IFG Website Suggestions/ Issues

Posts that don't fit into any other category. If it's anything to do with guns, it probably doesn't belong here!

Library / Resources-Download:

Can we open a new Link called Library or start links under Resources / Downloads which will have links to all the important documents pertaining to gunning / air gunning in India? It may contain links to rulings w.r.t NRAI, DGFT, Customs, licensing, RTI’s and any other updates related to Guns / Air guns. The same can be downloaded by members for their respective uses. RTI's can be scanned and posted on the site so that the same can be used by members.

The member who has the link / document can either post it there or send it to a moderator who would approve the same with the moderator’s panel and post it on the forum.

1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

i would agree with m24 with all the points he has raised.

i would like also to add that lots of work goes into sharing the info ie notification/rti etc. if the mods and the owner of IFG(not me that is) would agree that a paid service should be had to maintain the forum.

or a once off yearly subscription charge be made.

We had a section called "Knowledge Base" where all relevant articles etc were posted.Now, we have stickies in each section that deal with important issues. Notifications etc, can be uploaded as PDF files into relevant sections.But, if you folks prefer a seperate section called "Knowledge Base" to post them, that can be done by requesting the Admin.

Can we have some specifics please as to what exactly goes in there? At the moment,as said above, you do have various important topics as stickies in relevant sections.

Best-

It can either be uploaded in Resources/Knowledge or Resources/Downloads. Basically, it will contain legal documents like scans of RTI's that we are doing(Once the successful reply for the RTI has been received), links to various govt. rulings, notifications, license forms and any other info. related to Guns / air guns in India. The same can be kept exclusive for members only or can be viewed by guests.

Decide a POC for this, all the docs/links can go to the POC, who after consulting with Sys Admin and Moderators will approve it and upload it for community use.

Every few months old for sale/ wanted posts get moved to the "trash can" (pending final deletion) and topics in the trash can are not publicly viewable, which is why you cannot view the topic you have listed above...

Presently it takes two clicks to go to the ""For Sale" section which can be exasperating on slow connections. Wonder if it would be possible to cut down one step by placing all three sub-menus, that is, the For Sale, Wanted and Feedback in the opening page/pane/tab/whatever it is called. It used to be there in the earlier version/format of the IFG.
