Update on this since, agreed, it really was an irritating issue: the Tech Team installed a new search engine that supports 3 character searches now, hooray!

hello! thought i might put a suggestion towards the awesome mods. :-) when a models thread is made it is usually stated what agency he/she is with (when the poster adds it to the first post made in that thread). obviously when the model has been around for a while or is popular the thread will start getting a lot of pages. sometimes models change agencies so if looking on the agency posted on the first page, the model obviously isn't listed on the website anymore.

what i'm trying to say is would it be possible to update the first page with current agencies, such as a pinned post at the top of the thread?

hope i got that out properly, let me know if it's hard to understand haha.

^I'm not a SC mod, but I don't think that's possible. Besides taking a lot of time, it's not an easy job to follow every time a model changes agencies...I think if I eventually notice a model I follow switches agencies, I can easily add that information to the first post of her/his thread, but I don't believe we can guaranteed that for all models' threads. My two cents.
There's a Models Switching Agencies thread, hope it will be helpful for you.

yes after posting that i thought that it would be a hard task to do that for a lot of models on this forum, considering just how many models are in the femmes thread alone haha!

thanks for the link and the response.

Is it possible to move threads on costume designers to the entertainment forum? eg Colleen Altwood is on Art & Design forum but it only has 3 pages, I think it´s because no one knows it´s there.

Colleen Atwood.

We would like to keep costume designers in the Art & Design area so that people who are interested in design can find them.

The Sidewalk Café is intended as a sort of recreational area for topics that would otherwise have nowhere to go.

I hope that makes sense.

Would it be possible to change Harper's Bazaar - South East Asian Editions thread to "Harper's Bazaar Worldwide"?

Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Elle, etc. have their own worldwide topics, so I think it would only be fair if the Harper's Bazaar topic was expanded. I know there aren't as many HB editions, but it would be nice to see all of the editions together.

^I don't see any reason why we wouldn't do that I think the reason it was named "South East Asian editions" was because all the other editions got their own thread, but now there are a few new ones from Arabian and Latin American countries, correct?

[blueorchid]

^ Yep, and I believe they're also creating new editions in Europe such as Poland.

[visualoptimism]

love the idea of changing the name to harper's bazaar worldwide! it would great to see them all together and it would be a lot easier to find where to put some of the countries editions haha.

What's up with the Rumor Has It section? Is it being phased out? Honestly, I'm a little scared to post in there now because I don't need a warning. Is this all for legal reasons?

No. We just got rid of the open-ended threads. It will still function the same otherwise.

Your last comment in RHI was deleted as we do not allow unconfirmed pregnancy speculation, it's considered weight talk.

Hope that answered your question?

nope and nope.

we want to move away from the mega-threads and move into more topical newsworthy discussion.

don't worry, i'm sure that if lindsay lohan has a hit and run fatality i'm sure there will be a new thread on it!

some of our mega threads in RHI have been a bit duplicative and contained endless speculation. for example, do we really need 4 threads and over 8,000 posts on whether or not rob pattinson and kirsten stewart are dating?

we are a first and foremost a fashion forum and want to focus on that primarily.

Ok, cool, thanks for answering!
