I have received numerous complaints that your messages about Kim and Karen are not contained with fewer (or only one) thread.
I've asked you before to refrain from posting new threads every time you want to comment on Kim or Karen.
I am asking you again to keep discussion of Kim and Karen within one
thread. There are plenty of threads already in existence to
continue your discussing them. Please channel further comments on
Kim and Karen within existing threads.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Dave,
I don't mean to undermine your authority, as I am new to this board especially, but I don't understand why this would be a problem. A new thread might get people to notice more and create more views and interest. Is this a problem, is it costing this board money?? Because it seems like there is plenty of space. I am just wondering why people are complaining, because if they don't want to read a thread, they should not go into it. This is just my respectful opinion, people are aloud to say whatever they want within reason, as I am using that privilege right now. I guess I just don't understand why people bring politics and complaints into a thing that is suppsed to be fun and useful! If this poster was saying something outlandish and/or offensive, then yes, maybe some action should be taken. However I don't think this is true in this case.
Thank you for your time
Mandie

Man, this stinks.
You mean Lovebobs wont be able to start a new thread 35 years from now called "Kim and Karen Get The Golden Girls, Bea Aurthur and Betty White hairstyle"
Dave could you go to the celeb board and suggest the same thing... maybe a generic post called Oooooo Great Hair. All the So and So is looking so good could go there. Just a thought.

No Hal, we need one thread called "Celebrity hair according to Fatmoogas", or should it be its own board?

Hi Lovebobs, Thanks for agreeing to give this a try. I think
it'll work out well. If not, we can reconsider. Fair enough?
Hi mandiegirl, There is no problem with space or money. I am not
seeking to limit expression. If a person is posting "outlandish"
or offensive messages, there are other ways to deal with that situation
(editing or deleting posts, and/or bans). Several people
communicated to me that they found the large number of threads on the
same topic to clutter up the board. If you're interested in Kim
& Karen "updates," you will probably be better able to do that if
they commentary is contained within only one thread. Otherwise
you might be left to wonder about the 27th prior update thread and
whether or not you missed it. On the main forum page, all threads
show the timestamp of the latest post, and are sorted in order of date
last updated, so updates on any topic should be easy to find.
Dark Helmet, Well, long-running TV
soap's such as "General Hospital" seem to have maintained their
audience despite not changing their name with every episode...
Hal, hmm... At least the celeb in question is different with each
thread. Let's just say that his strength lies in finding current
pics of different celebs. No comment on the quality of the
verbiage.

As I'm sure you know Dave...I was just tugging at your chair a little.

What verbiage? A picture's worth a thousand words.
BTW Given that ssjockey seems to dislike my posts so much, I advise him to avoid them, or--wishful thinking, no doubt--find another board, where he can find true pictures of celebrity hair, worthy of his aesthetic attention.
*As for Hal and his "Oooo look at her hair thread"--I never do it. I give my posts context and expect others to do the same. Sometimes there is a new picture(s), or a new evaluation based on several periods in the celebrity's life. Sometimes there is an attempt to find new celebrities who are also worthy of interest--even beyond the shores of the U.S. So far, I have not been guilty through my inoffensive postings, of upsetting any other person here, in the way that Hal upset Beach Blonde with his aggressive attitude and posturings.
Some people on this board should really lighten up. We are not talking about politics, or anything very important even. However, some of the bile that comes across pretty regularly, from certain quarters here, could hardly be more intense if we were planning future strategy (or the lack of it) in Iraq! Personally, I am pretty sure that we are dealing primarily with the problem of a few preening egos who feel that they started up with the board some years ago--and can now only feel happy if they put up posts that make their long term seniority apparent (as if you can have long term seniority on a hair board!)

Hi Dave...
I also get lots of complaints about the many LoveBobs threads so I appreciate you speaking up. And yes...the complaints I receive is about duplication and cluttering up the rest of the threads. So I and several other members are in total agreement.
LoveBobs...
Why not create your own thread in the Hair Journals? After all, you are keeping track of Kim and Karen's hair journeys with you are the narrator.
Purplebubba...thank you.
LoveBob...PB has done a great job of explaining how to set up the journals and that way you can post nonstop about Kim and Karen and have your very own thread to build. I think that might be the very best solution. If you have questions or problems getting them set up...I am sure PB would help...right PB?
SSJ & Fatmoogas....I am fans of both of your posting but as we have done with the 360Wave Forum...we ask people that irritate each other to just ignore those posts. It is human nature to not always like everyone and the best way to deal with that, it go opposite directions.
Hal....good to see you. Even if you are messing with Dave a little bit. :-)
To everyone else...thanks for your concern and participation on the boards.
Dave...I will move all of LoveBobs various threads into one location whether he creates a Journal or not.
That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger or drives you totally insane. :-)

I hear you, Karen and agree. In fact, it's probable that the above post is the only time I've ever referred to jockey by name. He, I think, cannot say the same thing. I absolutely guarantee never to refer to him again, as long as he does the same thing for me.

Hi Fatmoogas,
That sounds fair to me. When someone gets under my skin, I just go the opposite direction. That way...everyone can do their own thing and not irritate each other. :-) As I said...I am a fan of both of your various postings and don't want either of you to go away. :-)
Best wishes, Karen

Thanks PB.
I think if LoveBobs started a Journal he could go to town with his reports and everyone would be happy.

im not interested in starting a journal
ill keep all the posts under the new topic i started , kim , karen news..... i feel more people will see it under the short hair title and since they both have short hair i feel its proper to keep the thread here do we agree???????
if they grow it out i guess ill have to consider other options
Long with BLUNT bangs or ALL cut to lip length, I cant decide my favorite!
January 1st - Lovebobs: Karen got her hair cut. Here's the picture link _________
January 1st - Other person 1: Wow looks great.
March 1st - Lovebobs: Karen got her hair cut. Here's the picture link _________
March 2nd - Other person 2: Wow looks great.
May 10th - Lovebobs: Kimgot her hair cut. Here's the picture link _________
May 12th - Other person 1: Wow looks great.

With a thread like this I don't think we're going to mind if you are
bumping it up when it is old. If this gets bumped up it's going to
usually be one of two things.
Either you are adding pictures or comments. Or someone else is commenting.
That's what I think the point is. I can understand not wanting to do a
journal because then people can't comment. They would probably end up
starting a thread just to post comments.
