What's with moving all these posts, lately?

Now I've got to check like 10 different forums.

I understand to keep thing organized, but this is overkill.

Or is it just me?

I did it. We as mods want to keep the hiring stuff in the hiring section and the merger-SLI stuff in the Mergers Section. If we did not the first page of the majors section would be DAL Hires!, What do I do to get on at DAL? I love DAL, CAL-UAUA etc.

If you want the latest and greats about CAL or DAL it is here, If you want mergers go to mergers, if you want hiring go to pre-interview or hiring news. That is where the stuff goes.

It is great info, but we also do not want the front page of this section filled with topics that need to be somewhere else. There is a permanent link on this page.

Okay, but do pre-interviewing and hiring have to be two forums? Then why not have separate forums for major and regional hiring? My point is, where does it end?

To me, it just takes away from the user-friendliness that I liked about this web site. It was working fine before. I just don't see a reason to suddenly change it.

Just my $.02.

Hiring news and discussion of those particular jobs and the companies offering them is always closely related. But a reason to have a separate Hiring Forum showing only job listings is that quickly-filled jobs are separated from the discussion chaff and you can act on a posting quickly. These days especially, jobs are often filled within minutes of public listing.

It's a HELL of a lot better than it used to be.

Amazing what happens when just ONE toxic element is removed.

The answer would seem to be obvious. the Hiring forum is "private". I'm not looking for a job, so I haven't tried to gain access, but I bet that it costs money to gain access to the "private" board. What do you think?
