We've got a Bill one, a Corrie one, a Home and Away one, a Neighbours one..

IMO we need one for ED and EE. But there's no point in starting either unless we've got lots of support.

What do you all think?

There's no need I don't think. People just start loads every day about different things to do with particular soaps, and we would get lost I think if they were all in the same big thread.

It would be a bit weird to start a giant thread just for the sake of it ....

Though I do see your point...

EE has been started on numerous occasions but people want to talk about it so much it would never work and you couldn't confine it all to one thread.

I like the way it's set out. Example - a new thread for each episode for people to leave their comments. Becuase someone might come on two days later and decide to comment on an episode from another date, so will post in the particular thread, but if all the episode comments were in one big thread then it would be hard to follow, because while were talking about tonight's EE episode, someone could want to talk about the Chrissie saga.

And there is a whole section devoted to soaps here. So there's no need to have one packed, over crowded thread. Just start new ones when you want. I like it like this, and one of the main reasons I joined was because of that.

Does anyone ever think the forum should be divided into individual soaps though?

I would hardly call 'unhappy father' a Corrie thread. It's more of a cult. Whenever I go in there, Corrie is the last thing on their minds.

Actually the main thing on their minds, is Chris Finch or Bruno Langley.....

But if they want the threads there they can ahve it, one thread doesn't bother me. I have actually posted in there occasionally......

No way, it would ruin it completely for me. That is one of the charms of this forum. It's mixed and you can have threads regarding all soaps etc.

I agree. Sometimes I think: ARGH, this would be so much easier if the forums were split!

But mostly I think that when I see that blasted Unhappy Father Todd thread!

It is mainly the smaller soaps that have the large threads, and it really is a good idea having it done that way. I remember what it was like before the Big Family Affairs Thread and the others how annoying it would be if you were a fan of the show and there would be no threads on page 1 to do with this show.

I don't watch FA anymore anyway!

Nope. All in one is better than a forum for each soap.
