Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 01-26-2017 09:53 AM Periodically I scan the New Members' Post Here forum looking for threads that need to move to a more appropriate forum. As the years have progressed this process has become more and more cumbersome because there are so many posts/threads that are missing photos, info and/or under developed. We have seen old posts like the above come back to life for one reason or another. Also the posts shows the new members' history of posting. So we really don't want to delete the posts unless they are truly nonsense. I want to move such posts to a separate forum..... Where I could use some suggestions is about what to call this new forum??? Perhaps: NMPH Legacy IP: Logged
asheland Posts: 935 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 01-26-2017 10:50 AM How about "New Members Reference Forum" ? IP: Logged
Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 01-26-2017 11:23 AM Thanks for the suggestion. I wonder if "Reference" might be misunderstood. Reference - provide (a book or article) with citations of authorities. IP: Logged
Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 01-26-2017 11:29 AM Perhaps better than NMPH Legacy would be NMPH Latency Latency - the state of existing but not yet being developed or manifest IP: Logged

agphile Posts: 798 Registered: Apr 2008	posted 01-26-2017 12:27 PM Latency would not make it self evident what the forum is about and I don't think it fairly describes the threads or posts I think you have in mind. While some may be dormant (latent with possibilities) others, perhaps most, will prove to be dead. Why not just call it new members' archived posts? Or perhaps dormant posts, even though some will never awake? Or am I somehow missing the point? [This message has been edited by agphile (edited 01-26-2017).] IP: Logged

asheland Posts: 935 Registered: Nov 2003	posted 01-27-2017 10:04 AM That looks good too. IP: Logged
Kimo Posts: 1627 Registered: Mar 2003	posted 01-27-2017 10:42 AM How about "The Phoenix Posts" Or, "Building on Oldies but Goodies" Or "Play it Again Smp" Or to be a bit tongue in cheek but definitely attention grabbing "Vampire Posts" IP: Logged
Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 01-27-2017 02:03 PM I thought I'd try it out.... I like it even though it might be too much. IP: Logged
