OK, so you expect people to know how this forum works from a technical point of view? Give me a break! Thanks for the explanation though. FYI, all the forums I know
except this one have sticky threads that really are sticky threads, i.e. the order in which they appear doesn't change with each new posted message, which is a lot more convenient.

My thought was, however, along the lines of how nice it would have been if someone had made threads 10 years ago for things such as "Award Show Appearances" and "TV Show Appearances" and each one had been posted chronologically with a link as it happened so that NOW someone could go back and view the history in order. Or even if we had had threads for "Crush TV Show Appearances" "Bounce TV Show Appearances" etc... just something more organized than here a thread, there a thread, everywhere a thread, thread.

We have the same goal and you would understand it if you weren't so biased.
Organization is 1 item per file, 1 file per item. On the internet as in the real world. I'm not psychorigid but I like to be able to find what I'm looking for in a snap. My worry is that when you put all R&O appearances/performances in one big thread or Jon's hum. awards events in one big thread for example it makes it impossible both for regular Jovitalkers and non-registered visitors to find one specific event because all the different events are mixed together on several pages and nobody's willing to go through dozens of pages to find one specific piece of information. Pay attention. The same info is posted by different people on the same page just because most people don't read others' messages before posting theirs. So don't expect people to care for all-purpose threads which appear even more messy than a thread dedicated to one and only event. It's not personal, it's just a question of logical thinking. Pay attention. It's not the first time I ask why people are posting current news items in old threads where they don't belong or, for example, R&O's gigs in the thread about their album but nobody cares of course so I gave up and decided to participate in this mess myself too 'cuz let's go crazy!
Oh well, never mind! I'm being too concerned, I know, once a teacher always a teacher I guess! You know the movie quote, "You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: those with loaded guns ... and those who dig. ... You dig."

Maybe your goal is to create as many threads as possible.

It's this ol' story about the pot calling the kettle black, right?!

So much for organization!

Do we NEED a NEW thread for every time Richie/Ori play at an event? The reason I put Richie/Ori Appearances in the "Tour Forum" is because most of their appearances have been PERFORMANCES. I didn't put it here to "hide" it or anything stupid like that. The reasoning was because their appearances together are mostly at shows where they're actually playing music. And, again, I liked the idea of keeping the history in one place. If you want me t move it to the General Forum, I can. It's really not a conspiracy. It's not lack of organization--it's an attempt AT organization.

Failed attempt then. Let me try again:
Quote:
1) General BJ Discussion
Discuss everything related to Bon Jovi (the band or individual members') activities here - latest news, rumors, songs, appearances,...
2) Tour Discussion
A forum for tour info, setlists, ticket info, discussing future and past concerts. Share your BJ concert experiences here!
|
Pay attention! It's 2015. There. is. no. current. tour.
e.g. a visitor looking for any BJ guy's
latest appearances won't visit the Tour Discussion section because it's not logic, plain and simple. (yeah! that's my inner Mr. Spock speaking!
)
But once again, never mind! This board is your toy, not mine, do whatever you want with it.
End of my digression.
