As the title says, is there a way to filter out Hollywood threads in the "New Posts" section?
We do this in many cases of similar/identical threads. If the confusion is around HHN threads, all you have to look for in the title to know the difference is if it says HHN '17 (USH) or HHN 27 (UOR).I think a more clear distinction between Cali and FL threads would fix this issue, such as specifying the park in the thread title.
Maybe there should be a naming convention for ALL threads-- like a three letter prefix or suffix on the title (USH/USF/IOA/BGT/SWO/etc.)
Since most people use those abbreviations for the park names just adding them to a title (USH- Halloween Horror Nights 2017 or Halloween Horror Nights 2017 - USF)
It would eliminate the confusion that I think many people have when they open a thread and can't figure out which park is being discussed.

There is not. I understand if you do not want to see coverage for one side, especially when it's outside of your interests, but there's going to have to be some understanding and compromises made when it comes to seeing posts pop up. Just ignore it. This is a community, a larger one outside of just Orlando now - and vice versa for the USHForums crew. Everything won't be for everyone, but at least there is something for everyone.
Which leads me into the general USH vs UOR stuff, so forgive me for getting on a soap box for this one....(and this isn't aimed or meant to pick on you, Joel.)
Since the merger, I've seen petty complaining about it. Just this weekend, the vlogstruction video we just did saw comments like "not USH - thumbs down". I mean, really? IU, nor any other website for that matter, isn't tailor-made specifically for everyone. I think we've been extremely fair in covering both resorts; so at this point, I'm just going to be blunt and say deal with it and get over it.. I'm tired of it. It's ridiculous. They're the same company for crying out loud. The USH vs UOR "battle" (and I'm using battle sarcastically as possible) is worse than the stupid Disney vs Universal crap. Again, everything won't be for everyone, but at least there is something for everyone.
As far as thread naming -
I understand the confusion the HHN threads can cause so we will look into it, but literally every other thread has the name of the park underneath them. If you can't bother to spend an extra second to look, that's on you guys.

Didn't mean to open up a can of worms with this one, just wanted to see if there was a quick way to see newest posts for one side or the other. As @scott_walker said, I also enjoy reading up on both coasts but sometimes when I'm in a time crunch at work I like to catch up on one side (or the other).

17 = HollywoodI was just thinking this and was about to create a thread. It's annoying and frustrating seeing a thread called "HHN '17 - The Shining", clicking on it and it being for Hollywood. I don't care what happens in Hollywood. That's why I joined "Orlando United" and not any other California parks focused forum.

17 = Hollywood
27 = Orlando
