Way too wordy. It's impossible to find specific help on the fly. Total re-write should be done.

I like that idea Toby. When the page is 1/2 taken up by stickies good topics get pushed to the second page and get lost.

One single thread with topic descriptions, and links would be fairly simple to accomplish.

I'm sure Wobbly could come up with a creative title for the thread.. ;D


Well, I could always have a single post with the individual links to each of the existing threads. In that way we could get down to 3 or 4 Stickies (max) AND the links themselves could be in the order Toby suggested. The threads themselves would go back into the stacks.

That would clear the top of the forum AND allow things to be in 1,2,3 order.

 ;)
Great idea, boss! ;D

I think that's awesome.

Are you still thinking of creating more streamlined tutorials?

ID -
No I wasn't, but only because no new topics have come to the front. If you have a topic you'd like to discuss, or an older thread you are now referring back to over and over, then I can link to them in the "Everything" thread.

I agree. Nice job Mr. W!

I still, however, think the OAL topic should be rewritten to streamline the info.

Wobbly you are Da man!  That is exactly what I envisioned.   

I think that it will help novices get up to speed and cleans up the forum nicely.

If we ever meet,  I'll buy the beers!

Cheers,
Toby

No need for all that. Just FAX me the beer !  ;D


Clearly no single person can think of every detail or improvement. This is a huge win for the entire CZ reloading community. Thanks to everyone who contributed.

Now back to the original issue: Should the "Max OAL" piece be rewritten ?

Just so everyone knows.... 

Mr ID has been tasked (after volunteering) with streamlining the "Finding OAL" thread with an all-new re-write. ID promises the first unedited version by Spring of 2025, which may or may not include my graphics, various CZ calendar girls, and other provocative photos.

This is rumored to be his magnum opus. (Not to be confused with his 357 Magnum.)

Everyone should feel free to drop ID a Personal Message several times a week encouraging him to 'hurry up every chance he gets', and generally behave as if you are his mother-in-law.  ;D

Speaking for myself, I can tell you that I'm certainly holding my breath.
