feels even more dead to me. non of the non shit post political stuff stays on the first page


I think we need two Off-Topics: Off Topic and OT Current Affairs/Politics/Religeon

OT Current Affairs can be put behind a sign-in for those that enjoy debating/arguing, leaving normal Off Topic freely available for everyone to read and enjoy.

What is with people and wanting new forums?

We're already so spaced out per capita - it doesn't make any sense. If anything, there should be less forums.

You guys know we're already at less than 1 poster per forum if we go by active forumers, right?

If we add forums we might be one person per section.

But aren't we worth it; aren't we worth every bit of that time the Jmods put in to making these forums fresher and up to date and more user friendly??

Michelle of course we are worth it. I can only go with what we have right now, and what we have is too little population with far too many places to go. People leave because the place is inactive, but the place is inactive because we are all separated by homeforum.

Yeah I'd love to have every section have activity but, it is literally impossible due to our dwindling numbers. The only viable solution right now is LESS subforums - not more.

There is a bit more to the reason people leave; there is a lot more than the forums that need changing.

Edit: I don't want more forums, I want the forums upgraded, in saying this yes I have suggested and would like a subsection for News, current affairs, political discussions.

^ That I agree with. I'm sick to death of people being anal on the OT and causing it to get hidden from people who haven't logged in. The vitriol is actually getting boring.


Then turn it into a joke. At least you will get a good laugh.

Anyway on the topic of forums

You can still separate news, politics and current events ans remove other subsections. I actually suggested it before on the quoted thread on the next page.

(This was in websites and forums months ago, I got the impression no one wanted politics, but maybe someone else also made a suggestion)
