I think it would be insanely beneficial and rockingly awesome if there were a subsection just for the Triads where each Triad has a thread.
It would be an even easier way for everyone to communicate and it would make for easily accessible lines of communication between not only specific Triad members but also between entire Triads.
Thoughts?
Note that below are edits to include my posts in this thread to help people browsing this thread for the first time to be caught up with the status of my suggestion.
[ EDIT: It's not intended to be the main form of communication, folks. It's just a nice, easy way for smaller conversations to be had and different connections to be made. ]
[ EDIT 2 (In response to Breepop): Well, if that is actually a concern, I know for a fact that users can be added to groups and both users and groups can be given specific permissions (even as specific as per-thread). Though, I think that the group to created would be of the 33 volunteers and the permissions would be that only they could actually post and make new threads in the new subsection. I've administrated forums before (in fact, I even administrate one now over at the Minecraft Forums) and I'm quite familiar with how it would work setting that up. I can totally walk someone through the process (and/or volunteer to do it myself if need/want be). ]
[ EDIT 3:
I don't really like that.
That would give the triad-people - who were just lucky to be the ones generated by the random number generator - powers the others, who might've wanted to join as well, don't have.
I don't think that's fair.
This is why I didn't have those two edits initially. The thing is, some people (probably Triads members and admins) will think it'd be bad to have everyone be able to post in Triads threads, but some other people (people who didn't get in) might feel left out.
If there is a gentle compromise, I'm all for it.
Actually, honestly, I was just hoping for a section so that all the Triad talk would be easy to find (rather than bunched in one thread or scattered throughout other sections). ]
[ EDIT 4:
ALSO
I like the idea of a Triad section, but not as a form of communication for the Triads... like, just general discussion relating to Triads, where anyone can post. Of course, a certain Triad could make a thread for themselves, just to be like "OH YEAH WE ROCK HERE IS OUR TRIAD FLAG WOOT" and crap, and other people could reply to that.
At the very least, THIS is precisely what I am suggesting. Cool beans. ]
