Problems with the Electribe subforum.

The Korg forum is a great place to share knowledge and solve problems anyone has with any Korg product.
The problem with the Electribe forum is that there are 13 Electribes spanning a range of 16 years which are, across generations, not all alike.
People post questions asking "How do I do X on my electribe", getting answers that are completely unsuitable - because they were asking for a how-to on f.e. a Generation 1 ES-1, and getting answers from people referring to the Electribe 2.

It would really help keeping things organized (and clear) if it could at least be split on generations..

A subforum for the EA/ES generation, a subforum for the EMX/ESX generation, and a subforum for Electribe 2 / Electribe 2 Sampler.

I don't know who has the actual power over the Korg Forum phpBB admin interface, but it really shouldn't be too hard to create those subfora - and rename the old / current "Electribe" forum to "Electribe - legacy forum" so all current threads stay archived and relevant..

Thanks for the feedback.
I'll certainly consider this as it makes perfect sense.

Kind regards

So uhm... seeing as nothing has changed, I can assume your considering efforts reached the conclusion of "Nuh-uh, not going to happen!" ?

Hello.
No, that's incorrect. We use phpBbv2 which doesn't even support sub forums. We have to upgrade to v3 first.

That's not so easy as we are running a lot of custom code that will be dumped in the process.
