This awesome site has lots of topic sections for interests, there should be a cooking interests section...for recipe exchanges, questions, help, etc! I love to cook and bake. :)

This awesome website already has a forum for Health, Fitness, and Sports.

Threads related to diets, food, and healthy meals have already been started there.

Most have "fallen to the bottom" due to lack of interest.

What my post was about has NOTHING to do with that. Not ALL recipes might be considered exactly "healthy" or whatever. I am just talking about a cooking/baking section in general. And considering I have a severe and crippling forms of fibromyalgia and arthritis, sections on web sites dealing with "fitness" and dealing with going to gyms and being a gym rat and such topics hold no interest for me. Thanks but no thanks. I am a proud chunky girl (and chunky due to multiple health problems, none of which are weight related btw, as I'm not chunky cause I sit around and stuff my face all day...its medical related due to illness and side effects of medications and treatments). However, I just thought a cooking interests section would be fun that didn't HAVE to fit into a health section. I personally think that would be stupid. I'm sure not everyone on here is a vegan, vegetarian, etc. Though I make dishes of ALL kinds. I have a rare form of Crohns Disease so I have to be careful what I eat so I do tend to alter recipes and make them a little more on the healthy side so I don't get as sick when i eat. But again, this wouldn't be a section related to health and fitness. It is a HOBBY/INTERESTS section. There is a big difference.

Whoa! Don't flame the messenger, kid!

I'm just pointing out what is already known about this website by the general membership.

If you think that your idea is important, then contact Alex. He's the owner of this website, and the only one who can make any alterations to it.

In my 5+ years as a WP member, I've not known Alex to make any changes, or to even acknowledge suggestions for change.

So, good luck with that!

I was just making a general post. I thought a forum is what posting was for. My mistake. Thanks for making a newcomer feel quite stupid and unwelcome. With members like you, I can't imagine there are so many members here. I will definitely be rethinking my stay here. Thanks, thanks for nothing.
