Howdy All,

Few days back I noticed that many of us had started Journals for
keeping track of our prospecting adventures, but they seemed to
be spread over a couple of the forums.

I asked Jeff about making a new forum for those of us keeping
Journals, as that way it will be much easier to find/follow the
various members journals.

They agreed, and the new form is right on top. 8-)

Not sure if the staff will automatically move all the Journals
to the new spot, but I've asked Jeff to move mine, and
hopefully we'll soon have an awesome database of prospecting
experience in those journals that visitors and members can
read, enjoy and learn from.

Well I tried to start my own journal and was greeted with a message that I do not have permission to post... and now the journal forum is gone.

They might not have the "permissions" set yet...I dunno. Just
checked and the forum is still there, and when I hit "New Thread"
everything worked fine. (I didn't post one).

Great idea DD.

Looks like they may be working on the details as I don't see the journal thread either right now.

I hope everyone knows journals are written by "authors" that fabricate or that liberates with facts. These journals can all be fakes and are for entertainment purposes only.

I hope you are speaking in jest, as there's no reason for anyone to stretch
the truth in a journal, and in fact most guys will never tell you just how much
gold they really have. That, and people don't appreciate being called liars. I don't.

Jeff, I don't see the Journals forum currently under the
Gold Prospecting section. Could be they're still setting it
up?

I don't think Sandman would call our members Liars,
I am guessing there is a Misinterpretation here

I looked under "My Threads" and clicked on the link for my journal,
but was unable to view the page due to permission issues. No worries,
as those things are simple to sort out with VBulletin, and I'm sure they'll
have it up and running soon enough.

its great to have them all centralized. its going to be much easier for me to locate and stay up to day on everyones threads while im at work. keeps me from having to click all over the place to find them! Excellent suggestion Dizzy!

Im assuming they are still working out the kinks. i saw the thread this morning but now i dont.

Any one else having a problem with the new journals threads automatically subscribing when you post on them? I just posted to my journal thread and it won't show up on my subscribed list.
