The parent/adult relationship thread that was just getting started in the Symposium didn't make the transfer. I've seen MH in the Manwe thread condense everyone's posts from that thread that got left behind into one post of her own. That's one method that could be used. Another is one person posting each of everyone's posts separately. I doubt we could rely on everyone transferring their own post in the correct order...it would take too long anyway. So I was wondering about people's preferred method: list all the posts in one post or post them separately.

I reckon just one post per page (otherwise the post gets too long). No one is going to notice after the thread gets some momentum up, and that's the easiest method.
