Can I just say WOW!?!?!? You guys are soooo good. This is great. We can provide a link to THIS thread for people looking for answers to almost any question.

Thanks Ann Louise, Lsue and ALL of y'all!

What a blessing you are.
*CLINK*!!! Cranwater toasts, all around!

(Pssst! Love you, love you, love you!) [:X]

Thanks Sarah!!!

Once I started researching all the hiddden "stickies," I was amazed at the wealth of "lost treasures" I found right in front of my eyes!

I cannot stress how important it is that we start gaining control over repetitive posts! As you know, in any given week, the same subjects are brought up again and again which are actually bogging down our poor search engine, our beloved moderators and veterans as well as lengthening an already too large topic page!

EVERYONE CAN HELP!

For example... the next time you see a post asking what the difference is between milled flax seed and flax meal, (or a question equally as repetitive) instead of typing out the answer for the umpteenth time, (sigh) hopefully you will:

-strongly encourage the reading of the books (first and foremost!)

-provide specific links from The Library that will assist with Forum navigation as well as provide points of program clarification

-encourage regular use of the search engine

Naturally, there will be many questions that cannot be answered this easily...these we are more than happy to try to help with! But I promise, the majority of questions that get posted have been asked over and over and over again...this is where we'd love EVERYONE's help! If we all work together, I am confident we can really start to make The Forum the absolute BEST it's ever been!

Thanks for your your continued support, patience and understanding!

Aye aye, Skipper!

We're well equipped to proceed as planned. I'm going to copy that LIBRARY link onto a sticky (you know, computer desktop thingie [:I]) and then I can paste it into sooo many answers.

EXCELLENT, MATEY!!

Ya know...practicing a bit of "tough love" around here will help turn out a whole generation of better educated and more self reliant Fat Flushers and Fast Trackers!

SEE...EVERYBODY WINS!!!!

don't know what happened to my post but I think this is absolutely excellent and the hard work it must have taken is not going un-noticed. Way to go !!!

Linda - I just wanted to let you know one of the links in the Forum Library is broken, the one to the thread "Those Nasty Evening Cravings". When I clicked on it, it took me to a page where I could have edited the first post if I had the access.

I looove the library, its so much help! Thanks!!

LSue · 01-24-2007, 07:44 PM
