So far im in agreement with the current system. Keeping the decent topics seperate for when new people come wanting serious discussion makes us look more professional.
Anyone wanting a single-page thing can get it by clicking "view active topics", as mentioned.
My only wonder is why the main forum isnt called "community chat"? We still even call ourselves CC'ers
I hereby propose, that from this point forward we call ourselves "The Super Friends"Quote:

That might make timmy come and post though.
Theres nothing that rolls off the tongue to call us though. Forgotteners? TWFs?
Maybe we can have a lame thing where we all say "TWF" instead of "WTF"
But no matter how hard we try, we can never be as cool as we were when we were CCers. :(
I think we might have to merge the two, I'm afraid
There's four or five topics in the "debate" section that belong in the off topic one, and the political compass thingy has no business in the section with "wots fur dinnah" and the pictures thread.
*sigh*
Or we could tell our admin to discipline himself and others by moving the threads to the appropriate forum. I think there are good long-term considerations to keep the two separated, these should not be shoved aside because people are still used to rules of a place that never really fitted us anyway.Quote:

How on earth did it 'not fit us'?
* keeping in mind of course that there was a hard-core who never got involved in many or even any of the heavier politics/economics/religion type threads and were indeed just there for the lolz.
I am pretty certain a lot of people, while posting in that place, did a lot of self-censuring (in the lolz-section). I know I did.Quote:

And Ziggy answers "Yes"
It's not rocket science.
Maybe we should give Timmeh the power to close threads that are placed in the wrong sub-forum :idea:Quote:

A disturbingly large number of people are mistakenly voting to merge the two topics. In the long view for this place, another point in favor of keeping them seperate is our means of drawing in newcomers. If they go onto the forum from the blog and all they see are the "What are you eating", "What are you listening to", "What are you happy about" etc. threads, they're going to come out with idea that this forum is just like twitter, but less popular.
I also agree with those who said we need to start enforcing this by moving threads posted in the wrong place.
That's just because we don't have an iPhone App. :oQuote:

That, especially when integrated with the blog, has cnvinced me to change my vote.Quote:

This seems good. Community Chat should be in there somewhereQuote:

Well baste my puddings and call me Charlie. Just click it, you'll find it's Goodnight Saigon from Chilly Bowel which has a rather extensive bit with a bunch of beardie hippies brawling they'd all go down on each other.

Seems pretty balanced to me. Sure the Site Discussions will slack off after a while and it's early days still.
I am pleased to see D&D (yes, I am going to call it that) graduate to its second page.
