With all the folders & subfolders though, New Messages is a little less organized. Oh well- it's still my favorite. Is there a way that the reading area threads can be scooted around so that they are above Games in New Messages? I don't look at most of the games and it's a ton to scroll past and I bet a lot of people don't scroll down far enough to see that there's more once you get past all that.

Mocha, what decorating area?

Kaili, we will be reordering those threads today. Great suggestion. The Games will soon appear at the bottom of the new messages list.

If someone can think of a creative name for all the "right now" and "facts about you" threads that fits what they are, we will group them together.

Who, it would be best at this point to just to start a thread actually called "Dear Abby" or something similar if you would like a thread with that continual theme.

Thanks!!

To add to Mygetaway's suggestion for a subgroup, can you also add the "This or That" there? Those seem to be the threads that you can do a quick stopover in...

Sorry for any confusion, Mocha, but we were only re-arranging things in the General Discussions and Community Corner.

Costa, MGA, if you guys can think of a catchy name, we'll be glad to relocate those threads in one subtopic together.

Lumbele, that was the variation of the name choices we considered...including "Juju and Draheid's Jibberish Jungle"

Actually Mod...I did start Dear Abby thread quite a while back. But it archived into oblivion when someone else started the Advice/Suggestions thread. I even looked into the current thread to make sure I wasn't all wet about the previous varying topics that had gone on in the thread before I decided to pipe up last night. I take it once a thread is relocated somewhere, its a huge hassle to move it again? No biggie to start another thread I guess. I was just thinking of the person who might look into the archives of the thread, and see someone talking about how do they tactfully let someone know they've been calling them by the wrong name for months...and wonder what the heck that had to do with shopping!

As far as the suggestions of the stuff like Scruples, Right Now, A Fact or Two, This or That, Humorscopes......Costa said something about "quick stopovers." So maybe a folder called something like "TVCH Daily Stopovers." Like I said, I'm not nearly as clever as you are in the catchy name business.

How about a folder for the Dumb Question, new Dear Abby, Rant and Gripe threads. I don't have a catchy phrase yet though.

Jokes could go in Entertainment.

Hair could go in Health. Maybe rename Health & Beauty.

Things exclusive to TVCH and its posters, like Moon and Cowboy's Wedding, What do you Drive, Have You Met Other Posters From TVCH, and TVCH Real Life Couples could go in a folder together too.

I guess I start looking at it like, I'm trying to put all the free standing threads somewhere. And I see that's too complicated a task.

I think its a great idea, so people with slower connections can navagate easier. Visually, when I open GD now, I see a bit of a cluttered look with subfolders getting intermingled with the free standing threads depending on what is getting bumped up. I'm not sure there's an easy solution to it, so its just something I have to get used to.

Who, your thread being archived is exactly why we have done the reorganization - to prevent that from happening as often.

From what you are describing, a new thread with a better title might clarify the purpose of the thread and avoid any confusion about what it is advice about (i.e. it isn't a buyer advice thread). So feel free to start another one as you see fit.

I think "daily stopovers" is a great idea for a name. We'll get that setup sometime today.

It will be an adjustment to get used to the groupings mixed in with the threads, but I'm sure we'll all get used to it in time!

I love what you've done with the place!

My only suggestion would be that "Write a Caption for This Picture" and "Stupid Things You've Done" could go in the entertainment section.

Thanks Admin and Mods for always making this the best place to be!

Dra...the chart is great and it will help. I was posting in the Right Now thread and well, I was just playing with you...by calling Free Expression "Federal Express"...

I know all this facelifting must be quite a job for you and the others, and I do appreciate all that you guys continue to do around this super duper place! Thanks again!!
