There needs to be an off-topic board where we can forget about cats altogether and just go around chitchatting like women do.

Edited to add: I voted a five, but lately I have been really annoyed by how often I have to go back and forth between the old board and the new board to look up different threads. Is there any way we can repost the old threads on this forum???

I would really hate for all that work I put into the previous forum to be wasted.

Hi Shengmei,

We have discussed having an off topic forum, but for now have rejected it. However, Ragdoll Mom has created the Cat Cafe in the Cat Chat forum and I think that's a great place for what you suggested.

As for having to go back and forth between the old board and new board, I think that is just an unfortunate byproduct of the redesign with the new boards.

Thanks for your feedback!

I also saw you posted minutes later after your first post and you put "--waits for reply--" and really that's not fair to us.  What many may not realize is that this is a board of members--and not staff--- who voluntarily come here and offer their time for free to help others and to enjoy conversation with fellow cat lovers.  There are no set hours and no set requirements that we be here or even answer posts.  We come here because we want to be here.  Many do not understand that we do not have to answer posts at all.  If you are unhappy, then roll up your sleeves and get involved and help answer posts and begin learning more about cats so that you too can help out.  Sometimes there are little thanks to the people here who offer their opinions and for the research or time taken to provide responses.   

If you want to contact the moderator and get a response from her to this non-emergency problem about the refresh probably on Monday or Tuesday you can e-mail her directly at catmoderator@bowtieinc.com.  I cannot help you with the refresh and can only tell you don't hit the refresh button if it is doing something right now that you don't want it to do.  Personally, I don't hit the refresh button at all.  She may not know the answer either and it may be a technical question that she can run by the technical people but they may not have an immediate answer for you either.  Good luck.

Cats, as a class, have never completely got over the snootiness caused by the fact that in ancient Egypt they were worshipped as gods.
