Management of Success
Posted: Wed Jun 29, 2022 5:11 pm
This forum has been an instant success with almost 1,000 registered members already. Congrats to Liam and team, a really great effort.
In the first 3 days there have been 47 new topics created in the Main Forum, again a great effort by members who have really bought into the new place.
With success of course comes management of that success and I wondered whether rationalising some of the topics in a more prescribed way might be better now rather than waiting for it to turn into members saying they can't find anything!
For instance, for SP discussion there is an already established topic called "Share Price" with no posts and in the Main Forum there is one called "SP drop" with 7 posts, and a GGP Share Price movement page with 5 posts. Would it not be better to sweep up all SP related discussion in one thread wherever that sits?
Could we also have one for each of Greatland's tenements after all that's why we're here? Paddy opened one for Blackhills and it might be sensible to open one now for the others in anticipation of GGP development. itsa10bag opened one for Scally though it's confusing what purpose this thread is all about.
"Determination of the 5% of Havieron" will have a short shelf life (hopefully!) and can then be archived. But I am sure you have this in hand.
"Permitting and Environment Manager" seems a little forlorn on its own on the 2nd page now - it would be better coming under the Havieron flag or even under Staff recruitment generally. Not fussed either way.
Anyway I hope this makes sense and hopefully could head off search issues further down the line.
