Could I moderate one more board? I would like to be able to edit, direct and delete on the other topics board. The ongoing chain stories there require some editing. If not, maybe move them to a creative writing board that I could run. I don't ask for much ;D That and some stars, and that's all I need.

If you do create another board for creative writing, I'd like to call it "Leave it Open" 'We let the weirdness in.' Description: Submit your lyrics poems and stories here. Also participate in group writing projects and discussions.

Hey Al!
What is it exactly is the type of things you want to edit, just out of curiosity?

Also participate in group writing projects and discussions. I second this... I think Al has some great ideas here. I think he'd like to organize the sort of scattered contributions to the creative writing sections. If they take off, they may be easier to follow and add to there. And the name of the board is great!

Hey Al! What is it exactly is the type of things you want to edit, just out of curiosity? Mostly just an errant post here or there without troubling you. For example, on the ongoing stories, I would prefer that they read straight through like a book. I would not edit anybody's comment's though. Mainly the creative writing stuff would just be fun for me on one board. It would still be wide-open for other people's input.

I'm game for the new board for you Al. One thing I'm getting a bit concerned about however is the amount of boards on the forum. It could also be off-putting for visitors thinking it's too complicated or too much at a first glance.
Is there any boards you's think aren't all that relevant and would be happy to remove?

It could also be off-putting for visitors thinking it's too complicated or too much at a first glance. I thought about that. It would be great if we had archives. But, maybe we could move slow moving boards to the bottom. Or delete some trivial content by vote or consensus. However, I like all the variety and diversity. Our core group is my first concern, The fact that we've got something for everybody is probably more of a plus than on most boards. As we get more diverse, then we'll get more members with new ideas. I don't think we've ever strayed though, from Kate Bush being the centerpiece. And that is as it should be. How she has influenced us and others is what the rest of the topics seem to be concerned with. Not me, but maybe do a long term poll.

Thanks Lori, You work fast! I already see two of the threads moved to the new board. Only 'CCW Another Lifetime and Seasonal Haiku are the 2 left I'd like to have there. Also, we really don't have more to sift through this way. It's just better organized.
