slick230 said, there are other non-AT forums which are dedicated to cars. You might want to ask in off-topic for suggested forum sites for car discussion.

What we really need is a forum for ideas for new forums
