We're grumpy you and me.

Cliff, I've no idea what your day job is, but I strongly suggest you don't give it up just yet......

That is good, I write the jokes for a mob of woodworkers to post on a wood forum.

But they still come up in the "New Post" search, it's just that the actual post is ignored within a thread.

Obvious solution is to make the jokes forum a subforum in Nothing to do with woodwork and make it password accessible same as the drivel forum.

Then those that want them can see them, those that don't don't and everyone will be happy.

No only the jokes and maybe the pen turning forum, for they are just drivel.

I wouldn't have thought the joke section would cause that much problem. Looking at the joke forum I see that 19 jokes have been posted in 4 days and these jokes generated 39 replies which make the total posts up to 58 in all. Over a period of 4 days, if we count a day as 8 hours, that represents 1.8 posts in an hour on average. I know it doesn't work out like that but even so if there was 5 or 6 posts in any one given hour from the joke forum, is it really that difficult to pass over them to the post you are looking for.

I guess we all have to do that because we all have differing ideas and facets to our woodworking interests and there are a lot of threads that we have to skip over in the process of looking at the ones we are interested in.
