ramin Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 The question is why there isn't a sociology thread, while there is a psychology thread. The two approaches are very different, yet related, thus very important to co-exist. Can you give me a good response on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 There isn't enough interest on SFN to warrant creating a section for sociology alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramin Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 It might be necessary though, because psychology w/out sociology is so incomplete. Also, won't people in the future be interested? And don't all the sciences apply to the science of society and social consciousness? I would think an engineer would have a say so in sociology more than psychology.

Phi for All Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I would suggest posting in the Psychology forum, but preface each thread with, "This is actually dealing with Sociology, but there is no separate forum, so...." Get some interesting threads going with a lot of varied members joining in and we'll probably see a sub-forum created. Lots of interest will speak volumes.

Dak Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 a thread that i was posting on got moved, and it took me ages to find it. what about a sticky in each forum (or just one in general chat) entitled 'recently moved threads' so that we dont have to hunt for our posts after theyve been moved? like they have on this forum? oh, and would it be possible to get rid of the last k of my name? i didnt mean to put it there, guess it doesnt matter but i would prefer 'Dak' if possible?

Phi for All Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 a thread that i was posting on got moved, and it took me ages to find it. Normally when a thread is moved, a redirect is left behind to tell you where it went. Sorry yours didn't happen this way, it's not the norm. oh, and would it be possible to get rid of the last k of my name? i didnt mean to put it there, guess it doesnt matter but i would prefer 'Dak' if possible?Sayo can do this, send him a PM and a large sum of money and hope for the best.

Sayonara Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Dammit. Whenever I move a thread, I leave a redirect if the topic of the thread is ambiguous and could have belonged to either the source or destination category, or if there are enough replies to make lots of people confused if it moves "silently". If it's self-evidently in the wrong forum, has few or no replies, or is being moved out of public view, I don't bother. Redirects seem untidy.

Dak Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 ok, heres a bug report: Whenever I move a thread' date=' I leave a redirect if the topic of the thread is ambiguous and could have belonged to either the source or destination category, or if there are enough replies to make lots of people confused if it moves "silently". If it's self-evidently in the wrong forum, has few or no replies, or is being moved out of public view, I don't bother. Redirects seem untidy.[/quote'] i cant actually see this post. i knew it was there, cos in the forum it said 'last post by sayonara', but when i clicked on the link, the last post i could see was my post, that ended in 'hahano'. clicked on 'reply', and below the reply box it shows sayos post, but when im just normaly viewing this thread it doesnt show it, and the 'select page' thingy only goes up to page 7. jus thought u might like to know -edit- now that iv posted this, it will let me see page 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blike Posted March 28, 2005 Author Share Posted March 28, 2005 I noticed that yesterday Dak, but it only seemed to be in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 ok, heres one: you know the little title below our names, that reads 'baryon' etc. why not let mods change peoples title, and tell the mods to entitle people with a title that reflects their posting habbits. so people could end up with titles such as 'scientist' if they reference when appropriate and rarely post crap, and 'nipple-head' if they flame/troll. 'lizard-man' if they demonstrate a love of and deep knowledge of reptiles, or 'religiouse fruitcake' if they're willow. it could be used to enforse rules (hey, you trolled. FAZAM! in a poof of moderation-related-smoke, your title now reads 'shit-head'. go a week without trolling and ill change it back) or reward proper posting (hey, you post good - what do u want your title to be). plus ittd be more fun than 'lepton' etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 A few people have received that treatment, such as Pinch Paxton. (Zarkov Univ. Alumnus). But doing that for everybody would take too much time. If they just did it for the special people, trolls, etc. then it would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xnebulalordx676 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 How's that so when I noticed another "atom" had recently posted there? Hrm sir.

timo Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 That would mean that the threshold lies somewhere in the range of the user title "atom" or below, I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
