I added this at the end of the last thread, but just realized I should have put it in this thread in case anyone has any questions. Here's the post:

A note to some of the LOG members:

We've noticed a lot of folks in these threads tend to reply to a huge amount of posts, creating a new post each time for it and sometimes leading to strings of posts by the same users that last nearly a full page. It's causing a few issues in that it's effectively bumping these threads far too often, and upping the post count very quickly (there are currently more posts in the LOG threads than posts in the entire history of the Live Sound forum).

It would be very helpful if everyone could start utilizing the Multi Quote function if they plan on quoting/replying more than two posts at a time. For anyone that hasn't used it, it works by clicking on the little tab to the right of the "Quote" button on every post you wish to quote/reply to, and then click on the "Post Reply" button. All of the posts you quoted will then be in one post rather than long strings of replies.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Ah, cool--I was going to link your last post, Bryan. This is a good idea. I think it'll make the threads move slower and they'll be easier to follow.

Given the current level of activity in the LOG threads, and the resultant downsides to other forum users, wouldn't it make sense for the LOG to have it's own subforum ? That would deal with the issues above wouldn't it ?

Do you really think so ? I think they'll be harder to follow. It's tough enough to follow the sub-threads that make up this thread as it is.

Just as an example, occasionally we get questions posted here that are answered days later, sometimes in a subsequent continuation thread. Imagine how hard it will be to find the answer to your question if you additionally have to find your answer as reply no.9 in a post that's a 15-part multi-quote.

I sincerely think that the only thing that will make these conversations more navigable is a sub-forum. And it sounds like that's going to be more convenient for non-LOG forum users too, if I'm not mistaken.
