    Freaking brilliant!!

    In this case, he was very helpful. Thanks to him I am now seeing the following:

    "This message is hidden because Germ is on your ignore list. "

    SWEET! The quality and value of posts just increased . I'll give this a test drive to see how it pans out but I'm liking it. :lol:

    If there is any way to display ongoing multiple threads about the same thing it would be nice to post at the top. I'm not sure how this would be done, but I think the admin could probably figure out a variation. This would (hopefully) slow the abundance of recurring threads and we all know which ones those are. When I first joined three seasons ago, I will admit I had posted threads that could have been prevented with a simple search through the forums. Since then, I have learned a ton and I feel like I am a much better hunter, and more knowledgeable on the technical side of things and most of that is using this forum the same way a google search is done when I have a question.

    Open all of the pulled/deleted threads as Read only so that members can see why it was pulled/deleted, or better yet open the thread that got someone banned. I've only paid attention to a couple of post that we pulled and they were very interesting.

    To serve as a warning to others of course.

    The only time a thread is permanently deleted or moved is if it contains a lot of profanity, spam or bashing/misinformation about a product or company. I will say in the 4+ years in existance of this place there's probably only been 4 or 5 of these. 99% of the time when a thread gets locked it remains in the open for people to read it, until it falls off the first page for that particular forum. In that case, it's always accessible via the Search.

    I love this site. It's my only "very active" site. don't change it. It's fine. Sure there are a few ads, and new people come and go. yeah some lefties post here but RC is the other side.

    If you go and start adding a bunch of stuff it will take forever to load... (try going to ls1tech.com, so frustrating)

    Keep it, it's fine. We're all a nice happy little community and let's just leave it like that.

    Hos about a spot for Outdoor Christian Devotionals. Many would be able to post there and those who don't want to go there could stay away or read without complaining about the topic.
