Maybe bundle Domainlore details to avoid bumping down other posts?

Please don't take this thought the wrong way. It is only a thought. When I come to the homepage of Acorn Domains, I today find 31 separate posts detailing individual domains up for sale at Domainlore. Now I have used Domainlore myself and it's a valuable site, but I find it a little frustrating that other people's posts get bumped down the page and out of sight so quickly. I know there is a 'more' button I can click at the bottom, but how many people do that? I suspect we mostly just read what's on the front page. So I wondered: couldn't Domainlore domain sales be 'bundled' up in groups of 10, so we end up with 3 posts instead of 30. UKBackorder tends to 'bundle' latest domains like that, which I think is a more proportionate approach. As I said, please don't take this as a hostile post. It's not. It's just a thought and suggestion. Domainlore is a valuable site, and Acorn Domains is really useful. Thank you for all the commitment involved.

Hi, a valid suggestion.

We quite often talk among ourselves - what to show on the frontpage..

Have you noticed the header menu "Discussions"? .. would you prefer this content for the frontpage?
 
hmmm... this raises up a potentially really good conversation..

maybe instead, we should have a different frontpage layout? 1st - "Discussions"; 2) could be "Marketplace Ads" posts (newly updated topics), and 3) sold domains feed? ..

would love to hear more thoughts

and, of course, this isn't taken the wrong way - it is great to see members suggestion how the forum can be improved.

@Prashanna could you try creating a custom frontpage for Acorn and publish in the top menu as "Test Frontpage"? .. let us test it :) Thank you
