Hi commenters.
(Incidentally there have been a few small changes made to the folder order, as of early this morning.)
The folder order is now:
How this group works
UNSOLVED: One specific book
Suggest books for me
POSSIBLY SOLVED
SOLVED: Adult Fiction
SOLVED: Children's/YA
SOLVED: Non-Fiction
SOLVED: Other
Group suggestions/feedback
Query abandoned by poster
Now we'll never know
Just to chat
Archive
This order was arrived at after the mods discussed what the group's core functions are, and what they aren't. Obviously the UNSOLVED folder is the group's main mission. "Suggest books for me" (formerly known as Requests: for books in general) is a much newer part of the group, but one which has become fairly popular, so we didn't want that sitting near the bottom. The SOLVED threads, while for many people are "finished business," can also be used to search for forgotten books. We do often get queries for books which have already been searched for, and found, and shelved, multiple times. "Just to chat" is near the bottom of the folders because it's not part of the group's core functions.

Ok. Thanks for the thorough update. I can live with it :)
Is the order of discussion folders able to be sorted by a Mod? It feels like they must of been recently changed. Current order: [picture removed now] (those are neatly closed and not annoying but the default for me is they are all open with recent discussions displayed)
Speaking for myself I never look in those folders. If I want to participate in current hunts, those folders are annoying to get past. Because they are all "open" with the top 20+/- discussions needing to be scrolled past.
