I would for one appreciate better tracking options. Something more than just the "e-mail me when someone replies to this thread"

A "watch this thread" feature where you could pull up all your watched threads. I would REALLY like a feature like that.

If we are gonna do that how about including a snippet (or the whole thing) of the post in the emale? Or at least who posted?

Oh and PM's same thing.

yea how 'bout that?

That feature is available. Here is the path:

User control panel/Overview/Manage subscriptions

the statement that categorization leads to more unanswered threads can be countered with the new thread can quickly go off hte front page and be unanswered as well. From my own experience, I had my thread about new equipment disappear off the first page with only 1 or 2 answers in less than a day due to high volume in the forums, but I found it and posted to it to bump it back up and get more input.

Personally I can go either way with the category idea, though.

At least you got SOME answers (initially).
I just spent a little time visiting a couple of the other (well-known) forums. There are many posts with zero responses on the first and second pages and further back than that.
On those two forums, in what could be called their "General Help Questions" sections, the posting dates on the first/front page goes back at least five days on one......and on the other, it goes back to mid-January.
And, those forums have "moderators". This one is......well......"lightly" moderated......at least a couple of them peek in and post occasionally. Otherwise, they seem to trust the rest of us (adults) to try to keep some amount of order.

Don't like categories. Never know which one I don't fit in the least.

Please don't make popcorn with butter. My nutritionist might find out and kill us all.

Carbonman, what did you do to the governor?

What was the topic again?

Glad you adults are here, Den. The rest of us need that.

That is helpful! Now if I could only get THAT feature without having to get e-mail notifications every time someone posts!

Here is the path for that feature:

User control panel/Board preferences/Edit posting defaults/Notify me upon replies by default: No

That really cuts down on the email if you post often or post in popular threads.

Awesome perspective. That's exactly how multiple topic section forums sometimes feel. We talked about how it might be nice to have a separate forum for people trying to create local gatherings when we were talking at Einstein's in Atlanta earlier this month, but - meh - maybe it's better just the way it is.

I like being able to see everyone's questions in one place. I learn a lot more about other people's machines and xPAP therapies than in places where forums are separated out.

I'll have a grated Pecorino Romano on my popcorn. No extra butter or salt.

The things you learn on this forum! I never knew people put Pecorino on their popcorn!

He well might, jeff. Didn't you read the low carb threads? Butter is good for you but carbs ..... ooops, sorry guys, I didn't mean that, stop it! don't throw the popcorn at me!!!

That is EXACTLY what one of my parents would have said.

I think this forum surpassed that number of "characters" a LONG time ago.
