Does anyone notice less threads and posts? Reposted topics on each side?

Just wondering if anyone notices that there are fewer topics posted on both forums, repeating threads on both sides, yet less threads overall? I counted 5 new threads on the Hep Forum and 6 on the community forum. There used to be over 20 some days on the orginal forum. Some redundant now, when people post on both boards the same question or comment. Does this really serve the community as a whole? Also while I am happy that there is now a link to the Hep forum there is not one the other way. While I tend to like the separation of the forums, so I don't feel quilty for making funnies, or chit chat on the other side, all of this seems to happen anyway. Also, I don't see the researhers post on any one specific board...it depends on the topic. Can't they all be on one? Separating us seems to have made more redundency, therefore more threads, or less thread, because people don't want to go back and forth and try to read all the posts and threads...who has that kind of time or patience?

You couldn't post or read? These Pay per view movies are like 14.99 a pop! I like where you can rewind or pause the movies. My problem is I fall asleep, forget to put on pause and it ends and goes away. NO way I am paying again, unless it was a damn good movie. With my memory these days, sometimes I don't even know what is going on...why I love Tivo. I can rewind, and rewind and rewind...an hour show could take me three!

After all the dramas this morning, I took a nice nap. I can't seem to watch movies either. I fall asleep! Too bad, we have some good Pay Per View here and the only one I tried to watch I fell asleep during. Day after shot today, usually feel a bit yucky. Sorry to hear you aren't feeling to well!

Well I noticed that too,  I have not been posting 'cause I was feeling pretty yucky ...  couldn't even bear to read...  I think I watched about 30 of my old vcr movies....*lol*  slept through half of them..  I think Med Help will get it all sorted out eventually - especially if they get feedback on all the "glitches".

I've said it before but what the hell? This whole new format sucks. Firefox looks weird with this thing and maybe it is a bug or maybe it's witchcraft? I can't get witches out of my mind today.

possibly MH is moving some over that they feel belong in Hepititus Community rather than Hepititus Forum? Just guessing. I think maybe the personal stats belong here(?)so they get moved over(?)As I said I'm just guessing.

Well, at least we are here! Luv you bug and if you are the only one here, so be it. Yeah, I think we need (or THEY need to) figure out what the problem is, obviously there is one. At night, there are sometimes fewer posters, especailly for us Left coasters. Many people do come back, let's hope this change and doesn't have a bad effect on the whole forum---splitting is still a bad idea in my mind. Even the Dr's they hope to keep around browse both boards...so how can this help? I really like not having to worry about posting trivial, and off topic stuff, but I think the Dr's like reading this stuff as well....it is part of being human.

Definitely less posts. Kind of sad after all the work that went into both forums. For awhile it seemed to be doing pretty good. Maybe this is just a fluke, who knows? Definitely less responses. WE'RE THE ONLY ONES HERE!!!!!!!!!!!

You are right, that is my point! We are all a community that care about one another. We have limited time and when we find the same questions posted on both sides, of course we are going to respond, if we can. I notice a lot fewer threads...there were so many more when we had one forum. I hope we aren't sending people away w/o the support we gave before. We can't answer all those newbies that would post on one forum....Now they have to navigate to two. I like being able to spread out and express how I feel on the community forum, but also love the debate etc. on the hep forum. I found myself not knowing which forum I was on the other day and wondered what the point was of having two. I don't want to push people away because they can't deal with posting on both.

It's been very slow here lately I think. I get busy doing things I have to do and when I get back to checking on the forum I haven't missed anything. I think I have the last response to like a million threads! And it is redundant to call people from one side to another. But the beauty of it is that there are enough caring people who want to help.
