AnneLine Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) Thank you for the prayers. My mother had a deep love of the Theotokos, the Joy of All Who Sorrow, and prayed her Akathist every Friday afternoon. Here is a link to that particular service: Akathist to Our Most Holy Lady, the Theotokos, the Joy of All Who Sorrow I saw that yesterday, Apotheoun, and I will pray for her... and for you. First anniversaries are tough... A legitimate reason for a :hijack: but now to get back on topic..... CatherineM, I'm not sure the prayer requests or Q&A would go -- isn't it just lameboard stuff? dUSt? I will note, however, that it is increasingly hard to find info on a google search for Phatmass and some obscure thing... a lot of things I have been able to find in the past are now missing... Undoubtedly not big in the general scheme of things, and I agree we need to do some clearing out...but still... kinda irritating when one is trying to joggle the aging memory....

Anastasia13 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) Is this because of shark week? There is a connection, isn't there? Edited August 10, 2013 by Light and Truth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneLine Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 ... CatherineM, I'm not sure the prayer requests or Q&A would go -- isn't it just lameboard stuff? dUSt? I will note, however, that it is increasingly hard to find info on a google search for Phatmass and some obscure thing... a lot of things I have been able to find in the past are now missing... Undoubtedly not big in the general scheme of things, and I agree we need to do some clearing out...but still... kinda irritating when one is trying to joggle the aging memory.... Re-read dUSt's proposal, and it IS all threads older than 5years with less than 20 posts. So CatherineM is right. Hmmmmm... can you exempt those 2 threads from the purge? Or at least the Q&A -- I'll let God take care of the prayer requests... but the Q&A might be helpful,,, especially if we ever get search [& props?] back....

dUSt Posted August 10, 2013 Author Share Posted August 10, 2013 I wouldn't delete anything from Q&A or Lame Board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneLine Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I wouldn't delete anything from Q&A or Lame Board. (emphasis added) dUSt, did you mean Q&A and Prayer Room? or Lame Board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUSt Posted August 10, 2013 Author Share Posted August 10, 2013 dUSt, did you mean Q&A and Prayer Room? or Lame Board? Sorry, prayer room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUSt Posted August 10, 2013 Author Share Posted August 10, 2013 Just to give you an idea, deleting all topics over 5 years old with less than 20 replies would only delete 3631 topics out of 22,828. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneLine Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Sorry, prayer room. ;) too many tacos, dUSt..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneLine Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 any feedback for us about the question I asked about putting in a general notification to all... or is it just too much of a hassle for you? Don't want to make more work for you.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apotheoun Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Just to give you an idea, deleting all topics over 5 years old with less than 20 replies would only delete 3631 topics out of 22,828. I wish there was a way to see the topics and whether they are serious or frivolous before deletion. Maybe some great apologetic post will be lost in the purge. That said, the number does look pretty small and if it make the forum run better I guess the sacrifice is worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anastasia13 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I wish I understood this general notification idea that Anneline and Apo were talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneLine Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 What I meant, L&T, was that maybe dUSt could put an announcement in EACH thread saying he was thinking of doing this, or even better, if the phorum technology permits, post ONE thread that appeared in all of the forums at once ... so everyone would have a chance to see what he is proposing and be able to give pheedback. When I ran an employment board at one point our webmaster was able to do that when we had limited service for holidays coming up or something like that... it was useful! But may not be possible with this software.... and if not, I'm asking if an announcement could go in all the threads to the same effect.... But whatever you want, dUSt!

qfnol31 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Man, I still go back to reference some of the old stuff from yesteryear. Oh well, just try not to delete the long good ones please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
