I see you got your wish, verbouge.

We'll see how well it takes.

Even though they separated the "Classic Racquet" forum from the "Racquet" forum, old racquet talk still comes up in the main forum.....

Since we are in the changing mode, how about adding a new forum to discuss any grieve or problem we may have, it could from a simple personal problem to a social issue, it could even include some political discussions, maybe we could call it "Rant & Raves"? ... just a sugestion

Didn't we just have "Rant & Raves" removed recently because it was out of control ?

I think our prayers have been answered. "String and Stringing" is now just "Strings". "Stringing Machines" is now "Stringing Techniques/Stringing Machines".

Indeed, guys and dolls! Our long national nightmare is over! Oh wait, that was something else..... Whatever the case, there actually has been some highbrow super duper intellectual discussion, but that was mere prologue. Those of us who are nerdy enough to talk about the minutiae of stringing machines, are ever the more nerdy to talk about the minutiae of stringing techniques. Heaven for a few, Ambien for most.

Thanks for joining in and making it happen!

HURRRRAAAAYYYY!!!!!

Now come to think of it, I kinda liked it the old way.............

Dave

Dude, like, um, what is the softest poly to hybrid with weedeater line? My arm's totally killing me.

And, um, like, will a Wise Tension Head fit on my work bench?

Do you think Federer or Nadal would win on Dancing With the Stars? I would TOTALLY watch that!

Separate them, it'll be a lot more efficient.

Sweet. I'm glad this worked out, and that (it seems) everyone is happy. This is actually one of the reasons I enjoy being part of the TW community so much, people are reasonable, and we have admins that are willing to listen to the community. Props to Spencer and the TW Staff, as well!

I think that this is a very good solution, and it already proved worth it because some good discussions were entered already.

Thanks TW staff for listening and Dave for bringing it up.
