Broken Links on Zb

Federal111 · 02-26-2008, 03:27 PM

I feel that the main page navigation should be revised as it is inaccurate

#1-

Tip of the week?

More like tip of the month? The last tip on MS monitoring your Zune was almost a month later after the last tip made on the 1st of Feb on disk cleanup during video conversion. Not a huge thing but still if it's "of the week" then there should be a tip of the week or no button there at all

#2-

Ask Zuneboards...hmm

When clicking on this link many people may wonder why it takes you to the web page http://www.zuneboards.com/, at least put a link to the user registration page or get rid of the button period considering there is a Zune help button. If not maybe create a forum where guests can post questions and view topics as if they were a member in the help forums. Email, IM? some type of way to ask the question would be nice or not have the button at all once again.

Not that this is a major issue or anything but more of a way to keep Zb looking more professional.

A website that looks like this: Pro lookin goodness
looks more appealing and able to advertisers or internet surfers than a website that looks like this
(Military equipment on a site like this) Trustworthy site?: I know HTML

yayness

If the buttons serve no purpose or inaccurate then they should be removed to make Zb look more reliable and professional

I've been meaning to get the "Ask ZuneBoards" done, but I've been pretty busy lately.

On another note, I thought you were leaving. What happened?

Federal111 · 02-26-2008, 03:44 PM

I was but I ended up staying because I love my Zune and I need the feeling that i'm not alone

Is anything going to change? Or will this post fall into ignortion

Be patient.

And don't double post.

i have a feeling that zuneboards is gonna get something better than the warez sooooon

Federal111 · 02-27-2008, 12:21 PM

I know double posting ist a bad thing but the truth is everyone pretty much just clicks on the topic that has the last post in it because they're too lazy to actually go into the forum

Gregory · 02-27-2008, 12:33 PM

I like it the way it is. Thanks for bring up "Ask ZuneBoards" was a broken link.

Federal111 · 02-27-2008, 12:46 PM

I still think the "of the week" thing should be changed because it isn't constant and doesn't happen every week

Federal111 · 02-27-2008, 01:34 PM

There are many links that seem to go... nowhere. I'll give a list of known ones:

- How it works- The link to an explanation of Zunecenitive.
- The Team- Link under about us. This may be there because this template may have previously been intended as a clan template. Or "the team" could refer to the staff?
- Advertise- Now how is Zb to make income if advertisers can't find a way to get their ads on Zb?
- The previously brought up Ask Zuneboards- Brought up in my topic on the main page navigation

I think the dead link for advertising is a glitch needed to be recognized because Zb needs income unless the admins prefer not to have any other advertisers than Zuneone and Google ads

putis · 02-27-2008, 01:35 PM

Please don't make any more threads covering the same things.

Federal111 · 02-27-2008, 01:49 PM

It's not, the other topic was my objection to the accuracy of the titles of the mainpage navigation and a small note that the Ask Zb link didn't work. Mostly me objecting to the "weekly" tip. This topic is about only broken links.
