I would have to question why GR would want to take a well read thread and give it its own board. Would we see this happening for any popular thread? |

Why not just try one board for now and see how it goes - and if successful, then add other boards, as suggested. |

Hobbies and Interest board sounds good. Gardening, Mersey's Books, AnnG's Greaders, Crafts, Television, Theatre, Football and Other Sports, Household Tips, Pets, etc. |

alisoun, put Greaders into search and loads of threads should come up. It is not one thread but a series of threads that come up every six weeks. Each member on the thread chooses two books they would like to read, we then vote for two books each (but not voting for our own books). About a day later the vote is counted and books to be read named. Six weeks later we review the books we have read and another suggestions thread goes up. I will nudge up the May threads so you can see. :-) |

Hobbies and Interests board would be good. As well as the threads already mentioned you could include the writers thread too, can't remember the exact thread title, sorry, don't think that's been mentioned yet. |

So we have a plethora of boards, each about its own subject. |

Errol, I think the idea is that if there was a board for reading and interests and hobbies it would take those threads off the chat board thus freeing it up from getting clogged and slow running. |

Ann is right... one of our very well known posters on here does not have a tree, she removed it over a year ago. |

ChaoTic Cat, I meant to say, yes the writers thread would fit with that board although it is suspended at the moment as so many had to drop out for one reason or another. :-) |

Oh, what a shame. Hopefully everyone (most people) will get whatever it is that is preventing them from joining in sorted and it will be able to be restarted. |
