Expecting to revive the discussions in the forums, we decided to create a new board, where discussions could happen, but not in such a strict way as in debate club. What we thought would revive discussions by leaving people less intimidated actually shattered the existing conversations as the boards fragmented discussion and people got either confused or unwilling to post.
To revive these discussions by streamlining the process of making a new topic, we want to merge the "Topical Discussions" and "Debate Club" into a single "Discussions" board. As, unlike the other changes so far, this is not easy to undo in case it is not willingly accepted, we want to be sure most people agree.
Give your opinion in the poll and comment if you have a different opinion of what should be done to these boards.

i like the distinction...lets leave it alone. debate club always descends into a messy morass of moronic mediocre minds mudslinging and maligning one another. topical discussion is always more peaceful and easygoing. leave it the way it is.

That was why we were thinking of merging both. By making a more "peaceful" Discussion forum, people wouldn't be as aggressive as they are in Debate Club, but still be able to do more serious discussions (without the aggressiveness) as it is not possible nowadays on Topical Discussion. Perhaps merging Topical Discussion with Anything and Everything is a good idea. |

anything and everything is too non-serious and debate club is too serious. topical discussion is the perfect balance.

Topical Discussion is too weird to categorize and doesn't deserve distinction. Looking at the threads in there, they're all perfectly suitable in A&E. I just don't get it. Merge it with A&E.

If it is okay for everyone, I'll prevent the creation of new threads (but still allow replies) on Topical Discussion. Then I'll check one by one where each thread belongs whit proper time. As we only have 1 page of threads, it will not be hard, most of them will go to Anything and Everything anyway. Then I'll rename "Debate Club" "Discussions".
Tell me what you think.
