shortstep Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Wondering if 'In The News' could be changed and divided up into two sections. One dealing with current events and happenings, science news, law changes, animal politics and so forth. The other dealing with dog/animal abuse and crimes. Thanks for thinking about it.

SkySoaringMagpie Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'd put this in the suggestions forum where Troy will see it. I agree by the way, I am really sick of reading graphic descriptions of animal cruelty in subject lines and if it was in a separate forum I'd ask Troy to block it for me.

Staranais Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Yes, I agree. I'm interested in political stories, law stories, science stories etc related to dogs. Not at all interested in graphic violence, even if it is "news". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 New forum has been created. Please note though that I can't block access to it ... it will be up to you to check which forum the topic is in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxx'sBuddy Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) New forum has been created. Please note though that I can't block access to it ... it will be up to you to check which forum the topic is in. that's a shame about the no blocking. i check new posts and am becoming a bit disturbed at graphic descriptions in the titles of posts in the news section so i would have wanted this to be blocked. eta maybe people could resist putting the graphic descriptions in the titles and descriptions if the forum can't be blocked?

I don't use the 'view new posts' so am not bothered with that aspect of it, I just hope people see there is now a specific place to put those awful threads.

I have one more query about this forum - is there any possibility that the "home page" can be set to not show the latest topic if it happens to be in the sub forum.

Mrs Rusty Bucket Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 It would be nice to be able to "ignore" certain sections like the disturbing news section. There are definitely some things I don't want in my face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are definitely some things I don't want in my face. It's not so much the cruelty stories that upset me (although I totally understand how they really upset other people) as the teenage angsty screams calling for the abuser to be tortured that I find extremely distressing when we supposedly live in a civilised society. Sure dont click on the link but it comes up on the top of the page so you cant miss the title and know full well what's going to happen in the thread.
