Daniel -
I understand. But as you will find with experience, posts to this Forum are "threaded". This means that there is one topic per thread (generally the thread title), all posts in a thread appear in order of posting, and posts on different topics do not appear in that thread. And when there is a new post in a given thread, the name of the thread is shown in BOLD to signify something new. So if anyone is interested in your roof-sag problem, for instance, they will find all of the posts on that topic in the original thread. No need for you to post in a different thread. And if someone is not interested, he/she simply skips over the entire thread, and doesn't have to wade through irrelevant posts in some other thread.
The Forum is not organized like Facebook, where all posts seem to be shown in whatever order they were received, mixed in with all the others, and there is little if any connection to past posts on the same topic.
