hear hear.

i support sub-forum for stocks.

but some ppl might take advantage and spam even more to increase post count.

eg: useless spam/copy+paste updates which can be pulled from newspapers. eg: >20K post count.

please open a sub-forum for US stock market too ^^

I was wondering if we could create sub forums for each individual stock exchange, KLSE, DOW, etc. Would be easier for discussion. No wait, "World Stock Exchanges" would be a better sub forum. Then we can open threads accordingly.

Posting in a sub-forum does not increase post count as far as I know.

Added on December 12, 2007, 3:38 pmA stock-market sub-forum means ANY discussion on stock market is allowed. Does not need to be classified. If you feel like discussing US markets with interested posters, just start a thread in the sub-forum titled "US MARKET CHAT" or even individual stocks "US: Google Stock Discussion". While people interested in trading CPO can open a "CPO FUTURES: ALL TRADERS COME IN!!" thread.

So I don't think it is necessary to open different sub-forums for different markets. As they are all under the same tree.

Stock Market Disscussion/Chat <-- kopitiam, rumor, speculation talk,chit chat, your portfolio, what you buy/sell, etc etc goes here

Stock Market Technical/Fundamental analysis <-- news from media, stock chart, price update, quote, research material etc etc goes here..

so actually we only need 2 subforum, just my opinion

How much discussion is there about the stockmarket to warrant 2 new subforums? The Finance subforum itself isn't all that fast moving and there is plenty of room to open new threads there. Segregating it into subforums tend to chase away readers.

bro.. d reason i support to open subforum coz for this time being.. anything related to stock has been jumble up into 1 makin its vry difficult to talk ab certain specific topics...

I think readers are just not doing proper searches. They can't expect everything to be at the top of the page.

Why not open new threads in the main subforum then? I'll add stockmarket tags for easy filtering of threads.

That could work. IF the TS remembers to tag the thread then it'll make things a hell of a lot easier when filtering. Unless of course there's 200 different stock market threads but I doubt it'll get to that level.

errr.... d mod usually will merged wit any topic related to stocks wit d pinned thread...

I'm asking for one sub-forum for stock market discussion only. As I don't think it warrants 2 sub-forums as well. I'm not sure if all forum users are aware or know how to tag their threads properly and like low yat 82 has said, at the moment the mods are closing new stock market threads in the Finance sub-forum and redirecting people to the stock market thread.

Searching for stock market related threads now only points to the main thread which like have been presented, is not a suitable place to hold discussions due to heavy posting.

ok, sounds fair.

There will be one new subforum under Finance for Stock Market discussions, but due to the potential for abuse, it will be a no-post-count subforum.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

its ok wit me post count not important to me d... huhuhu coz already achieve 500 post liao

Off-topic yet on-topic:
While you're with the tags, hope you can consider on just adding these few tags as well:
- Anime Shrine: Cosplay
- Gamer's Hideout: Arcade, General (this is for news or general discussion)

Also, hopefully there can also be a sticky on one Cyber Cafe Business topic in the Finance section.
A search done in that section --> http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=Sear...hlite=cybercafe
There's 5 of this popular topics; and it could've been 6 last time when I made one (back when the section just started), but it was merged.

This thread can be closed now. The stock market sub-forum has been created by the mods already and I like to thank everyone for their support for this. Cheers!

i admire your guts to be different.
