DFW Diaries: Do you think they should have their own sub board?

carrottopsuk

I love the DFW diaries however sometimes questions get lost amongst them and sometimes the diaries get lost amongst the questions

With this in mind do you think it is time for the DFW diaries to have their own sub board?

Just wondering what other people thought

PS I forgot to include 'diaries' in the poll - it's been one of those days lol

How often does this question pop up? Quite a lot.

I have a diary and don't agree, i like it, makes it more community like to see everyones.

Maybe I've missed previous questions amongst all the diaries? lol

No seriously - I like reading the diaries and would continue read them if they were on a sub - board.

If as you say the question pops up quite a lot - maybe quite a few people think they should have their own sub board but I suppose a lot of people think that it should continue the way it is.

This discussion pops up over and over and as ended up being the same answer everytime.
Personally I answer questions on things that I can but seeing as I know nothing about DMP,IVA Bankruptcy I leave those to people that have that knowledge.
I partake in a number of diaries as they are like a network of friends..I also try to answer the desperate pleas as well.
There is only so much help and time people can give as well as dealing with their own stresses in life.
I also know that a lot of the people with diaries also make valid contributions to other peoples questions but nobody has time to reply to everybody as much as they'd like to.
I myselg go through my subsribed to diaries first then go into about 3 or 4 other boards and scan through and see if I can help with anything.If I can I will ...if I don't know the answer then there is no point in writing about something I know nothing about.

The diaries are inspiration to a lot of people who read the board.

A lot of the questions that get posted, especially by new posters are, in general the same and new posters tend to be welcomed and advised to put up an SOA.

A lot of the boards run along the same lines, a poster is directed here from elsewhere and posts their request....they are then pointed in the right direction and shown the relevant threads/sub boards that already exist and will help to answer their query.

I think it should stay as it is.

i think lots of new posts would be missed by regulars if diaries were seperat. i check the forum to post on diaries and get updated on people, while im there i try to answer questions if i feel i can help. i would prob miss them if they were seperate.

aaaaaand altogether now!!!!!

HEEEEEEERE WE GO AGAIN!!! HAAAAAPPPYYYYY AS CAN BE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LA LA LA LA LA LA LA





DO we REALLY need to have this debate again and again and again anad again and again...... ?????????


MSE towers have made quite clear where they stand on this subject and will not put diaries into a sub board so a further debate is kinda pointless.

perhaps we should just bump the previous polls about the polls once a week or so.

If we bump them in the right order, it would look like a mexican wave...
