Hi Maeve!
Welcome!
For someone that is not used to MSN groups and particularly in this case where there is an extraordinary amount of information relating to different subjects , many times contained in the same article, I can understand why this group may appear to be difficult to navigate.
In most cases MSN Groups is used as a forum, much the same way as 3 A. This thread is an example of of one thread and I have 'allocated the 'General' section to Maddie related discussions.
If you click the top of the page where it says 'General' it will show you the list of threads ONLY in the General section.
If you click below the 'General' where is says 'All Messages' you will be taken to a page listing every 'board'...Either choose the board that interests you or go to the bottom of the page and click on 'See All Messages' and you will be taken to a page that shows every message thread listed in order of last date posted. This message will show on top and any threads that I have updated ...regardless of the 'board' will show below.
I have tried to focus on making this a 'reference' group adding more articles as they become available into their corresponding boards.
The left menu shows the basic 'boards...PEOPLE..INFO...INVESTIGATION etc.
If you wish to look for articles regarding a particular 'person' (eg. Kate...Gerry...Clarence etc) Click on PEOPLE and look for the appropriate link. I continually add new articles relating specifically to that person.
If you would like to see articles relating to a 'group' of people (eg 'witnesses'..'PJ'..'Tapas 7'..Click on the link and you can view all the articles . I have tried to make every thread heading discernible as to which person the thread is about.
If you wish to look at DNA articles or any informative articles relating to anything regarding the investigation , including BEACHY's messages, criminal profiling articles, Law etc then click on INFO and chose the appropriate link on that page or look in the side menu where it will open up a list of the info related thread links.
I am still working hard to get the site 'in order' but in the meantime there are more than 1,000 articles which can be found relatively easily if you follow the appropriate links on the left hand menu.
Check the SITE MENU to get an idea what is contained in each board.
Many links are still being 'constructed' and it is an ongoing process to get it all in order.
I realise most people do not realise this 'reference' board is available...but once you understand how to navigate it can make searching for older articles on a specific subject, fairly simple.
At least , that is what I am attempting to make available....but its a long job!
Thanks Maeve...Hope that helps!
