Are there enough ppl here with decent self esteem to know what to post? But maybe .. since there are more and more members who are "tooting their own kudo horn" in the Kudo and Affirmation forum. And many ppl also start a new thread to recognize a member who has been "kudo'd" in the past... when I thought I read about how to do a search and pull the thread and add to it??? sigh
Good luck on this one too. I still think "we" need to divide up the General area some more, I hadn't been around for nearly a week and there are like over 1000 posts there alone????? Forget it. I'm having all posts marked as read, and moving on. ("we" as if we really had anything to do about these matters!)
And also, remember the forum we thought would be good: NO ANSWER REQUIRED one? Where we could just post, well, like your quotes that don't require a reply, or when someone is going to be away and wanted others to know, or a rant where the member knows it's a rant and really doesn't want a reply?
And what we need, imo, is a forum for ALL new members to post their original posts... until they do feel comfortable about "where" to post "this." This way we know to go there to welcome the newbies, and the mods can move the posts as needed (thus helping to teach which forums we have and where to put the posts>
Not necessarily for them to stay there and habitate, but where they are helped out into the rest of the site.
These all would help with the Mental HEALTH aspect of the site, yep.
