Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Boards should have a forum of the week

    Might be very interesting and get some traffic to less visited forums on boards, like for example one week it could be Rock & Metal and the next week Mustard. Might help a load of folks discover new areas they didn't know existed, or interesting topics that they wouldn't have gone looking for on their own. :D

    What do you think?

    Maybe next week it could be the Feedback forum?

    Can only last so long until we are at the dreaded "Bus Enthusiasts" forum. It smells like wee and loneliness in there.

    My nomination is the "Sheep" subforum.

    For a site like Reddit, which has tens of thousands of sub-reddits and new ones added daily, it makes sense.

    Boards is too small for it imo.

    I think that's a great idea.

    This could attract interest in some of the more obtuse/less well known forums.

    We could combine the Sheep forum with the Mustard forum for some recipies ;)

    Don't combine Sheep with Rock & Metal, the sheep wouldn't like what happens at a Gorgoroth concert :p

    Or better yet they could have a system where the most thanked post of the day in all of boards.ie is highlighted and everyone can see it....oh or better yet boards.ie could like rank posts by the amount of thanks they received on a given day. That would be cool.

    :rolleyes:
