lookinforwalleye Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 or give them their own board altogether! LOL joking joking G good idea! Not kidding!!
tjsa Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 Well by going fishing Drew and not sitting at the keyboard ! Ummmhhh..................wouldn't that negate 90% of your posts Wayne????????????? :lol:
jdmls Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 How would you ever get 20-30 posts if you could never reply to a topic. I believe he means new contributing posts !!!
Jason Vernooy Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 Just add a rant section to the boards.....oops..not up to 20 posts yet. sorry lol
Maverick Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) I think it would be a good idea because unless you check back every 20 minutes you can easily lose a thread with all the new posts as the community grows. General - Non-Fishing - Fishing Fishing Trips / Reports Boats General Fishing Questions / Comments Any takers?? Edited April 16, 2008 by Maverick
irishfield Posted April 16, 2008 Author Report Posted April 16, 2008 Read the original post again Maverick.
LundGuy Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 If both sections are popular then it won't matter, because the posts will go fast in both. It doesn't take much time or effort to click the mouse and scroll to find your favorite posts. If you click new posts you will get rid of anything old if you don't wish to follow them.
Maverick Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 Read the original post again Maverick. Everyone was so off topic, I thought I would go along with them!
Bernie Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) I think part of what makes this board successful IS the fast activity. Because new posts and replys come fast you always (well almost always) have new stuff to read. Other boards have topics split up so bad it becomes boring so you just have a quick look and your gone. I love the way its set up here. There would be some minor changes I would do but is really quite good in my opinion. Even the Idiots make it fun to read.......Not talking about you Gerritt Edited April 16, 2008 by Bernie
Greencoachdog Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 I know this comes up at least 5 times a year.... with someone suggesting such a thing..... But I'm thinking not seperate fishing and non fishing sections, But..How about a seperate section for most everything and another section for steelheading threads ! Well, I gotta agree with ya Wayne!... is there anyway we can have the Steelhead section posted on the camping latrine wall @ Lakair???
Greencoachdog Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 Ummmhhh..................wouldn't that negate 90% of your posts Wayne????????????? :lol: Day-Yum!!!... dunno if I'd slam a latrine door that hard!!!... well done tom!
kennyman Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 I vote to do whatever Wayne says. Leave it as is.
douG Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 I'm all for it. Full speed ahead and dang the tuxedos.
solopaddler Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 I believe he means new contributing posts !!! That's exactly what I meant.
SlowPoke Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 How would you ever get 20-30 posts if you could never reply to a topic. Easy man! Import a bunch of boats and sell 'em on OFC!! I wouldn't restrict reply privlidges but I wouldn't mind seeing a minimum of 20 posts before posting in the classifieds. I also like the all-in-one feel of this board. I tend to stumble across threads I wouldn't normally seek out had they been in other categories. -Brian
Terry Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 ok I thought this thread was a joke..humor........a funny comment on how steelhead threads go bad but it seems many took it to be something else..or I read it wrong
Dano Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) I like it Wayne, but I would call them the indigenous species forum and the invasive species forum. You got it right Terry..... Edited April 16, 2008 by Dano

John Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 ok I thought this thread was a joke..humor........a funny comment on how steelhead threads go bad but it seems many took it to be something else..or I read it wrong My take on it too. Apologies Wayne......
pigeonfisher Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 where would we talk about beer? If it was american beer, which is like water, it could go in the steelhead forum. It creates the same amount of pissing!
JEREMY Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 Well sais pigeonfisher.I am still laughing.
BillM Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 An Off-Topic subsection not related to anything fishing would be a good idea.

It creates the same amount of pissing! LOL Steve ! and Yes Terry it was an attempt at humour (well sort of.. I'm actually kinda serious) to get the crew through 'till ice is out enough to get the rigs out up here. I just find it odd that for the last month or more we've had daily joiners that do nothing but flame steehead posts. There's a message in there somewhere...
kennyman Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 I know this comes up at least 5 times a year.... with someone suggesting such a thing..... But I'm thinking not seperate fishing and non fishing sections, But..How about a seperate section for most everything and another section for steelheading threads ! Where I went wrong was the original thread Wayne posted has a small line on the top and then far below (unlike the version above) the original thought where a signature usual is he finishes his point. I ignored the bottom as if it were a signature and somehow filtered or disregarded it automatically. I guess you're so used to seeing signatures in that position and I'll read a persons once and then disregard it for a few days, sometimes checking to see if they've changed. Lately it's more the "team" logos, but before it was advertising alot of the time. You just subconciously tune them out. So after all that jibber jabber, what I'm saying is that maybe that's what alot of us here did. Or at least that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
