Little BabyDoll Christine Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Not that there is anything wrong with them, Just that I am personally not interested. Is there any way that I can have selected forums not show up when I press "new content"? I am really not interested in "Story Time" and "Roleplay" Link to comment
ErinM Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Just skip over the stuff from those forums. Seems pretty easy to me. *shrugs* I don't use the 'new content' button, so I don't ever see anything in the forums I don't look at. Link to comment
Necare Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 You actually create a post with this immensely insignificant topic?!! Talk about a non-issue! Are you writing this because of a much needed distraction from watching the paint dry, or? The mind boggles. 1 Link to comment
Guest NaughtyAshes Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Haha, I was actually wondering the same thing. I'm not particularly interested in seeing the prolifically updated role-play forums when i click new content either. Link to comment
PrincessDragonette Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Actually I'm not interested in Roleplay or Story Time either, and as one of those that uses the "new content" feature, it can be very mildly.... I don't know, not irritating, it doesn't rate that high, maybe a nuisance? I mean, it isn't a huge deal, I just ignore those threads in the list. Link to comment
Bettypooh Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 I just don't look at the new content forums I'm not interested in I'm not interested in roleplay or stories either, but others obviously are. I just look at it as being a sign of good health for the website- at least people are onboard somewhere Bettypooh Link to comment
Sophie ♥ Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 You actually create a post with this immensely insignificant topic?!! Talk about a non-issue! Are you writing this because of a much needed distraction from watching the paint dry, or? The mind boggles. On the contrary, this concept also appeals to me. Typically I don't like having to see all the updated roleplays, but I do like Story Time. I rarely read stories on the boards, but every once in a while I'll see a new story in New Content and like the title or be curious and they end up being good stories. Partly, I feel every post should go noticed... and that they should all appear in one area... but the other part of me thinks roleplays are a different kind of story once they hit over a page. -Sophie Link to comment
Little BabyDoll Christine Posted July 1, 2010 Author Share Posted July 1, 2010 To mya way of thinking "New Content" is "quick look". So I would tailor it, if possible, to the things of most interest to me. then I can come back around to the full forum set for the long haul Link to comment
Sophie ♥ Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 There are, on average, only perhaps... 94 items a day that are "new" though. So... that's only like four pages. I don't feel that it's too much. But I still agree on a way to choose what you get updates on. -Sophie Link to comment

It's not about the writers, even if [famous author] were writing them I wouldn't be interested. The kind of reading that interests me, well, diapers wouldn't really have a place, at most a passing acknowledgement that a character was wearing them. And you're right, at least they're active and that means people are active. Looking past them isn't difficult and I don't mind doing it. But, since there is little chance of there ever being a thread that I want to see in those forums, it might be convenient if they never popped up. Link to comment
Sophie ♥ Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Well. Speaking as a bias party.... As a writer, I like that when I post a story or a chapter or SOMETHING everyone has an equal oportunity to notice without having to click the Story forum... You know, after I put all my work into that? As for roleplays, they should be on that front page too to help people get involved in them. -Sophie Link to comment

I don't read stuff in the mystery genre, not because I think it's crap, but because it doesn't interest me. Me not wanting to read the Story Time forum is not a judgement of you as a writer, or even of the genre itself, just a matter of personal preference. Having the Story Time threads pop up will in no way encourage me to click on them. I know people write them, I'm sure some of those people are fantastic writers, I just don't have a desire to read those stories. I will say, that people that DO want to read the stories or the roleplay, will want it to show up when they click "new content" and that's why I say I don't mind just skimming over it like Bettypooh suggested.
