I think we are faced with a choice -
Do we allow News items to be posted in the Lounge and have good conversations about recent events? OR Do we embrace our inner anal mod and move News items to the News Forum, where more than likely they will get 2 or 3 responses and sit there, dying a slow, painful death? After you answer that, should we really, in all seriousness, keep the News Forum? There's been this concept of initiating more Lounge conversations for a long time now. Perhaps with a potential removal of the News Forum, we can infuse more conversations and thoughtful conversation into the Lounge. Are we being stubborn by keeping the News forum? Just a few things to think about. |

To be honest, we probably could eliminate the News Forum altogether. I mean, a lot of the stuff that does get posted there isn't really hard news anyway. If we do keep it though, then the topics should be moved there. Either have it and use it, or not, but don't let's just leave it there to fester.
Sigh... it was such a good idea at the time. |

At this rate, there are way too few meaningful topics without letting the news-related ones stay. |
