Guard dad Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 Caped - you and I met a few years ago at the Sam's gas pumps, if memory serves. I'm sure you know I'm one of the admins at another forum, but since we've chosen not pursue a commercial venture at this time, we're not in competition with you.I have always taken you as being a good guy, so I'll wish you well on your new venture. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Blunt Trauma Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 I have know evidence what so ever that this is true. And there is absolutely no reason to believe it. But I heard he became an Uber driver. And last anybody heard a rich drunk guy has hired him to drive to California. He was gonna check in from the road. Ought to be a hell of a story.

But I'll be 69 this coming October and, while I have no concerning health issues, when Caped Crusader came to me with his plan; it answered some critical questions I had regarding the site. Hey, this is just the best way forward and I'm happy to help it along. Gpatton I have know evidence what so ever that this is true. And there is absolutely no reason to believe it.

Blunt Trauma Posted July 4, 2019 Report Share Posted July 4, 2019 Feel free to run with it. This could turn in to that book you know is inside you. I have a few ideas about a side trip you'd take to San Francisco. It goes into a short To Wong Foo esk chapter from there. Until Seattle that is. One word......grunge. Bringing it back and touring your way back across the country. So many ideas. Link to post Share on other sites

Deputy Barney Fife Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 A few very negative posts were set invisible in this thread. If you want to be a Negative Nellie or just bash the site and moderation, don't. It won't be tolerated. There is enough negativity on the 24/7 news channels and we won't tolerate mimicking that here. One poster brought politics into this thread and that will no longer be acceptable either. Link to post Share on other sites
cptlo306 Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 I'll try to be positive in this post.... The first step in fixing any problem is admitting that there is a problem. Paulding.com has a problem. The posting activity has decreased dramatically over the last few years. That's the problem. This isn't a secret. All one has to do is look at all the forums with no new posts in years to see the lack of active threads. There are different viewpoints on the reasons for this decline but there doesn't appear to be any cold hard proof that one viewpoint is right. The way to find the root cause of the problem is to get feedback from people that are affected by the problem. Ignoring or hiding feedback that isn't positive just makes the problem worse. Can paulding.com get back to it's former glory days? Maybe...it's going to be tough in the world we live in now with alternatives like Facebook, NextDoor, DallasHwy, Twitter, etc. But paulding.com certainly has a better chance if open feedback is not only allowed but encouraged. 7 Link to post Share on other sites

mojo413 Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 I realized this morning I’m enjoying the New Paulding.Com. For years I had my settings set to see topics discussed in the last 24 hours. When that setting got down to only showing 4 or 5 topics, I changed it to show topics discussed in the past week. When that setting only showed 4 or 5 topics discussed in the last week, I changed it to show topics discussed in the last 2 weeks. Just prior to the unveiling of the New Paulding.Com, I was down to approaching 10 topics shown for the past 2 weeks. Already I’ve changed my setting back to show topics discussed in the past week and there are 23 topics showing. Keep it up. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Blunt Trauma Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 I miss the hairdresser and crafter fights. Those were so much less predictable and way more entertaining than the political stuff.

LPPT Posted July 15, 2019 Report Share Posted July 15, 2019 I have a question. It tells me that I can not start a new topic. Are there a new set of rules on this. This is my first time back in quite some time, so I'm out of the loop. I have done some research so I need to ask what forum you want and how you are getting to the forum? I don't need to know what you want to post. We are looking into bugs with browsers as a cause for some issues so I need to know what you have tried. Your permissions are good and it shows you have been a very good poster with no moderation. We are definitely glad to see you back. We hope you stick around as we go trough the changes.

LPPT Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Go to the top of the page see the activity tab click it drop it down and see to the left an all activity tab that is your recent topics button. Of course clicking forums gives you the tab on the right to start new topic. It is not as fancy as the old board. But it has some new features especially being mobile friendly that we need.
