    I have looked and looked but I can't locate any place where I can see NEW threads.
    I'd like to join in.

    Not sure about threads. I always just click the “New Posts” button in the menu. A new thread would have new posts so it seems like that should help.

    Here is a screenshot of the main page of the forum (as it appears on my iPad). I circled the new posts link in yellow. Any place that has new posts or new threads says “NEW”, like I circled in red.
    The Blue labels have had recent post, and the grey ones have not had posts for a while.

    This is what it should look like on a computer, although other options are available near the bottom of the page. New threads are started every day. Forums with the blue box (Notices & Announcements, Movies & Entertainment) are ones that have posts that are new to me.

    Imo, we all need to appreciate the extensive background work Ken does to keep SOC working smoothly.

    I meant what I said, Ken. I can only imagine the effort you put in. Although I've had some recent gripes with you I've decided to drop them. Life is too short for quarrels over unimportant things.

    Ya know what? You can give starting a thread a try. Pick a discussion heading, give your idea that fits a title and start a new thread.

    I've tried and tried, usually by trying to like my own posts. I'm thinking of joining under several false identities so that I can like myself multiple times and so get the mass adulation I surely deserve.
