“’Tis never too late to repent”,
Said the preacher in his holy tent.
But he later confessed
That his real name was Jess
And he longed to go back to the Convent.[img]https://i.imgur.com/8RtqYec.jpg?1[/img]

That is actually hilarious, it really is.
I think you're suffering from short term memory loss.
What you're saying is that anyone can post whatever topic they choose wherever they choose regardless of whether there's a section for that topic already in existence elsewhere in the forum.Sighs Your complete lack of respect for other people is once again showing. Can you not disagree with someone without throwing insults? It's fine as it is more of a reflection on who you are than on who I am.
And yes, I am saying anyone can post any topic in any section they wish. Yes, it may be difficult for others to find but perhaps that is what they want. My question to you remains the same. Why should where I post my topics mean anything to you?? You post your topics where you wish and I will post my topics where I wish.
I fail to see any insult in anything I wrote above.. Just a statement that it was only very recently I was being blamed for all sorts of things that you, and others didn't agree with including postings that I had nothing to do with yet was considered somehow responsible for.
Yet again you attempt to turn a simple post into an argument. But I shan't rise to the bait.What and where you post is of absolutely no interest to me.
If you're happy with the forum remaining as it is that's your opinion to have. My only interest has ever been trying to respond to the many comments made by very many people that I've encouraged to use the forum that it's an out of date and cumbersome dinosaur and to attempt to do something to attract new participants.
Lots read…few post because of the jumbled nature of the place.mmmmmmmmMoorland walks

by Margaret Atwood
You begin this way:
this is your hand,
this is your eye,
this is a fish, blue and flat
on the paper, almost
the shape of an eye
This is your mouth, this is an O
or a moon, whichever
you like. This is yellow.
Outside the window
is the rain, green
because it is summer, and beyond that
the trees and then the world,
which is round and has only
the colors of these nine crayons.
This is the world, which is fuller
and more difficult to learn than I have said.
You are right to smudge it that way
with the red and then
the orange: the world burns.
Once you have learned these words
you will learn that there are more
words than you can ever learn.
The word hand floats above your hand
like a small cloud over a lake.
The word hand anchors
your hand to this table
your hand is a warm stone
I hold between two words.
This is your hand, these are my hands, this is the world,
which is round but not flat and has more colors
than we can see.
It begins, it has an end,
this is what you will
come back to, this is your hand.Buckethead

She received a lot of criticism for her weaving into the chorus a quote from Margaret Atwood,
a Canadian poet, novelist, literary critic, teacher, environmental activist, and inventor.
The vast majority of that criticism came, as expected, from one particular section of society.Quote from JessiCapri
But that's the point. If I post a topic, where I place it is where I want it to be. Just because someone else may think it could be/should be in a different spot why does their opinion matter more than mine, the original poster?? It matters little to me if everyone else can find it or not. It won't be missed if it has never been found. This is a public forum and everyone gets to post where they wish to post. I would never dare to tell you I think you posted your topic in the wrong spot. If a topic has been in the wrong spot for 3 years and many have been able to find it then others will be able to find it too. Respect the original topic poster. As to new users, there is a learning curve to everything including the game.[/colour]That is actually hilarious, it really is.
I think you're suffering from short term memory loss.
What you're saying is that anyone can post whatever topic they choose wherever they choose regardless of whether there's a section for that topic already in existence elsewhere in the forum.With all due respect, older posts are already archived as newer ones appear first in the list. The owner of the topic has picked it's position. If someone wishes to have a topic moved the owner of the topic should be contacted and approval given before it is moved. In order to keep clutter to a minimum duplicate topics should be avoided. If the original topic is older a new post makes it current.
I realise the OP chose where to post originally. That doesn't mean that a thread was posted in the right area of the forum.
As to contacting people…how long would your suggestion be to wait for a reply from someone that hasn't been active in the forum for 1, 2, 3 or more years…the same amount of time?
There are many, many threads that have had no activity in them for a very long time.
Why not create an Archive for posts (for example) that have seen no activity for over a year?
I know that a certain spectrum of people are resistant to change, that's always the way.
But I've heard a great many people say that they've been put off the forum by how cluttered with archaic threads it is and it simply not being new user friendly.First Aid Kit

A little work had already started on an idea to “modernise” and tidy up the forum.
Nothing was to be deleted, just rearranged and generally tidied up to make it much easier to navigate, especially for anyone new to the forum.
This has ceased, for various reasons, but is, in my opinion, something that is still very much needed.
No change to the way anything is posted, that would all remain the same. But placing threads/topics where they should be and an “archiving” of out of date/unused threads to allow people to be able to find what they're looking for without having to trawl through thread after thread without being able to see what they came for and “giving up” in frustration. -
