I kinda like the university idea, but the problem comes up that is it going to be a Canadian university?, if so there won't be a lot of stuff applicable to us as most of there studies are cold water stuff, so a lot of differences, so that would be my only question. the other issue is to get a regular post on related topics from a university, it is going to take more than a little donation, to get a large segment of there time and dedication it would take some big bucks.

there are other ways to "piggyback" on articles and such with subscription services, but I have know idea what they would cost and so on.

I know years ago when ever some one would find an interesting read they would post a link to it and there used to be a lot of discussion on it, but that doesn't seam to happen anymore.

so I guess what I would like to see is a lot more user posted stuff like the old days, we all learned a heck of a lot in a short period of time, mind you we didn't have to many sponsors that we would upset by posting how to make stuff in the DIY forum. so I don't know how much of a concern that would be, and I don't want to be banned for two years for exposing the reality of a deceptive product like I did on reef central .

I like perusing all new posts on one page and not have to go into the forum section to specifically look at buy/sell. I pretty much don't look at buy/sell anymore which is potentially a loss to sellers.

If you click the new posts button at the top of every page, it shows ALL new posts, including buy and sell.

Did not read all of the replies so do not know if this was suggested or not. Is there an option to look at posts that are a week old, or a month old....sometimes I read a post, and want to go back to it and the search option has not helped. "New Posts" is great. But sometimes the post is a day or two old. As a newer member I find the site very helpful.

Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but you can "add to a person's reputation" by clicking on the little scale of justice icon, top right corner of any post. This causes the green button count to increase in number/value depending on the number of reputation clicks a person gets. Most of us are mere mortals 'on a distinguished road'. A certain mod has way too many green lights, not sure how that happened . He is superhuman.....or a diamond in the rough... words to that effect...

I'll even fix you up with a click for bringing up the subject.

EDIT: While on the subject, perhaps a method of accessing reputation info for members themselves might not be a bad idea. I've had a quick look & other than the pop up I get when hovering over my own 'green' button, there appears no way of knowing who has contributed to my reputation & what the associated comments were. Also no way of reviewing the comments I've made when adding to another member's reputation.
