Thanks! Now you know how often I visit the fan forums.

GA, what do you think about moving Josh & Andi's fan thread right above their general discussion thread until BIP starts to air. Then everything Andi can be moved down in the proper past contestant/couples threads.

My plan was to move the Josh and Andi General Discussion with the rest of them in :

Bachelor- Bachelorette- Couples and Contestant Forums - Discussions

Bach Couples Gen Discussion

[GuardianAngel]

I am moving things around today. Just to recap what I'm doing, all the fan threads will go in the Fan Category, all the General Discussion goes in the General Discussion for couples and former contestants.

There are a couple of old sections that are messed up, who ever created them, created topics outside of categories, support says it has to stay that way. I'm using it for Rules. You will see a separate topic at the end of other threads every once in awhile. I couldn't move anything out of there, so I had to create a category for them,  then  move the topic in the category, it was the only way.

You can see in the Contestant fan thread they are all together now, where as before Brooks Zak Drew etc, were split. The Fan Rules below, is the section I can't get rid of.

Let me know if you see something that needs to be added or moved. I still have more to do, so give me a few hours.

I'm sticking this here, just as a reminder for myself, because I do want to change the rules. I responded to her and told her we have been discussing this.

Please add anything else.

Fan threads - no discussion of any other contestant or lead in a negative manner in a Fan Thread.

No copying posts from a Fan thread to any General discussion thread.

Hi, GA:
First and foremost, THANK YOU for all you've done.
I know Nick is very controversial and his discussion thread has both positive and negative opinions, which is totally OK by me. (Even though it upsets me sometimes   ) My issue is how some Jodi fans attack Nick on the fan thread. For example, someone called him Jack A$$ in the Jodi facebook fan thread. I was very bothered by it, but out of respect for their fans, I chose to keep quiet. I understand we should be positive in the fan threads, but is it OK to bash other contestants in the fan threads?
I don't think most Nick fans have any negativity towards Josh but it's Andi that many of us don't like. I hope we Nick fans will stay classy in our fan thread

This reminds me why I am so happy Lipsis is policing the S/C fan threads.
I hate going into the fan threads. Hate it, but I guess as a mod, policing the more recent fan threads will be on my agenda.
It's not fair for the fan threads to discuss other cast negatively knowing nothing can be done in defense or otherwise. Besides the fact it's OT, even though I have generally be lax on OT.
I rue the day LM/San started these fan threads, but it is what it is now!  :shocked!: 

[GuardianAngel]

haha Kasha, the Fan threads are way OTT!

Honestly, though, if there are any mod's that don't like them, no worries, you don't have to go in there.

I don't know how to broach the subject--it was brought to my attention that Chris S, who most likely will be the next bachelor, has been noted glad handing Iowan politicians of a particular party.
It might be time to discuss amongst us mods, how we feel about politics entering the threads before it happens.
Personally, I hate the idea of threads going political. JMO.

No politics IMO! I better add that to the rules. I shouldn't have asked in that thread, but it was strange to me that the Gov of Texas was at the Iowa State Fair. Good point, before it gets out of hand.

My comment was prompted before I even read your post!   
It was referenced from things I had been reading on Chris and thinking of where future discussions could go with politics on this forum and whether or not we wanted to head that type of discussion off at the pass.
GMTA!!
