AI Thread Summary
The new layout of the General Discussion (GD) forum has been positively received, with users appreciating the changes and thanking Greg for his efforts. There is a call for a dedicated subforum for relationship issues, as many believe these topics warrant a separate space due to their frequency. Some users suggest nominating a more experienced member to mentor this new subforum. Additionally, there are discussions about moving various photo threads and ensuring all relevant content is organized properly. Overall, the community is engaged in enhancing the forum's structure and content accessibility.

It was like walking into a room that you've been in a thousand times, and realizing that someone rearranged the furniture! It's very nice :smile:!

Somebody's been working hard. Thanks. It looks great.
 
Thanks Greg!

I'll move more of the photo threads later. Anyone with links to photo threads that they want moved, leave them on my visitor message page.
 
Okay, I'm inept. Did all of the stickied threads from the top the GD forum move to somewhere else? And if so, where would that somewhere else be? :smile:

Thanks very much, Greg! :smile: :approve:
 
Why isn't there a subforum for girlfriend/ boyfriend/ relationship problems and worries? These topics seem to require a subforum for themselves. There are so many of them!

we do have room for it, any other opinions?
 
:smile: I was thinking the same thing, we need a subforum for relationship troubles. Or a library entry, or an FAQ thread, or a get-a-clue stick. :rolleyes: :biggrin:

And I nominate Cyrus to be the mentor for it. :devil:

Perhaps we should nominate a member who has actually HAD a relationship. There are times when people need a gut-check, not just a slam-down from a fellow who is planning to live with his parents until his mid-30's until some compliant girl with perfect skin (etc) shows up. Have you actually read his posts?

All contest threads?

Edit: there were lots of threads that qualify (like "Pebbles or?") - but I wonder if I should report them to Evo. Pebbles thread was started by Andre, so perhaps he should decide. I will browse the GD to look for my older threads with pictures from Poland, if I will find something else I will post it here - not for Evo to move, but for others to make their mind.

Pebbles is here:

Thanks Borek, It's on Evo visitors page. I would not bother about the older photo contest thread. Too many of them and they can be found back via the sticky of the photo contest winner thread.

I think it's a great idea.

I'll get these moved over after work. If anyone can remember some of the fun quizes we had, those would be nice to have also.

It looks great!

Wow! Though, I thought it was going to be in "Fun and Games." :biggrin: Then again, I guess the bad relationships don't belong there...or maybe they do. :rolleyes:

Thanks again, Greg.

It was a joke, because I know how much Cyrus absolutely HATES those threads. That's why my comment was followed by the devil smiley. :wink: :biggrin:

I think there's a link problem. Or I don't understand what I'm doing.

The 'PhD Comics' subforum link actually takes me to 'Fun, Photos & Games'

Either you're defective or it's fixed now. :biggrin:

Moved.

Basically these were not to move, but to consider, sorry for not being clear :shy:

Not that anything wrong have happened, they were all obviously photography related, just not started by me nor Marzena.

They fit the new forum.

Thank you for your efforts!:smile:
So why the relationship forum's not listed in index?
 
  • #34
I know where it is:biggrin:
I was just wondering why it's not listed in main index like other GD sub-forums!:wink:
 
  • #35
Lack of space?
 
  • #36
I just noticed: right under the link to GD on the main page it still says "Brain Teasers". Shouldn't that be replaced?
