This is a discussion on Forum Improvement Ideas within the Olicious Life Suggestion Box forums,----- Can you think of ways we can make this forum better?
Tell us what they are, and we'll do our ...
what about an FGW Marketplace? Kinda like craigslist and kijiji but on here so us FGW members can buy/sell between us??? Just a thought after I had some ladies who mentioned on my journal that they want to sell their suits....
i am one that would not like to see wet wolf around here. he is half of what drove me away from FA to begin with. and can i be frank for a minute? i sometimes feel like this is FA part 2. and i would like to see the two sites be totally seperate. i know alot of us right now are originally from there, but this site will get huge, it has great potential, and alot of those people will not be from there. so all the references to FA will be lost on them. so i guess my suggestion for this site is to make sure it is its own identity. make it unique and special in its own way. it will find its grove soon, i know it takes time.
KelBel...I hear what you are saying, but a lot of us old FA girls are using coaches and plans from FA. I am not sure how exactly we can totally seperate. Do you have any ideas?

love the "you're not alone" section!
just read the home page "Celebrating You" and "Our Mission".... then you will know why this website is 100% original and has NEVER existed anywhere in this form and intention.

um not really.. lol.. the only thing i can think of is just not make reference to it. lets say i get my plan from a coach on FA. in my journal here i would post what i did that day and so forth but not make any mention of FA.
if i wanted to, i could journal my whole contest prep and not once mention who my coach is or where i am getting my info from. i could make it seem like this is the only site i journal on and make it seperate from any other forum i am on.
so i guess that is the way to do it. while you are on here, pretend there is no FA. pretend we all just happen to know each other already or just met on here. pretend this is the only site you are on (whether it is or isnt). i understand the occational link or reference to pictures or articles, that is inevitable. but other than that we need to make this site number one, not a side bar to other forums.

Once you read those you will totally understand.
sorry let me clarify.. i am not getting that feeling from this sites pages or its admin. i am getting it from the members on here. i totally get what the creaters of this site are trying to accomplish and i think they are doing a great job.

I have to agree with you - I want it to be totally separate... most of us are here because we really respect Olesya...
I have to say I almost completely stopped posting on FA due to wet wolf and if he is on here I do not want to post if he comes across the same way... It's a personal opinion of course but I do not feel his way of speaking to people is what most of us need. And I do not need someone to make me feel inferior because he can... I don't play that game... not at all...
I have a very negative opinion of him - I am glad he is helping some people - just don't want him on here...
NOTE: After posting this I have been told he is on here - so while it does not change my opinion, I guess until I see otherwise I will stick around!

i'll just shut my mouth now.
Oh, I totally understand what you're saying, hon. I do agree with you, too--this place will be huge soon, and I don't want anyone to feel left out because we're all making references to FA constantly.
Thanks for posting that, it makes a lot of sense.
One more thing: I don't want any of you to ever feel like you've gotta "shut" your mouths! Ya'll gotta speak up around these parts...we're all about YOU ladies, remember?!
I think after awhile the references to FA will diminish. Right now this site is new & its where we know each other from, but hopefully we will all be able to give something else/more to this site that we didn't on FA.
I recognize a lot you from FA but there are only maybe 2-3 people that I actually know, so it will be like we are just getting to know each other. I don't think I ever came in contact with Oleysa for what ever reason but I am now.
Oh. I didn't realize! I'm so sorry, I guess I was oblivious to these sentiments toward WW! That was not my intention at all, but I'm glad we're now discussing it.
I have to agree with Epona - I mean, I wasn't really THAT close with anyone from FA. I feel like I'm just getting to know people here on this site. And I really do feel a big difference; it's more... open. And accessible. And more personal.
