[quote name='dUSt' date='Oct 14 2004, 03:05 PM'] Because one of the most annoying things to me is message board communities that have so many different boards you can never remember where you posted.

And then realizing today that phatmass was one of those message boards. :lol: [/quote]
Although I like the Lame board as it keeps a lot of the inane stuff (which I sometimes take part in myself) from cluttering Open Mic, it seems to be the only board on your list that doesn't have a clearly defined subject mtter. If I understand you concers about forgetting where you posted I would think that the boards with particular purposes such as the Word, NFP, Prayer, Converts, and Vocation boards would be easy to remember where you posted. Whereas I can see confusion between the lame board and open mic.

Yeah, I defintely agree with BullanChinaShop there. The Lame board has absoutely no specfic category. What would probably be the best is change it to "The Fun Room" or something and then let the political topics stay in Open Mic.

but they really have nothing to do with each other...




Could the werd word and prayer room boards merge?

The NFP board is unique in that it's limited access...

Could the band boards merge? I know, I know...

Lame is fun, but not needed... Or maybe Lame and CA could merge... they're pretty much the same thing anyway, aren't they?

[quote name='Lil Red' date='Oct 14 2004, 03:20 PM'] and i hate to say it, but maybe merging the Word phorum with another would be the best. we just don't get enough traffic over there ~ and it's hard to get people to post there, too. :( as sad as that may be. [/quote]
Just as an aside, Lil Red... I don't really post there, but I do read there a LOT. And I really appreciate reading it... "Thanks" to you and cappie and everyone who posts there... :)

Merging the prayer and word rooms would work, but I do enjoy the no-replies policy in the prayer room-- it definately makes it seem quieter.

How, you might ask? I dont even know. :lol:

I voted the lame board- but I love all the boards...

not to get too off-topic, but i'm not trying to single you out... :) ....but i like to hear others' thoughts too, besides my own...even though i talk to myself constantly :lol:

i do think that combining the Word and the Prayer phorums together isn't such a bad idea...but i don't know how you would work keeping the prayers closed.

I agree- I think the prayer and word phorums would fit nicely together- if the prayers could stay closed. If people replied, even if only to tell the person that they were praying, it would bump the thread, and some might not get seen- ever! I dont know if the word boards would do the same.

Well, I think I've confused myself enough for one post. :lol:

God Bless,

I actually think The Word board might be better off as a sub-category in the "Catholic Apologetics" board. I could the rename the topic to "The Word and Apologetics". So, the Word board would continue to exist as it's own board, just living as a sub-category instead...

What do y'all think of that idea?

YEAH you tell em Lil Red! :) we all go to Sunday Mass.. it would be great to get some more thoughts on Scripture--what strikes you? homeschoolmom has posted a few times before but some peeps NEVER have.

back on topic-----

i think if it come down to it ...shudder... the Word and Prayer phorum could be merged---the prayer section as a no replies subsection.

Just a thought,

Merge the CA and uber lame board. Though CA has some "real" threads, most of those who fit the cretia post on "real" threads in Open Mic and in the Lame board. Those two seem realted.
