Suggestion/question

Do you think it's a good/bad idea to give CC license threads their own subforum? Lately it seems that over half of the threads started in CC Issues and Discussions are some form of I just applied for, I'm still waiting for, or I just received my CC license.

Or is there a way to filter these out from my viewer so that I can find the information threads that are buried in there?

Perhaps you could start your own webpage and keep out the undesireables.

I was wondering what elicited this response until I went and counted your 9-10 individual threads all about your CHL wait time. Maybe you could start your own webpage just to keep us all informed of your struggles.

I really appreciate your concern over my long awaited (over due) CHL. Believe me, I'll also be glad when I can post threads that dont pertain to my "struggles". BTW, it's 120 days now and no plastic. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to express my unhappiness with the crappy wait time and my longing to be one of the privlaged CHL people.

Ernie I wasn't singling you out, you were just the one that responded. I also don't want to do away with the I got my CHL and I'm still waiting for my CHL threads. I just thought it might be more convenient if they were separated out from the Concealed Carry Issues and Discussion section. There is a lot of great information posted in that area that gets lost due to the number of "license" threads.

Please look at it this way. You've already started 9-10 threads just about your license. That might be some sort of record. Others usually start 2-3 threads on their license, sometimes more. Some people even get licenses from multiple states and post threads about those. IMO, there is a large volume of these specific threads, so maybe having their own area will keep things neater.

I'm sorry you took offense, and I'm really sorry you've waited so long for your CHL.

Bumper would make the decision about adding any new sub-forums. At this point, it's the staff's consensus that we have enough already. We don't want to reach the point of saturation where the forum would become unwieldy and hard to manage.

No new sub forums please. The easy navigation of this site has already become much more cluttered and on the brink of being to much.

As for the threads about waiting for a new license, personally, I don't give a hoot about your wait. Sorry, but I just don't. So, I don't read such threads. It does get annoying when people make multiple threads about going to their mailbox and returning with nothing but junk mail. It does nothing but bury the worthwhile threads under a sea of garbage that nobody really cares about anyway, so kindly stop doing such things. One thread is fine, but any more than that is annoying.
