Changing the "Search" feature so that the default is "Search by Post Time". This change alone will avoid many of the duplicate threads!

Now there is a change that I wholeheartedly support.

What? And take away the sole purpose of life for a half dozen or so thread cops?

That's cruel.

I have two main suggestions:

1. Change the Search feature so that the default is "order by post time" rather than "order by relevance."

2. Have a separate "room" (non-smoking) for the regular, ongoing, daily forum threads: Hobbit Hole, Word for the Day, etc. When I go to General Interest (aka "Chat") and try to look for the latest individual messages, my screen is filled with Hobbit Hole posts and it's hard to find anything else.

I second that! I also suggest placing the "POST" icon somewhere else other than next to the "EDIT" icon.
