Pinning Good threads idea.
Hey i was just thinking last night that it would be nice if some of the better threads with good advice and description could be pinned up the top or maybe you could have a room specially for a selection of really good threads. It is just an idea and it saves hunting through all the threads.
It would mainly be for new comers who are after a quick bit of information about sa. People experiences, symptoms etc. I hope i have explained this well. |

You have explained it very Freespirit
I'm sure Anne will get back to you on what she thinks about the idea. |

Well, that last post won't do much to help newcomers, which was the point of Freespirit's thread.

Re: Pinning Good threads idea.
I think it's a good idea. Infact I've suggested that people's threads should be pinned before, there was some good ones with SA advice, particuarly useful for newcomers. Never happened though.
The room's a better idea, any threads wasting away then they can get moved into the funky new useful thread room. If anyone complains they haven't got anything in there, then they'll just have to pull their fingers out of their behinds and write down something of worth. Seriously, so much good stuff goes to waste in here, never to be seen again. Look at some of the stuff innerspace has written. Threads by people like Nicabcuk (all gone now, sadly), even the likes of Jack and Kev have probably written some useful stuff, believe it or not. All defunct. You can't really say that people are going to get their knickers in a twist about this making it not a good idea. Let's be honest, if you're going to get your knickers in a twist about it you need to toughen up a bit. That's support! Or, you could get yourself along to SAS where they're now hosting articles submitted by members... |

And don't worry good idea/bad idea, I was merely mentioning for the eyes of any 'objectors' who come in with their darned negative attitudes. |

Re: Pinning Good threads idea.
Pinned threads would get messy, but a separate archived room did work on the old board. The problem was the time needed to sort through old threads and move them to the archive. I did it myself for a long time, but no longer have the time. Maybe we can think of a way for everyone to help sort through the old threads and get them moved to a common FAQ type subforum. My feeling though is that it should be an archive (no new posts) as regulars won't check it very often.

Re: Pinning Good threads idea.
I think sorting through the olds threads would be near impossible by now. But I do feel a new room would be worthy of some good articles, not just bits and bobs of random advice, but some good decent stuff that is worth having a new room for. There's people capable of writing, you don't need to have posting permissionss, but any decent thread that pops up you just move it into there. And people will check it if it's worth checking out. May not be a regular thing for most people, but when they come across that moment of inspiration when they want to do something about their SA, there it is, the golden advice....
