I hope you will not find it necessary to limit the main forum strictly to news/activism. Some of the best laughs I've had came from posts like "Earworms, Songs that Get Stuck in Your Head" and "Ladies, Learn the Rules".

Those and a few other articles gave me the best insight into the wit and humor of fellow FReepers. I never go to any of the other "channels" here, but I guess I could start if that becomes the only way to see the "lighter side".

Is it a lot of trouble for the Mods to move a post from one board to another? If not, perhaps you could allow a few frivolous posts, and move them if the board gets too full.

I also liked someone's suggestion of posting the titles of threads from the other forums at the bottom of the news/activist page -- Just a thought.

You guys do a really great job and I appreciate all that you do.

Heh.... a system designed to tick off most everyone. "How come mine got moved and this one didn't" is a common victim lament already.

I think the seperate forums work only if they are enforced. And I think the concept of seperate forums is a good one.

I much agree.

I Love the flavor of a town hall; front porch; general store cracker barrel chat sort of flavor to FR.

And, I THINK THAT'S PART OF IT'S GREATEST STRENGTH.

I think the major aims of FR are strengthened by that ROBUST FLAVOR OF FR.
