It shouldn't do that anymore...

When I first included it into the forum, I realized how insane it could get...

Guess how many places these news stories are coming from?...

3...(UPI, NPR, CNN Science)...

That was it...Imagine if I included another; let's say; 27...(and I could've...there are hundreds of outlets I could've used)...

We'd have seen 10 TIMES the number of news stories popping out...

Since we're so new, we're going through a "trial and error" phase...

I try to find new modifications and see if they'll improve the quality of the forum...

Not all are home runs...

At first, I was looking for a new member
Quote:
"Hi, everyone!"
post from the Wrinkler.
Then, I was like this guy is posting news stories without comments.

Don't explain it to me-I get it now (viewed the announcements re the news threads).
Some of the stories are interesting. But I think slower/fewer is better; I responded to a few. But I find it hard to keep track.

Plus it looks like there is not much activity on this site when you first log in.
