comments/questions/ suggestions for Agon

While i think that Agon does a very good job overall, i've got a few questions and comments for them that i think might improve some things and make the members / users of the forums happier at the same time. If others agree / disagree with these points or have other comments/suggestions to make, please chime in either way. I'm sure that Agon doesn't mind finding out what is on our mind once in a while : )

1) The subject line should be removed when responding to a thread. Too many people still think that you can see what is entered into this section. As such, they input makes, models, various comments there and then expound upon that info in the main text area. Only problem is, most of us have no idea what they are talking about since we can't see what they entered into the subject line and they don't make mention of that info again in the body of the main text.

2) Personally, i would like to see a link from Agon to Vgon ( Videogon ) on the home page and vice-versa. Not only would this make it easy to go from site to site, it might encourage / enlighten more Agon members that visit a site that they might not know exists and vice-versa.

3) Is there a specific reason that our feedback from Agon is not being carried over to Vgon? Since many people that use Agon will probably end up using Vgon, this would make life a lot simpler. When attempting to purchase something that is listed on Vgon, most of the time, the seller has no feedback listed for them due to Vgon being so new. As such, i typically have to jump back over onto Agon to see if this person is a member there and what their feedback is like. This shouldn't be necessary as good / bad audio feedback is the same as good / bad video feedback. If anything, i think that audiophiles are more "anal" / take better care of their gear / have higher standards than videophiles. Can we do something to tie the member feedback from both sites together?

4) Is there some way to alter the "maintenance schedule" that Agon goes through every night? This slows down the system drastically. Moving maintenance time a few hours further into the night ( like 2 or 3 AM CST rather than 12 AM CST ) would probably effect fewer people and still get the job done.

5) I rarely bother stopping by the dispute resolution forum because it seems like a waste of time. That is, we never know what came out of the whole ordeal. Contributing points of view to such a forum is kind of like talking to a brick wall. That is, you don't know if you're doing any good as you never get a response.

6) Keep up the good work. If this is all that there is to whine about, you know that we are all basically happy here : ) Sean
