You will notice that this part of the board is in the process of getting a makeover. In recent months as our membership and activity have continued to increase, the general discussions area has grown to a large number of threads. Rather than delete great threads, we have decided to group them according to topic.

We expect that this will take some getting used to, however, locating threads should be much easier in the long run.

As we make these changes tonight, please let us know of any threads that we missed.

Got it, Melfie :-)

Pamy, no adjustments to favorites since we are not adding a new part of the board.

Glad to get positive feedback about this. We've been discussing options for a while

I think it's gonna take a teensy bit of getting used to, but I think I'll like it. At least, so far, I love the title of Hairball Haven! (Although, my little Costa man might refute the word "hairball." HE claims he NEVER hacks up any of THOSE nasty things! <snark>)

Okay - the majority of the reorganization is almost done. Here are some highlights:

1. The Community Corner has been phased out and will be deleted soon. All threads in that area have been (or will soon be) relocated. Please adjust any bookmarks accordingly.

2. The following threads have been moved to the members section of the board for privacy reasons:
  • Lurker Adoption
  • Birthday List
  • What does your Screen name mean?
  • Where is everyone from?
  • My Portal to TVCH
  • Who We Are Photos

It is a great way to get to know other TVCH members. The direct link is Getting to Know You



3. Some of the threads may be moved and re-worked in the coming days and weeks as we test out how the organization is working.

4. You can request subtopics within threads. One example would be in the Hairball Haven. The "Dogs" thread can be split to include a place for the JRT fans, etc. In addition, the sports thread can be divided into "Basketball", "Hockey", "Olympics" as requested.

Please let us know how this is working for you. While we will not succeed in making everyone happy, we will do our best to ensure that things are working as best they can.

Thank you for your patience,
TVCH Moderators

Thanks, Mods -- but are you saying us JRT fans tried to monopolize the Dogs thread?!

(Just kidding; I'm making fun of myself, because I'm one of those crazy JRT lovers)

I think I see a thing or two already, but I'll hold off and give you chance.

In the mean time, where is the best place to post if we see a tweaking that needs...umm...tweaking?

I think it will be great. Just gets me a bit dizzy to start with to try and figure out what thread must have gone where.

ok....who just said, "you've always been a bit dizzy Who!"

I love the "Hairball Haven", whoever thought this title up deserves an emmy.

Smoking is in the Health Corner

We'll do a Career Group (a play off of Peer Group - very clever, Dipo!) shortly.

Who, your suggestions can go here.

Ummm...ok. Well, the only thing I noticed right off the top was under the Buyer's Banter. The Advice/Suggestions thread was only about buying things just recently. In past conversations, its covered all sorts of Advice (jobs, anger management, etc). I see it as more of a Dear Abby type of thread.

I see that one and the Dumb Question thread going into a sub folder of some sort. But I'm not nearly as clever as y'all are in the naming of these! Maybe just name the Help Desk thread to include non-technical things?

I am a bit concerned for the Mods though. At least for the start, this opens a lot of opportunity for threads to be started in a sub folder that fits better in another. I hope you aren't spending all your time moving threads around! Maybe you need to do some recruiting! There's definetly going to be a need for extra Mod-Hugging before this all settles down!

What about a subgroup for the Right Now, Facts and Scruples threads? These all seem to be threads we love to read/answer every day. (Usually) Just wondering.. Maybe like Dear Diary or something...lol

I like it. I found "General Discussions" to be really slow to load sometimes and, now, so far, it isn't. I did notice my stuff is now in the cheap seats, which is a lot better than "Doghouse" where I expected to find it.

You all will leave the decorating area as it is right? I do like the fact that the photo threads are in a private area though.
