I just read "the other thread" again......twice......and did NOT see that mentioned anywhere.
Could you point out where it is, please ?
If I HAD seen that, THIS thread would never have been started.

I just went through the closed "Welcoming New Members" thread for the third time.......
And did not see this anywhere:
"you would know that those threads will no longer be indexed aka searchable & show up on the whats new link."
Prove me wrong. Tell us which post that was in.

The automated "new member welcome" posts do not show up in the new message scans anymore for existing users........and THAT was the complaint in the first place.
Given that the situation has now changed, I think this thread should be removed.

1. I liked being welcomed here when I first started posting. I'd prefer those welcomes to a software-generated one.
2. I didn't respond to all the auto-welcomes, since they were . . . well. . .automated. I prefer not interacting with robots.
3. I didn't like the auto-welcomes filling up the new posts listing. Thanks for removing them.
4. When a new member first posts, or when I first notice them on the forum, I'll try to welcome them personally.

Maybe I missed part of it or misunderstood.
I thought it said that USERS no longer were able to remove anything.
I assumed that ADMINS still could.

Because it no longer serves any useful purpose.
And it never did, really, because the person who started it didn't fully understand the situation.

SpyderLovers Sponsor
It's Christmas Day... A day we set aside to remember that Christ came to bring 'Peace, Good Will Towards Men.'
There are so many serious issues in this world today. It would be nice to return to the days when we came here to Spyderlovers for really great unity and comradery. To encourage one another in our new found joy of riding a Spyder. And support each other when our Spyder gave us a problem.
Lamont is having a tough go of it right now. He started and maintains this forum for us, at no cost to us. These negative threads have a way of getting back to Lamont. And believe me, it affects him. It is just the way he is made.
There are no perfect forums, anywhere. You just can't make everyone happy all of the time. There will always be differences of opinion, as it should be. But we can disagree without being disagreeable. An old cliche, yes. But never the less, good when practiced.
So, in honor of this day. The celebration of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ coming to earth and taking on the form and frailties of man to save him from his sin. And out of respect for Lamont and those who put so much time and effort into providing this very valuable, though imperfect, venue for us to enjoy. That we might have our own little 'Peace and Good Will Towards Each Other' right here on Spyderlovers.com. At least for today.
Who knows! It could take hold for the rest of the year!
Please, Everyone have a Merry and a Blessed Christmas!
