I agree with you. I post and someone comes after me to dump my thread somewhere else and it can not be found.

What's up with these MODs or Admins..


There are two methods of finding it moderatly easily: from the redirect link (which admittedly has the misfortune of being timestamped at the original post time, rather than the time it was moved), or to look under your profile and "view all posts" if it doesn't show up in the shortened list.

 

The forum would become entirely unwieldy if we did not organize the posts into a heirarchical fashion. and we do have a method to our madness as to what goes where and it's generally not too awkward.

 

What is awkward is people who simply post XYZ in some generalized spot, like CC's, such that people can't easily find CC-oriented material.  We've had that before, and as such we simply move the posts.

 

It's not a perfect system to be certain, but to pull a lesson out of corporate America, it's fine to complain, but offer a solution too.

 

ETA: the timestamping issue is admittedly annoying and lame; I put a request into the Lithium folks to see if they can timestamp to when we move the thread, i.e. current time, rather than original post time which in a busy forum like CC's can get moved back pages and become more easily lost.

Re: MERGING NASA THREADS

I will be glad when the NASA wave is over.  Not sure what the lure is anyways.  Big CL maybe, but below average reward structure makes this an easy one to pass up.

One thing I remember for sure.  Sept 25th, was a very unique day at myfico forums. NASA CU generated Excitement, Entrainment, Frustration and Joy.

 

I understand, how hard it was to manage the forums on that day.

 

Thanks
