Is this for 04 brides or is it for a 'special month'?

i am sorry, but i was reading the other boards and there seems to be some debate over the 03 board-if it is 'just' for september or for 'all' of the 03 brides. i was just wondering if it is the same thing for this board?????

It started a while ago, their were a lot of May girls and they had a May thread going on and it had accumulated over 1000 posts. As a nice thing LIW gave them their own board.

Then their was a huge increase in 2004 brides and we too had over 1000 posts. We all sent LIW FM's and started threads that it would be nice if we had our own board. So Ron being so wonderful gave us our own board.

The 2003 brides wanted a board as well and pleaded to get one so Ron to please the girls and make everyone happy gave them their board.

The storyboard and Slim Down boards are the most recent added boards. We were all talking about books and explained to Ron that it would be nice to have our own board where we can talk about books and not take up wedding space for brides helping brides and things like that. Same thing went with Slim Down, we were all posting about weight loss and weight management and felt it would be easier if we had a board where we can strictly dedicate to weight loss, weight management and all those type of questions.

We've also been pleading with Ron to give us a recipe board because we all have some great recipes and cooking things we would like to share and would find it easier if we had a board to post those kind of things.

May brides had a thread of over 1000 posts, so they got a board, then 2004 brides did the same, so they got a board as well. Next, the September brides had a thread with over 1000 posts, and right about that time, the 2003 thread was added, and I think the September brides thought it was solely for them, while LIW meant it as a 2003/whatever month board. The fact that the board came right when the Sept. brides were expecting their own board was what caused the controversy I guess. But then again, I don't read the 2003 board, I only read it in the beginning, so I could be wrong. Actually, I'm pretty sure they're 'over it' by now.
There hasn't been any controversy on this board because we knew that it was meant for everyone planning a wedding in 2004. I actually don't post much on this board, I stay mainly on BHB.
