Aug 13 10 3:43 PM Burgomaster Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Well, you stormed the castle and we heard you. About nine months ago we asked what changes you'd like to see in 2010 at the CHFB (that thread is in this Forum somewhere). Anyhow, after many delays, we're beginning to implement several suggestions, including a Horror FICTION Forum, splitting the 60s and 70s Forum into two, consolidating Forums that are duplicative, a Super Spy Forum, figuring out how to give Animation its due, and a surprise Forum we'll be unveiling soon. We've also consolidated Announcements, Getting Started and the Yuku Forum all into this combined Welcome to the CHFB Forum. We're also going to combine Classic Horror News and Horror Events into a unified Classic Horror News and Events. We hope the results, being phased in, will result in a cleaner, smarter and better organized CHFB 'experience.' Anyhow, bear with us, and when you do see a NEW Forum, please dive in and try to make it...alive! Because in truth, no matter what we call these things, the blood and the life of the CHFB is all of you! And let us know what you think as this moves along. Thanks. david and the burgomeisters...

Nice to see them show up on PBS at pledge drive time. Seriously, David, Gary and Kerry (which of you is "the cute one"?)-- the changes sound well thought out, positive and useful. I'm sure they will make an excellent message board into a excellenter one. (Is that a word?) Looking forward to the unveiling of the Surprise Forum! http://universalmonsterarmy.com/blog/

Aug 14 10 1:24 AM Burgomaster Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Thanks for the support. If this works right, we may end up with the same number, or maybe up only one or two folders, er, Forums, than we have now. So far, we've added one (Horror by Candlelight), and removed two others by combining folders (Yuku and Getting Started combined into this folder), and Horror News and Events combined into one folder. So that's minus one so far, which gives us room to add on!

Can't wait to see these happen (especially the Super Spy and Animation folders!)... thanks very much for listening to our incessant, self-debasing pleas! "I say ALL you scientists are CRACKPOTS!

Aug 15 10 5:33 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I've long wondered why the 60's and 70's weren't broken up into two separate decades (LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS to ALIEN is a long stretch), but I'm glad you finally did it! Thanks and keep up the good work!

Personally, I like reading those threads and hearing various folk weigh in, and I learn a thing or two sometimes from the exchanges...

I like this idea as wel; sometimes when people are trying to find out what they've seen, they have no idea which decade the movie is from, or even if it's a TV show instead. No, my friend, you haven't seen everything that can happen to a cow. That would be scientifically impossible.

I like this idea as wel; sometimes when people are trying to find out what they've seen, they have no idea which decade the movie is from, or even if it's a TV show instead. I noticed the large number of "What's the name of this movie?" threads as well and I'm inclined to create an area for them. I think it would be intersting to read and fun to participate. I hesitate because of the widely held notion that there are all ready too many folders. I'd like to hear from more members about this before proceeding. Regarding the '70s folder, we moved threads that were obvious to get things moving ASAP. There is probably a considerable number of '70s threads left behind; my intent was to go back and look up any potential candidates when I had a bit more time. The process of moving threads on the yuku platform is tedious and time consuming. Anyone who wants to identify such threads remaining in the '60s folder by name and page number is welcome to do so and has our gratitude! GARY L. PRANGE "Sic gorgiamus allos subjectos nunc."

Aug 17 10 8:46 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I'd love a "What's the name of this movie" folder. It would be nice for new posters who feel afraid of getting off on the wrong foot by posting in the wrong folder, but don't know the exact name, year, or genre of a film. I'll be happy to do some scanning the 1960s folder in a little while. It beats staring at the wash spinning around at the laundromat (yes my laundromat has Wifi)!
