(( forum moderator sticks her head in and wags finger several times))
New and Noteworthy Forum exists to give newly discovered, good writers a place to get a nod....discussions on what the purpose of NH is belong elsewhere, thank you very much.
While we're at it, let's keep to a general guideline of
new as in joined Epinions in the last couple of months or
under read as in 1000 member reads or under. Not a hard and fast rule, but, goes with the spirit of the forum.
And I now close the thread....anyone who'd like to discuss when to NH (for the 99 billionth time

) is welcome to take the discussion over to the ED forum, as long as we aren't talking about whether to NH a specific person or not.
