new section please

[bednobs]

hi ed is it possible to have a "daily mail numbers" section? I keep seeing posts all over the flipping site and i'm fed up with them!!!!

[factor-fiction]

I found them a little irritating last week but I think the competition has finished now. Many posts went in Gaming but I don't go in there so didn't mind too much, until they appeared in Q&P too. I suppose from the Ed's point of view it was good as it seemed to attract a lot of new users. In the main these users wouldn't have known about the AB search facility.

[vivandorron]

There are already too many sections... perhaps one less with another added for complaints about AB would be useful.:-) :-)

[boxtops]

LOL ron, if you have complaints you should email the Ed, not start a new section!

[craft1948]

So you want a section to yourself then Ron...............

[boxtops]

we could just call it "Ron's Bits"

[vivandorron]

Hi boxy... I do love it when you respond to my nonsense and always appreciate your comments when I am being serious.

Ron.

[DTCwordfan]

or "Ron's Tits and Bits"

[boxtops]

:-)

[vivandorron]

Could be craft but, as suggested by boxtops is inappropriate, unless she has mistyped, because I would want it to be Ron's Bites. :-)

Ron.

[vivandorron]

PS.. DT I do try to keep abreast of things. :-)

Ron.

[boxtops]

No typo, ron :-)

[boxtops]

... although since your posts are often about computery things, it could be "Ron's Bytes"....

[DTCwordfan]

looks like you and the Ed may have your hands full then, Ron!

[vivandorron]

What further can I compute on this. Shall we leave it to see what the Ed's feelings are on sensitive items.

Ron.

[boxtops]

As someone said earlier today, Ed's Bits are probably rather chilly at the moment, sitting out there in the rockery....

[HowardKennitby]

The problem is not too many or too few sections; it is the fact that the whole topic structure is odd and so many people, especially when new to the site, post in the wrong place.

[boxtops]

...partly, as we've said before, because the sub-topics are only available if you click on a topic heading, or the Red Topic at the top of the list. Nobody tells you that.

[vivandorron]

In all seriousness, perhaps all new members should be given some form of a 'welcome pack' with all the rules and regulations clearly laid out. In fact I would appreciate such a pack as a 'download' because there are lots of rules and regs ; some of which I may even be unaware.

Ron.

If only everybody else could post their questions in the correct section..

I get fed up with the crossword posters also quizzes and puzzles - they completely overwhelm the site at certain times of the day and push other subjects off The Latest Posts column far too quick before anyone sees them.
