New Forum Vote: "Serious Issues & Debates"

[James]

Do we want a new forum for "Serious Issues & Debates" ???

[Sophie]

i answered no to this. i really dont think there should be as i think it will cause more tension between people.

 

at the moment we have topics, like chit chat shite, and everyone seams to be falling out about stuff! the topic then either get closed or deleted, so i really dont see the point of a forum for debates!

No prizes for guessing how I voted.

I think it'b quite interesting hearing people's opinions on matters.I mean im not gonna start kicking off because I disagree with someone,but sometimes its good sport,and remember folks it can be fun and educational!

Im hardly gonna sit here though creaming myself over someone's views on the argentine economy collapse,but then again something more stimulating(nothing personal here) than the colour of peeps mousepads,hello Im pissed posts or whether or not someone takes it up the arse could be a nice diversion.

I suspect Im not supposed to post on this,cos its a straight poll,but,well there you go.

I disagree I think people will take the topics in this new forum seriously, and when I say serious issues I dont mean "should I break up with my bird" I mean SERIOUS issues and debates.

why not... if it's not working out after a month or so, you can kill it, right...

Thats what i said to James, if it doesnt work u can always scrap it!! Simple as!!

[James]

one more question - who should moderate this new forum ?????

[Claire DC]

You!!

[Scream]

how about either no one or just you? That way no one could delete a post or something, which can prove bloody annoying, as that really fecks me off when a mod does that.

Scream, no mods deleted posts! If we did then we would post to let you know why! James let everyone have the option of deleting their own posts but some people took the piss out of it! For example, if you started a post and then there were say 20 replies and you then decided you no longer like your comments or the subject in general you could delete it taking every single one of those 20 posts with it! To answer your question thats where the posts were disappearing to so now that option has had to be taken off and hopefully you will no longer see posts disappear - not from me and I can confidently say not from the other moderators either!
