Topic: Suggestions Posted: 30 March 2007 at 9:21am |
I dont know where else to put this but i was wondering Emma if it was possible to make a Cloth Nappy Forum/Area to talk about them seeing there are so many users here...

Good idea Jess. Cloth nappy talk has kinda overtaken the Product Review section!

good idea, esp for us that are kinda new to the cloth idea, and thinking about changing, would be easier than trying to read through all the old threads

Might I suggest The Nappy Network ? They have reviews and discussions on just about every different type of MCN out there, and I know that more than a few OhBaby! members are also TNN members (myself included).

That's why we haven't had a dedicated board for cloth so far, but if there's enough interest I *might* be able to sell the idea to the boss...

I have signed up to the nappy network but I don't really like going on it because there are SOOOOOOOO many boards that it takes years to go through them that I end up getting annoyed

Yeah we are kinda a big community over there
It's not so bad....you only really end up reading the relevant forums...of course if you're like me that almost all of them!

Yer i think coz i spend most of my time on here its easier than going to TNN. So figured its easier to have a board here to. Like Stacey has said its to big and all we need is somewhere to ask basic questions and not have to sift through them all. Plus at least we know everyone here im not overly keen about having to get to know MORE people for nappy questions when i know there is a fair decent supply of experts on here
Im up for one on here whos with me

Well, best of luck Emma... considering Huggies is an OhBaby! sponsor

Sorry will rephrase...
We will have to see what Emmas Boss says i personally dont see tooo much of a problem...there are many sites out there that sponsor them and they have "competition" on the sites...
Just will be cool if there is a cloth section

I'm with Jess. I've been over to TNN but it's a bit daunting, a huge forum site with so many more people to get to know.
I'm hoping it wouldn't be that difficult to arrange it on here. After all, OhBaby Forums is not selling the idea of MCN, we're already doing those topics, it's just a separate place for them to go (tidier). At the moment a lot of our questions all get grouped into one topic and that's a bit confusing for newbies who are left to wade through or re-ask.

TNN does have a section for those who are new to cloth to ask questions...its called New To Cloth?
i just wonder tho if we have a section for cloth stuff then someone else will want a section for disposable users then someone else will want a section for sewing (off the top of my head) then one for boys only, then a dads only, then a .....and it goes on and on... and then we too run the risk of being that big confusing site that no one really wants to visit.
would it not be better perhaps to sticky the main cloth thread we already have? and maybe when someone clicks on "active topics" the sticky topics are brought up also.

jax i'm pretty sure that unlike some boards or plunket or other organisations in the baby industry the sponsor of this site cant dictate what topics we discuss..(well i hope so anyway... cause that would be very sad and i would stop coming here if huggies had that much influence.)

In my previous post, I was just pointing it out as it may be one of the issues that comes up when Emma asks Ange about it, I never said it would be impossible.
I think your idea is spot on Deb, sticky-ing would definitely help.

I agree with Deb about stickying one or two nappy threads, otherwise, condisering the strength of some of you ladies addictions, ohbaby runs the risk of becoming a cloth site!!!!
