...one Forum. Basic Astrology gets very low traffic due to that Password requirement. I can't remove the Password. So, what do y'all think of closing it (I would actually turn it off, so it wouldn't be visible)? I would transfer the really good strings to Astrology 2.0 so bump the ones you would like to keep. Nothing would be deleted, so I can bring it back later once I solve the puzzle of removing the Password. Yea or nay? What sayeth thee? That would bring us to 32 Forums instead of 33, but that is also a really great number (same as a 14 and a 23). ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I'm ok with it as long as u move the threads. The password isn't an issue for me but I do go there and look sometimes and have found useful info. But its ur call not mine IP: Logged |

I think it should be closed as it is SO hard to go in and out that I don't think that most people will bother imo.------------------ Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Could make it an archive (read only). There are a few great ones I'd like to move--like Lala's.------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I can also create a new Forum. When I turn off the Password, it makes the posts disappear (go invisible). So, if we could come up with another good Forum, that would be an option. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

Why not create a duplicate Basic Astrology forum without a password and move all the threads there?IP: Logged |

They have to be moved one by one. Way too many there to do that.------------------

Oops! That was me above. Happylioness said she couldn't post, so I did a test string in KTAA to show her she can, and cookies stored her Username and Password. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I can help you. I have no problem doing that in off times. I don't think it will take me that long. Maybe 3-4 days.IP: Logged |

Thanks, Yin! I don't think you realize how big of a job that is, though. BTW, who deleted the Saggi clutter there?------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

Not me but I LOVE organizational projects and it's one way I can really contribute to LL. 600 threads * 3 clicks each, provided I have the username/password auto-filled. That's 1800 clicks. Not too bad.IP: Logged |

Actually, I've almost decided that I will create a new Forum, and then if y'all want to volunteer to help move stuff, I will make Yin, Sunshine, Platero, and another one as Mods in Basic astrology for moving purposes. The new name would be: Astrology For Beginners. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

Nice, Randall! Glad you went with my idea. I'll be around to move stuff when you create the new forum. There are way too may good strings in Basic Astrology that people will now get to discover. IP: Logged |

Done! When moving them, always keep them in the current Forum locked, do not choose to delete in the current Forum. That way, we will hsve a back-up.IP: Logged |

@ Randall do you want threads deleted if they're just full of the word "edit" and if the original content is gone (referring to some non-Saggic MC threads)?IP: Logged |
