    There's been a few suggestions lately about what changes people would like.  I figure we could discuss various things here, instead of having a separate thread for each.

    Please note, there is the idea link up on the top left hand side, this is more for a discussion than to get attention of the weddingbee team.

    I'm not as against seeing the baby posts as some, but I would appreciate having the nesting boards (home, newlyweds, pets & cooking) separate from the baby related posts (babies, ttc, parenting, pregnancy).  Every now and then I like the read the baby boards, but when I'm not interested then I can skip them.  I also find the nesting boards aren't used that much, and I think it is because you have to click on each board as the baby ones get so many posts.  I have found that the cooking board has bumped up the traffic on the others a bit too though, so it could be worse.

    Boards I would like to see:

    Finance (separate from the wedding related money) to discuss things like taxes, saving for a house, kids, life in general, budgeting, banking and things like that. I added this to ideas so you may vote.

    Birth control board - if there isn't a childfree board, I think there's enough posts to warrent separating it from wellness and would help have them all together as some are in intimacy

    What I've seen by others:

    Childfree (kinda the obvious one right now! you can vote for it in ideas)

    DIY for home reno type things (whether this bee is familar with home I'm not sure, I think the home board is too quiet as it is)

    I agree with separating the babies and nesting boards. I created a thread about it in the Ideas section, everyone please vote!

    I would like the ability to directly quote a pp instead of just replying to their name, and I think we should always have the option to go back and delete or edit a post. The current rule seems strange to me.  What if I decide a week from now that I really shouldn't have put certain info in post?

    @GroovyHippieChick:  

    This, definitely.

    And the childfree board.

    @GroovyHippieChick:  I agree with quoting.  Sometimes I copy & paste, sometimes I'm too lazy.

    The editing thing I get to an extent.  It drives me nuts when I notice typos in my old posts, but it can get confusing and frustrating if people change the content of their posts.

    @Kant:  Thanks!  It was mentioned in comments on the ideas board, but it was under another idea.  Having it separate will probably help.
