QuoteReplyTopic: Staying on Topic! Posted: February 19 2005 at 12:44pm
Hey ladies, just somthing Ive been thinking about. And please dont take this wrong because I am not criticizing ANYONE, because I am probably as guilty as anyone! But anyway, Ive noticed that our threads get so far off topic and I cannot find anything anymore! LOL Ive seen our threads go so far off topic that we have a whole new topic going on in a thread that isnt even relevent to the original topic! With so much useful information on this board its a shame to see it get lost! And I hope that a newbie or someone looking for certain infomation will be able to find what they need!
Just a thought girls, Hope you dont yell at me too much!
its like that in any message board tho, it just follows the rules of any normal conversation. sometimes its easier to just follow along then start a new thread, ya know?

Yeah It wouldnt be so bad if this board was divided up in to categories and topics and sub-topics. Ideally it would be nice to be setup something similar to Quinns board or something.
I know I do it too, get to going on about something else than what the original post was, its normal sometimes for conversation to veer off into a different direction. But now that this board is getting so many visitors and so many posts per day alot of valuable information is getting lost in the shuffle. Thats my only concern. I know there has been alot of things that has been posted that Id like to go back and re-read for the information but I cant find it cause it ends up 2 or 3 pages back and I have to read through every thread to find it cause it was totally off the topic of the thread! LOL
Oh well, I just thought that if we find ourselves getting too off topic that we might want to start up another thread. I will *try* to remember to do that!
Hehe...I've been digressing a lot myself lately....
By the way, I'm putting together a list of FAQs (it's gonna take a little while to complete), which I hope will be helpful for beginners and for the rest of us trying to find old threads. We'll see.
:)
Edit: Actually, I'm looking at the FAQ list I started, and I don't think it's really going to be that valuable. We've covered so many topics with so many threads here, I sort of feel like a FAQ kiosk would be so long and cumbersome, it would just make more sense to use the search tool...lol. :)
