Exclamation New Forum

Hi Everyone,

We started a new forum for the long, ongoing, supportive threads and hope to keep them together.

Hopefully this will suit everyone!

Hi anna,

Why? I thought the idea behind most of those threads was to encourage and support newcomers

I think it means Bottoms and others like it are getting booted off!! Only kidding! I'm sure it will tidy things up a bit and make the newcomers forum more inclusive!

The purpose is to keep the Newcomers forum more clear for the newbies.

And, to keep the long, ongoing, supportive threads all together in one place.

This way, when newcomers arrive, it will be less confusing for them and hopefully more welcoming.

And, also you guys can find your threads all in once place.

I think its a great idea Anna. I hope my posting in the July thread didnt make anyone think Im a confused newcomer. Im not. Been here for years.
Think it over before inviting a friend to the forums. Telling others about this site can destroy your ability to speak freely here!
I have stalkers searcing my old screen name. Ex GFs. Unfortuneatly I have a lotta ex GFs. None of them spend anytime here. They simply click my old profile and read my posts. So, Im here with a new identity for now so I can speak freely. My friends here and those who know me will figure out who I am soon enough. Evenually I will probably go back to my old screen name. For now just call me T. My advice is be careful who you tell about SR. No comments on the boards to my identity please. Anyone who is curious can send me a PM.

I like it cause I can go to the original Newcomers to welcome and support new people and can go to the Continuing Support thread forum to post my days or congratulate others. I am happy to be a member here and think the mods, admins, greeters, and chat/bloggers do a great job.

A happy Sunday morning to all!

Good idea, Anna. Maybe a good thing to move the Foodies, Survivor, and Flaws threads, too. Just a thought.

Great idea. It makes it a lot easier to find the on-going threads without searching through pages of other topics in the Newcomers forum.

I dont think so Trish. After the upgrade I think we are going to get visitor profile messages again.
