No offense meant to Kaigun Fan. But this is I believe the fourth post on the death of Don Lopez. Since HGUCSU has been making his mostly rubbish posts, noteworthy items have been getting pushed down the WIX slide further and further to the point that if you have 10 minutes to look for posts and/or reply, you can't find the posts. I don't know how to fix it, but I would say that the utility of this site has been compromised by recent activity. No offense is intended to anybody who posted on Don Lopez- I am just illustrating how important or "priority" information gets lost in all this crap going on right now. Ideas?

Hello,

Sorry - no idea that his obit was already posted. As you said there has been goofy posts lately taking priority - not good. Hopefully, this will be fixed.

Crosspost Ahoy:

There's a magical little thing called a search. That is also only the third topic about Lopez's passing. The first one posted was on March 4th. The last reply was on March 5th. Approximately 150 different threads have been replied to or posted since the last time someone replied to that topic. 17 of those threads ar HGUCSU's. 15 are Jack Cooks. Plenty of other people have 4 or 5 in that time span.

HGUCSU hasn't compromised the utility of the site. As time passes and people don't reply to topics, they get pushed further down the page.
