Hi, all! Until recently, it hasn't been a problem placing story hour plugs in the General Discussion forum. Lately, though, the wonderful growth in story hours means that the number of "I've updated" announcements are starting to get out of hand. As I write this, there are four on the first page alone.
So what to do?
One solution is to have a single "I've updated" thread that people would post to. I doubt this would work very effectively, though; the story hour plugs work due to their titles, not their content.
I think a better solution is to ask you to please self-manage. That means waiting to post if the front page has more than one or two announcements on it, and not placing an "I've updated" post every single time you do an update. If we can keep the volume on these down, we'll have no need to go to a single announcement thread.
In addition, consider plugging your story hour by posting in someone else's thread promoting theirs. This has the added benefit of boosting their announcement and not further cluttering the boards.
Thoughts, comments, ideas, complaints?
