I was making one but Jan told me that the banners' format/size might change, so I'm waiting for the new size.

how about we put are ideas here

put put put :D

the banner should showing the icons of major cites merged into one image,or another suggestion we can put the historical building with the new one.

i don't like the idea of merging!

^^I love it! It makes the banner flahy!

guys i think it's time to improve photo and skybashka, section i checked many of the old threads lost the pictures links or the whole thread created just for asking a question so here the new task iam ready to do.

merge threads that have same topic or point.
deleting pictures threads that has a broken links.
creating thread for welcoming new member.
creating thread for questions and query about Saudi Arabia.


if you have any idea or observations please don't hesitate for telling us.

merge threads that have same topic or point.
deleting pictures threads that has a broken links.
creating thread for welcoming new member.
creating thread for questions and query about Saudi Arabia.


:okay:

I think it would be good to stick those two threads at the top "Welcoming New Members" & "Questions and Queries About Saudi Arabia".

It might not be worth it, but I think we should create a new thread to document all Header Banners that appear here on SSC with the date of their appearance. And even from other sites, if possible. And for further order, there might as well be a thread dedicated to all Saudi Arabia Banners from which SSC Administration can choose.

Some suggestions, I think, worth the consideration.

PLEASE SG ban RANA AAA from particpating in the Saudi forum. she/he is troll!! she just pops once every couple of days and brings up tons of old non-updated projects and asks ridiculous questions!

26 posts!!!in one day?!! niceeee..
I didn't mean to offend you personally.I was talking about the "situation" about the case not you!!
by the way...which thread was it ? :) I mean the one with the 26 posts :bash:
26 posts in one day!! I really need to behave my self:bash:

^^u posted on 26 different threads on audi section ofcourse some of them were updates


Sorry Sdare if u get annoyed with me

^^
Rana, I'm not talking on behalf of anybody here but I think it's not that you annoyed them rather than the fact that you brought up old projects to the surface. And some of them are done already!

Your posts actually make me kinda glad that there're many people, like your good self, who are interested in the development of Saudi Arabia. But, you just gotta know when the post asking for updates are needed or not. As there're manners for eating, there're manners of requests.

And I don't think I would've put it in a better phrase than Saudi Guy's when he posted:
try to avoid creating posts only for asking updates,definitely if we have new update we will post it!aren't we?

I don't think we, here, are too cheap to even share the photo updates of our own country's projects, don't you agree?

but if we want to know the curret satuts of the project so we can ask that do we..???

Rana,asking for the current status of any thread is not a big issue............But your main problem is that u ask for the status of thousands of threads together the same day,better you avoid this......Then people wont blame on you like this. :):)

but if we want to know the curret satuts of the project so we can ask that do we..???

that true but isn't better to find the updates on website instead of asking others?

How can it be because of you? I noticed a decrease in the forum's activity too. I personally don't contribute as much as I used to do because I don't have opportunities of taking many photos any more, but I still read the forum.

lool sorry for not clarifying my comment i was in rush,i meant that i used to update jeddah 's projects weekly but now some project updating every month or not updated at all.

We hope your return to Saudi ,, very soon ,
while you are in Tampa , can you do contact with other members like Rudy , XP , Riyadhy and other guys ,

i think this is not the right place for such topic; however, you can create this topic somewhere here instead (Meddle East general section)
http://www.skyscrapercity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2341

thank you very much
it's done .

guys i want to hear your opinion, i was thinking to create new subsections for the projects into four separated sections, one section for each region!

ex:
Najid: including Riyadh,almjammah, unizah...etc
Hijaz: including Jeddah,Makkah,Taif....etc
Eastern region : including Dammam,Khobar,Dahran...etc
Special Section for Economic cities
General: including other cities,transportation,plus there possible to merge economic cities here...etc

OR

we can make one section for every city!

if you think separating is useless then we can leave it like how it's now!

waiting your responds.

hmmmm i was thinking the same thing,,, but we don't have that many members in the saudi forums to keep it active.. we might see sections die ?

or not :p will u need extra mods ;p

i think that the Hijaz thread will always be active. you should let Makkah have its own because projects there never stops, every year there is something new

if you think separating is useless then we can leave it like how it's now!

waiting your responds.

I think separating the forum that why will be useless, instead we should create the sup-forum so that everyone one of it will have its own job

for example we should create three new sup-forums

1- Project.
Skyscrapers, building, etc

2- Transportation and Urban Development.
Roads, railways, airports, seaport, public ares, gardens, etc

3- Mega Projects.
Economic cities, etc

^^ I second that!!

^^ thats great :)

maybe completed projects should have its own also ?

TDOD you are great i really like your categories! lets wait and see what others think! thanks

for example we should create three new sup-forums

1- Project.
Skyscrapers, building, etc

2- Transportation and Urban Development.
Roads, railways, airports, seaport, public ares, gardens, etc

3- Mega Projects.
Economic cities, etc

it is a good idea, with keeping the other two sections (photos and Sky Bashka), to be five-sections in the forum.

I'm in favor of both prepositions.

also PLEASE change the name of "Sky Bashka" to something nicer keep it arabic :)

^^the same idea, if you and the others don't mind.:)

^^
any suggestions ?!

So, if I ever were to reorganize the entire forum I think it'll go like this:

SSC Saudi Arabia sub-forums:

- #1 Projects Forum:
* Eastern Province section (the entire Eastern coast)
* Hejaz Section (the entire Western coast + Southern regions included)
* Nejd Section (Central-Northern regions included)

- #2 Megaprojects Forum:
* Economic Cities
* Universities

- #3 Transportation and Urban Development Forum

- #4 Photos Forum

- #5 SkyBashka (I would also change Bashka to something more "region-neutral") Forum:
* News Section


et voilà! :)

^^ remove "Megaprojects Forum"

and make subforums under (#1 Projects Forum) like

#1 Projects Forum:
- Nejd Section (Forum)
- Eastern Province Section (Forum)
- Hejaz Section (Forum) westren + Southern Provinces
- Economic Cities (Forum)
- Universities (Forum)
- Completed Projects & Hall of Fame (Forum)
regular project threads (under Projects Forum)

#2 Transportation and Urban Development Forum

#3 Photography Forum

#4 KSA Lounge ?

also PLEASE change the name of "Sky Bashka" to something nicer keep it arabic
- #5 SkyBashka (I would also change Bashka to something more "region-neutral") Forum

could you give us an examples!sky bashka seems nice name imo!

^^ i don't even know "baskha" is :p not in my vocab

SkyGahwa ? does it have to have "sky" ?

nop it's not necessary to have "sky" ;however, the new name should be unique and easy to read by non Arabic speakers!

google didn't help LOL

http://www.google.com.au/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=بصخه&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&redir_esc=&ei=vXTGTMHPJsewcZil4O0N

Names:
1- Dar Al Hewar , دار الحوار
2- Dar Al Hadeth, دار الحديث
3- Sky Majlis , المجلس


I would like to add university with mega projects

So it will be,

1- Project.
Skyscrapers, building, etc

2- Transportation and Urban Development.
Roads, railways, airports, seaport, public ares, gardens, etc

3- Mega Projects.
Economic cities, University's, etc

5- Photos

6- Discussion thread ( Whatever was that name )

hopfully the other neighbours follow

I dont like mesch and gulfarabia ideas. Imagine how time consuming would it be when you are following your favorite projects!

it won't time that much time ... mouse clicks :p

it will make our forums more organised, and there are many IGNORED projects there just because they go behind

The Dude of Dhahran

dont't forget Completed projects

it won't time that much time ... mouse clicks :p

no its time consuming and makes people or at least me getting lost. I used to organize my files this way on my computer and man its really confusing when i'm looking for a specific thing.

its not that complicated. ur afraid of change ?

could you give us an examples!sky bashka seems nice name imo!

Umm, i don't know :)
I just think that it should be something neutral (not Hejazi-centered, not Nejdi-centered, not Shargawi-centered). I mean I didn't know the word Bashka existed until I started visiting the forums (Although I did start visiting long years ago but whatever it still counts :p) and I'm guessing the same went for other non-Hejazi forumers. I'm not in favor of formal Arabic names either (like TDOD examples)..
Anyways.. Good luck coming up with a name :lol:

Sdare - I can understand it being time consuming but how in hell does it make research harder??!

^^oh my bad...iam sorry for choosing bashka i thought it well known around the kingdom!

btw the completed projects it is not practical!

i like Bashkah , i didn't know it's just a Hijazy word ,,
we've always used bashkah , ybashek and bashek :) , and am from Riyadh :)

what about
majlees
8a3dah
dewaniah ,

Sdare - I can understand it being time consuming but how in hell does it make research harder??!

Hello guys! hope u fine!
Why don't we have a separate forum for Saudi Arabia alone, we have to get one like the UAE's
I hope the moderate doesn't mind but really we have too much going on in Saudi Arabia! we are not Jordan, Syria, Sudan...etc

I see no point in requesting that when other, larger, sub-forums haven't gotten their own forums yet (e.g. Morocco, Israel, and Lebanon). And the Saudi forum isn't all that active to begin with.


And you should've posted this in the "To The Mod" thread, I think.

Saudi section only needs now to reorganize itself with more sub-sections and merge the similar topics into one thread! since a while I'm seriously thinking to put a request to the administration but need to pick up the best suggestion that has provided on page 4.

UAE is exceptional for having it own section for two reasons 1- the massive amount of investments 2- hyperactive members and reporters.

may someone please merge these 2 threads ,,
FARASAN ISLANDS l Photo gallery
(http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1295313)&Saudi islands
(http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?p=87329328#post87329328)

if Saudi guy don't mind :))

but those two are completely different islands, are you sure want to merge them together?

i mean having one thread for all the Saudi Islands :)

humm I like it because its more practical to have all those tiny islands in one basket but what I hate about it we are putting dozens of deserted islands with one island that has been occupied by thousand residents! it just not fair.

but I assume the pros are more convincing!

I agree with the both of you :crazy: I suppose Farasan should have its own thread though.

Plz change the title of thread to:

Hello Saudi guy i have a suggestion about the Saudi Arabian forum layout it's very unorganized and alot of threads aren't updated the Saudi here only concentrating on one section or 2 sections only i mean like Saudi Arabian aviation thread it's damn empty so is for the sky bashkha and other photos sections too I'm suggesting that you change this ugly unorganized layout it has only have 3 sections so what do you think guys i mean you can post a propsel ill start first

Projects and construction (bar)

Riyadh(section) Jeddah (section) general Saudi Arabia (sections )

Photos and the photography (bar)

Economy and development news

Transport infrustructure (section)general economy (sections )

Club forums (bar)
Sky Bashkha

Here is.my propsel what do you think ?

^^ We already discussed that a while back. We agreed on nothing.

===

Nice job, SG. :)

@ lady gaga current layout is not bad at all, it only need extra sections.

We already discussed that a while back. We agreed on nothing.

fortunately that is incorrect, since yesterday I'm trying to convince the mods to add three new sub-sections under project (suggestion posted by TDOD ).
1-Buildings
2-Transportation and Urban Development
3-Economic cities

Nice job
Hope everyone don't mind if I changed their own titles.

^^ I don't think anyone would mind. It's for the better afterall. :)

On another note, I'd really like it if we remodeled the Saudi forum after the Lebanese or Moroccan forums. These are very good examples of what an organized forum should look like.

the problem is that we don't have enough active members.

Guy's that's what I'm saying the Saudi forum is very unorganized go to the Africa forim Kenya section that's an example of organization but be careful not to add to much sections or the forum will go dead ch cheers everyone ;)
