Me (N+1) !

Am I missing new articles being posted or has this feature not returned? I really enjoyed the members articles and insight.

I also miss them. I learned so much from them. It was always fun to see what the next one would be about. I think it is a great feature of the site, even if they were only once a week.

I, too, miss the old member articles - some were only 2-3 sentences but great 'aha' moments. I especially appreciated the time and effort some folks put into longer articles, very informative. I suppose the Learning Library tab could be useful, but nothing there is dated or sourced, so...

C'est la vie.

They were informative and a good way for us to interact. I think the site has grown so much we lost the camaraderie part. I miss that.

I see members interacting and friendly camaraderie on forums every day.

Lin, I guess I should have said it seems more muddled to me because there's so much going on, it's hard for me to keep up. I have a few forums that I watch and enjoy very much chatting in those forums but it's a limited group that I'm talking to. I can't keep up with things like I used to.

The articles were a great way to see what many other people are doing and chat with people I wouldn't normally have contact with. I don't have the time to peruse such a large community.

It's just my perspective. That's all. I don't expect anyone or everyone to agree.

Christine, I watch only 21 out of the 100+ forums here on garden.org but I don't find time to interact/comment on all of the posts either. I do sometimes go back through the list of Articles and read some that I may have missed.

Do you watch the "Gardening Ideas Forum" here: https://garden.org/forums/view... where members can comment and interact on each thread? Perhaps that forum replaced the members submitting articles to be published on the home page? I'd totally forgotten about that forum and just checked to watch it!

Instead of the forum title Gardening Ideas, I wonder if maybe the forum could be renamed Gardening Ideas and Articles since the info box on the right side of that forum page states: "The NGA Gardening Ideas Forum is the place to post your gardening ideas and articles."

Thank you, Lin. I have happened upon the Gardening Ideas Forum a time or two recently but I'll have to add it to my watch list.

Actually, I did recently comment on an idea there, with a question. I don't think I ever heard back from that person. Oh well.
