Members Riobard Posted April 12, 2021 Members Posted April 12, 2021 I don’t grasp why there are two places to start topics on Latin American Men & Destinations. It seems that posters randomly select either the first one in order of display (ie, the one at the top with currently 67 posts), or the longer section below it, to start new topics and readers must look in two places for what is new. Are they not both member-only? Apologies if a rationale was provided earlier and I missed it. Quote
Members Riobard Posted April 12, 2021 Author Members Posted April 12, 2021 Furthermore, I just started this topic in the heading at the top that designated ‘member only’, but it landed down here below the pinned topics! What gives? [I got it into the intended location on the second try. But you can see the dilemma. In which of the two sections is a new topic supposed to be entered?] Quote

But why a sub-forum that is not thematically distinct from the overall section category?] Quote
TotallyOz Posted April 13, 2021 Posted April 13, 2021 I'll try to answer the best I can. There are two forums as I wanted one for general public without XXX images. The other one is for members only. That was the goal. But, the one we have has many XXX images in it and it is very time consuming to go through each thread to see if it should be labeled XXX. Currently, both forums are viewable by logged in members only with 10 or more posts. As for the pinned topics, all posts will always go below those. They are pinned which means they are pinned above all other posts. Not sure if that answers your question or not. Quote
Members Riobard Posted April 13, 2021 Author Members Posted April 13, 2021 I only mentioned pinned topics to guide you to see where my new unpinned topic landed in sequence, but not in the place I wanted. I think you are saying that the one forum intended to be open without membership is now restricted and perhaps the content would be lost if you removed it ... not being able to transfer the threads posted to date in a way to integrate the two into one LatAm option.
