New category!

Jonathon I guess what I was thinking, and I hope it lines up with what Chef thinks, is have a category for only recipes. Maybe call it MEATGISTICS COOKS or whatever. Have sub-category’s like soups, sausage, deserts, you get the idea. People put the recipe under the sub category it fits. The only thing is that we put ONLY the recipe and not get sidetracked like we do by starting with giving a recipe for sauerkraut hot dish that turns into a conversation about my kid in collage. (I’m as guilty as the next guy) There, I will get off my box now!

Jonathan, is there any way that all the comments be removed from the recipe section and just have the recipe?

I could see some value in being able to print out a recipe with some selected comments

[Chef]

kyle This is in line with what I originally thought the category would be.

[Jonathon]

Okay, so, I can get on board with that. Changing User Recipes so only original posts live there, no ability to add comments to a post? Austin will probably go for that, I will let everyone know.

[Chef]

Jonathon I absolutely see where this would be useful, but many of the comments are spins on the recipe or feedback as to their success/shortcomings.

Not sure if it is a programable factor, but if the comments spill over to a subcategory, that would be great.

In terms of censoring, don’t we have enough of that in our society already?

Jonathon In your vision will you allow the up-vote and down-vote option to remain so people can offer some feedback on the recipe once they have tried it??

Will you also allow some commenting capacity by the OP so they (the creator) can make adjustments on the original recipe if a PM feedback hit on a good point. I mean not to the original recipe but as an add-on modification or alternative variation? Original recipe should stand as originally written and any modification done in comments by OPs

[bocephus]

It wasn’t my intent for censorship, I was just trying to have just recipes where you didn’t have to sort through a bunch of comments, as we all know a lot of times we get off track and all kinds of different things come up. I do see how a comment of an addition or subtraction to the recipe would be useful, always looking to improve on any recipe, I think that is what cooking is all about, find a recipe that you think you would like and then make it to your own tastes.

Jonathon Why are there SO Many non recipes in the “User Recipe” category?

[Ridley Acres]

Jonathon Austin I wonder if it would make sense for the poster to be able to toggle if they would like to allow replies to posts. I could see how it would be beneficial for recipes and processes to have this and any replies would be a new topic RE:old topic

[Jonathon]

Ridley Acres That might or might not be possible but it is a good idea. I think it will end up being no replies though. @DennyO Because no one has been moderating it from Walton’s end. We are going to be making some changes so it looks all uniform and then nothing aside from that will be able to be posted here.
