^ Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The most obivious issue for discussion would be hiring. So why not make a seperate thread so we can all start brain storming ideas. We can also make seperate threads for other things we would like to discuss.

alright, so kiera makes a good point as quoted above. hiring is what everyone disagrees on. lets discuss what we think here.

I think it should be two months. Then at least the people have time to get familiar with the members enough to know about them and whether they're going to stay or not.

Six months is a long time. A lot of us haven't been on for six months. It's rare that people stay a really long time. I mean, I've been here a year and a half and I've seen my share of people leave that were likely to stay. Kathleen for example. She loved CB and she was here for a looong time, but she left unexpectedly. Just because someone's been a member for six months doesn't mean they automatically stay. There's no telling when they actually started posting. I didn't start posting until a month after I joined.
