I don't want to be all mom like or bossy (CLINTON GROUP)

but it might be helpful to remember to mark our OP's with something that signifies that the OP is a group post?

I know people were doing it a lot before, which is why I started. Might help people keep from wandering in when they wouldn't have otherwise since we end up on the latest page.

I thought a reminder might be a good idea.

a lot of peeps are doing it. but, it's a good reminder for newer folks too

I put mine at the bottom of my Message text nice and clear.. If they ignore it and post anyway.. I just block them.

It's a simple enough thing to do, and keeps us from yelling at people who really didn't know where they were posting.

I thought it was such a great idea, I was glad to see the group doing this when I first came back to DU! It is one of the little thoughtful things I love about DU at it's best.
