Link home page video discussions to a thread, and not just a general link to /forums.

Hello,

The articles/videos on the site home page are usually pretty neat to read/watch, and there is ALWAYS a link included that says something along the lines of:
"ALSO SEE: What the Forum Has to Say About the Professional Geländewagen"

But the links are always just to mbworld.org/forums, the forum main page listing the six thousand sub forums.

Instead, it would be nice if the author made an actual thread, maybe just under general discussion, and linked an actual thread to the article/video so people could go discuss the video in that thread after seeing the article/video.

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback. Good idea, I'm not sure how we can gain the support of the community to follow your lead.

It's not my lead? I can't post articles on the main page of the site haha. Who ever is posting the articles there, which is probably only a couple of people with access I'd guess, already is posting a link in the article just to the forums so clearly they have some sort of protocol when posting the main page articles.

Ask the two people that post the articles on the main page to instead make a thread in this forum: https://mbworld.org/forums/general-m...discussion-22/
for the article, and link that thread instead of the forums home page.

It would be very simple to have them do haha, and then the link would actually take people some where to discuss the article/video.
