carlie Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Hi there, I'm starting to notice how threads begin. They are listed with a certain topic to start the thread and before you know it, the thread has encompassed 4 or 5 more topics. In other words the original topic has totally been changed. I feel it would be to our benefit to try and start a different thread when you notice how much off topic the original thread has become. jmho, carlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berta Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Yep- I am with you Pete- on that one- I probably get 'tangential' as the shrinks say- alot here- I started a new Agent Orange topic. Actually sometimes I think would it be helpful if some of us just focused on our areas of expertise? I would gladly volunteer to handle and focus on all AO and Nehmer questions- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know when I was looking for help on how to file my claim it helped to read how other individauls coped with dealing with the VA for MST. And when I received my decision then I received help on how to do a Reconsideration vs. DRO...(hope I said that right still get mixed up on all that VA lingo stuff)...so yes Berta that is an excellent idea!!! then if possible it will make searching for answers easier by topic..or disability type questions. hummmmmm anyways... T-Bird your site is international and I am sure has become a valuable tool for any veteran who is in need God Speed mt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
carlie
Hi there,
I'm starting to notice how threads begin. They are listed with a certain topic
to start the thread and before you know it, the thread has
encompassed 4 or 5 more topics.
In other words the original topic has totally been changed.
I feel it would be to our benefit to try and start a different thread when
you notice how much off topic the original thread has become.
jmho,
carlie
