Yeah, so far so good.

Keep the moderation tight. The lack of it at the old forum was well-intentioned but eventually reduced the forum to unreadable lavender. But of course the creepy deletions, edits and bannings of ATOL were also a failure. Simply shunting threads/posts that ramble OT into unmoderated Hell should be sufficient.
Posters have so far done so, with the exception of a few incidents, and the mods are grateful for it.

Typoon
there is so many threads that one forgets or can not find the right thread to post in
is would be helpful to have, a list, a site with names and links to all threads
so,
when one wants to post a new subject
one can have a look @ the list, and decide where it should be posted
otherwise, duplicate will happen

Not sure how that would be any better that the site index, along with the quick search functions, like "View your posts," and "View active topics."

Re: Suggestions
That sounds nasty, hacky and increasingly expensive to run on a regular basis as the forum grows.
It might be simpler to allow Googlebots to index all the forum topics, if currently disallowed, and use a
site:http://www.onthenatureofthings.net/ [whatever]
search in Google to find what you are after.
For an example of what that gives you, try pasting:
site:http://spengler.atimes.net/ penises
into Google. Five pages. Who knew, right?

Re: Suggestions
Can we change 'Reality' to 'History'? I thought about doing that at Diegetics.
Also, maybe Futurism should be put into Science/Technology/Futurism.

The sections were created to mirror the Diegetics board back when there was a hope that we could easily transfer a backup . . .

Hello again Waxwing, evidently you had NO LUCK in finding something relevant to this new thread.
Some people who constantly display signs of deficit of attention, only have themselves to blame for it.
Did you hear of the new forum rule, that lifetime postings are now to be limited to 9000?
How the hell do those people over there tolerate this kind of diarrheic drivel?

This Newt better be careful or his voice may cause hysterial in girls when he opens his mouth instaed of being calminhg influence so he have to take longer job of serving beast whores in house of whoredom after his 3rd wife leaves him to find peace in her own life
Somebody go give Hockey Dad a heads-up . .
