This is not a social forum

Maybe not but it's the first step isn't it? Everyone's got to start somewhere and an SOA is a very good place for that!

I have never posted one and never will not everyone new to a forum wants to put that much privileged info on public display. SOmetimes you need to spend more time with a person and build there confidence we are complete strangers.

Well of course.. all I'm saying is that even if someone replies and just says post an SOA it's still a starting point and the OP can then take that on board and go from there... an SOA isn't just for the board...

15 chat, challenges or diary threads on page one this topic is very valid!

I did request that the challenges could be listed in a sticky post, so there would be less need for bumping them. But no-one ever replied

Its a shame because something needs doing, I think a diary labelled sub forum would actually be excellent, people could actively and easily find them rather than picking through pages.

Like you mentioned something for challenges would be good, it is just a minefield of regulars who still need and deserve support but looks daunting for new people and with new traffic through the TV programme etc it definately needs tidying up!

I think it's because the forums as a whole were meant to be for different things but it's worked out that each board has it's own core group of members who don't, or are afraid to, post elsewhere.

And many times people come on not knowing what their situation is. An SOA gives them that knowledge.

Asking for an SOA may not be the best thing all the time, but it only ever dips to second-best.

been wondering this for a while but is it possible for entire threads to be ignored? Would maybe solve this problem? Those who dont want to read specific threads like diaries/challenges can just block individual ones and then forum would be clearer for them?
