Yeah well am for one getting fed up. NYC forum is one of the most active on CD, what is the good of that when every other thread is about those GD "affordable housing lotteries". One cannot get away from them....


At least if confined to their own subgroup one could simply avoid. As things stand now you have to scroll down numerous posts to find any thread of interest. So many regular posters don't even show up anymore either.

Wouldn't it be better for the search engines if affordable housing (or a similar term) had its own sub-forum, with the term showing up in the URL and page title?

Absolutely agree!

I did find CD from looking up the development that had called me. Since then, I read the boards but I contribute to threads that are 'fun' or 'not too serious' as the political ones tend to be. I'm a member of many forums online as I'm sure many here are as well. I tend to visit the ones that are friendly and active the most. There are many interesting individuals here on this site that make this place pretty memorable though!
