Ok, that makes sense :-)

Make my a double expresso, choco-latte

You obviously had not been paying strict attention. :-)

1) Talk About was misnomered to be "unmoderated" meaning it was out of control.

2) 70% of the site's posts went into that one forum, hence 70% of the site's resources went into the same small area.

3) It was impossible to police appropriately, or find anything you needed.

4) Seperate forums -- while making it a little harder on the moderators to sort out posts -- will encourage more speech on a wider variety of subjects.

The new forums have the rules clearly stated for everyone to see (no ambiguity) and spread everything out a little bit.  We will also start pruning dead topics occassionally to make sure the server doesn't become over-burdened.

But, where are the Science and Philisophy Coffee houses?

[T_Bone]

This place rules.

I was cautiously skeptical when they initially changed Xoops versions, but now that I've had a chance to bang around it, and they've tweaked things, I love it!

Owned! :lol:

I FAIL IT! :roflmao:

There's a science & tech forum... I dunno maybe the 'religion' one should have been a Philosophy forum.

Ah, I'll have a double espresso.


Sooooo....how about a new xoops module which lists all new posts in CH&talkabout?  :-P
