Discussion of Pick-Up Threads...

This just might be doable..

I just spoke with JK on the phone. I think picking up the phone and calling a person is valuable when things get a little heated. I have always been able to come to an understanding by doing this. Here's the deal....JK makes a very valid point that the pick up threads have a lot of commentary, good commentary, but commentary nonetheless. I just counted the number of scans vs total posts in the 4th pickup thread. I hurriedly counted 28 posts with scans out of 58 total posts.....Lets say about half of the posts have scans.....

The issue is that we can start a new pickup thread every other day and at the end of the month we will have 15 pickup threads and they will not have the organization we are hoping for....ie..fewer threads and more pics.

Either we can make the pickup threads last 60-70 total posts or we can do one every Monday (which I think I like, without giving it too much thought so far)......At the end of the day I want to do what the majority of the board wants to do in this instance....thoughts? I do agree there are probably more different pick up threads than there needs to be every month....also, is anyone still on dial up?
