As this website continues to grow I find it increasingly hard to sort through all of the new topics. I didn't look at the HAMB all day today and when I sat down to read through the new posts, I had 7 pages to go through. That's ridiculous. If we had different categories of forums to post under we could more easily keep things straight. Just a thought. I'm getting more and more frustrated.
If people would read first instead of posting, perhaps folks wouldn't have to weed through some of the duplicate posts http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=204704
If you mean difficult to keep up with and not organized, then things are fine. Ladycrusr, It must have taken you a while to search for that and insert a cute smiley. When you could have just ignored the post.
Didn't take me long at all, it was on the first page in this exact section. Why was it on the first page??? Cuz someone asks this exact same question about once every week. The HAMB is already broken down into 12 sections....thats 11 more then a couple of years ago.
A seasoned Hamber can perform a search, insert a hyper-link AND click on a smiley face in just under a minute. :0 In the day and age of lazy people who expect everyone else to make their lives easier the HAMB is a hold out. Difficult to keep up with and not organized? Perhaps you haven't learned to use the tools at your disposal? Subscriptions and searches do wonders. We Mods manage to keep up and we check nearly every post. I find it interesting that the people who have been here for a long, long time have no problem with the way it's setup but the newer members want to homogenize it. Lemmings.
If you look at other message boards like VWVORTEX for example, that site is so huge and broken down into so many different sections you might never get to see what else is going on, or meet new people. Its way easier to just read one area.
