Section additions and removals
As you've probably noticed, we've been making some changes and alterations recently, but before I go into that I want to quickly thank you all for your feedback these last few weeks. It's really nice to see so many of you care about the forum so much
In short the changes involve:
- Putting two of the ideas on hold for now (The Big Debate and Have Your Say sections)
- Adding new sections and removing some that weren't used much
- Adding the ability for mods to mark any thread as a 'members only' thread (contents of thread will then not show to guests)
Overal I think the forum is much better balanced - the new health sections in particular can now better serve our age demographic.
Well, that's about it really! A nice simple update
I will however leave you with what I've given the mods as their guidelines on thread categorisation (see next post)
but its quite simple really; if the topic of a thread has a section, the thread goes in there. If not, then the next best section is based on the type of thread it is, for instance, whether it's a 'rant', a news item, a discussion, etc. Use these two simple rules and you'll be fine
Thanks again for your time and patience, and I really do think this is all the changes for a while
Further updates:
Yes, I know, I am still tweaking things
I will list them here as I go along.
I have removed the
Happy Corner section. It just wasn't get used much. I think what we can do instead though, is use the normal General Chat section for such threads and simply add 'Happy Thread:' in the title and just mention in the first post that we would only like positive replies. Hopefully everyone else will honour that request, if not, I will ask Meg and Mags to sort them out
