Yeah, it’s somewhat of a downside to the way I’m restructuring the site, but there will be no more forums per se, no single word to affix to an article. They will instead by replaced by the keyword system. Still trying to come up with a way to display a useful list of keywords under articles in the listing page. Some kind of weighted system, because we don’t need to see all 500 keywords some clown added to a thread, but we want to see something, and it should be relevant.
I’m working on it.
No complaints. Love the site.
The Forum designation helps when searching to see which Forum a new post should go in. If you search “teacher sex student” and you will see that moderators push most of them into Chat.
I have learned (the hard way) to do a quick search before posting every news story in the News Forum, instead of the Chat forum.
How about a red NEW POSTS TO YOU at the top of each thread? Currently there is simply a PINGS button.
We have to go back to the main page to see if we have new posts to us. Or we can click on the PINGS button only to find out that we have none.
Just an idea.
