    Quote from Kalosyni

    Notable Epicureans, including Epicurus, Metrodorus,

    Can we add Apollodorus to this list? I cannot figure out how.

    Thanks Bryan. In terms of setting up subforums, an administrator (Probably me or Kalosyni) will need to do that.

    Let us know who else might be good to add and we'll do it, or at the very least set up a single thread for each one under a "general" section.

    We'll get that done.

    Kalosyni thanks for adding that. Bryan, those names are supposed to be in roughly date order, with Epicurus at the top and the newest names at the bottom. Where would you locate Apollodorus? Let us know and we will reorder.

    Thank you, moving Apollodorus just one down -- under Dionysus of Lamptrai -- should work for now.

    Also Leontion, an original member, should be closer to the top of the list, around Polyaenus, and just after her should be Colotes.

  • Kalosyni June 28, 2025 at 6:21 PM

    Changed the title of the thread from “Locating the Proper Forum to Post Your Questions and Comments” to “Locating the proper forum for posting questions”.
  • Kalosyni June 29, 2025 at 3:28 PM

    Moved the thread from forum Welcome to Our New Members! to forum Community Standards and Rules.

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com

What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:

  • First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
  • Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
  • Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
