Yep, Ning isn't as sophisticated as some VBoards you may have participated in. This is meant to be more of a local social network that has a forum aspect to it. I find this frustrating, too. But, here are 2 suggestions we'll probably be putting in an orientation discussion soon:<br />

When you select the "Forum" tab, choose "My Discussions," for a list of only the ones you've posted in. The right column will show you the last time a post was made to that discussion and who made it. If it's not you,…
