I agree with everything Poultry Guy wrote, except that I would maintain a breeder\'s list and have it as subsection of marketplace. I know when I was new, I was desperately searching for an Ameraucana breeder and I struck gold, but it took two months of searching.

Guest:
My point I\'m trying to get across on this thread is to create more categories and sort into them what we have in the current Ameraucana Marketplace.  Then, moderate all the forums and move off topic posts over to the correct category so that it doesn\'t take months to find something.

Just the other day, yet again, I was looking page after page for a single post that has occurred within the last few months and I couldn\'t find it.  I gave up since this single line of posting without any organization whatsoever just frustrates me to no end.

A Breeder\'s list is a great idea, but it doesn\'t belong in a forum.  It is a relatively static entitiy that would not require posting.  There are other ways to implement a breeders list.

HI John,

I would really like to see more discussions here on this board. I find it easy to use and I like how it is set up. I do not think it will take away from the discussions on the Sharing Place site.

Thanks, Laura

Guest:
I think that some really great ideas have been put forth.
   I do believe that a \"member\'s only\" area would be a mistake.  I don\'t care to join every forum that I may visit, so when I run up against limited access, I just leave.  Also, how better to promote the breed, then to make the breeders more accessible?
  Years ago, when I was trying to pick up this breed, information was anything but forthcoming.  I was looking elsewhere, at other breeds,  until I met Paul Smith at a show.  He was friendly, and full of information for which I didn\'t have to beg.  We need to make it easy for those people who are looking for birds and information.  I wouldn\'t pay for it, nor would I expect anyone else to do so.  
Just my thoughts....

Regards
Angela Stanley

Poultry Guy,

I agree with your thoughts about the placement of the breeder\'s list. That can be a simple HTML page off the main site and should not be in the forum itself.
