Good Ideas thread

Good Ideas thread

Hi all,

I'm just kicking this off so we can have all the good ideas pinned in one spot. Problem is I don't know quite how to do it! @NikNik can you help please? I think that @kato 's idea about charging for advertising should be here. (But I can't find it )

I think we should have the Book review idea here too - was that yours @Uggbootdiva ? Or was it NikNik? (PS Not so sure about rating with cats rather than stars, maybe penguins?)

I thought that was another great idea, can't remember who had it - for our mascot to be penguins. It was @Harry ! and that is here http://saneforums.org/t5/Enjoying-time-with-others/Talking-about-pets/td-p/1743/highlight/true/page/2

So roll up rool up and post your wonderful and varied ideas for the forum right here.

I guess you could count likes as a bit of a vote for in favour of the idea too @NikNik ?

Cheers, Kristin

Re: Living with depression is debilitating!!!!!

Hi @Loopy

Thanks for the thought, I really appreciate your enthusiam , but...

To be honest I think it is really important to have each individual member's permission to use their posts in the project, and also SANE's permission seeing as they are the forum's "owner". I simply wouldn't feel ok about using anyone's posts without their express permission.

I'd like to use a nom de plume for each person (whether their forum name or something else, I don't mind) so that individual journeys can be related/told.

So I think we're going to need to be a bit patient, and clearly you struggle with that as much as I do!

Kindest regards,

Kristin

PS I think we need @NikNik's help to get both your post & mine moved to the good ideas thread, & any suggestions for asking all of the others on LE forum, as well as the folk on the carer's forum, please Nik?

Re: Living with depression is debilitating!!!!!

Hi @kristin and @Loopy,

I'd be happy to move your posts to the 'Good Ideas Thread'. @Loopy is that right by you? Another option would be to continue this discussion by clicking through to this link from hereon to not throw this conversation of track.

Regarding compiling posts: While I love your idea @Loopy, I'm not 100 percent certain of the legalities of this. My understanding is that though this a public forum, members sign up with an understanding of how their posts will be used in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. Within this, SANE is restricted to reproducing posts only if it for the purpose of public health and medical research. My suggestion, Loopy, would be to follow this up by contacting the team@saneforums.org for more information.

Re: Living with depression is debilitating!!!!!

Thanks for moving them @CherryBomb

I wonder if the ones from @Loopy , @Alessandra1992 , @Maude & myself need to be moved there too? Or maybe even a new thread altogether. Maybe the rest of you could "like" this for moving it to the existing good ideas thread, or post a reply if you think we should set up a seperate one.

If we cannot do this within the forum/rules, and enough of us are keen to go ahead with it I'm sure something could be worked out, facilitated by SANE so that it might be possible. It would certainly be a powerful message.

Kind reagrds,

Kristin

Hi @kristin @Loopy and @Maude,

I moved your discussion about the posts and making a book to here as suggested by Kristin. I also thought I'd move it mean time so it wouldn't throw the other conversation of track. Let me know if that works, otherwise, I'm happy to move it to a new thread.

Hi @CherryBomb

Thanks, can you please edit it so the page link is emedded in the "here"?

BTW the mention function is seriously playing up tonight. I reckon it can't be very robust. As a guess the more users active on the forum at any one time the more it plays up!

Cheers,

K

Re: Living with depression is debilitating!!!!!

Hi @kristin,

Do you mean add a link to the 'Good Ideas Thread' here?

I've aslo noticed the '@' mention feature playing up. The '@' dissappears before the name? Very peculiar. I'll log this with IT. I suspect that it's another bug the software developers will need to work on.
