    Re: Intellectual Discussion, and what to do about it

    Just nuke ID and make Meier a supermod. TFF doesn't have enough activity to warrant sectioning stuff off like that anymore; it's taking up space on the index. No amount of moderation will change that. The one paragraph minimum (which != smarter posts) is almost pointless given our regulars' posting habits. They make one paragraph posts about soda, so I think it'll be alright.

    Edit - Looooccooooo:

    It might sound nice having a "playful" forum and a "serious" forum, but I guarantee that it throttles activity more than it helps. People have been expressing for a long time now that ID feels too inaccessible because of how "smart" it comes off as. They just end up avoiding it... like how some people avoid GC because it looks like 4chan (is a "fun" forum), and how people avoid Word Games because it looks like TFF from 2000. Without those labels, you won't scare off people.

    It'd be nice to have more than the same 5 people giving their take on an "ID" subject.
