Lots of new traffic here, which is great on the surface. One assumes more content = better for a message board. That said, some content falls under the misc category, or NSFW, or politics. It seems half the site is for this type of content and half is against.
It has been suggested that site guests only see Ute content, not politics or NSFW and such. Once logged in under that setup users could then filter their content. This is something I’m considering but the custom stuff like that I do is likely only to happen on the home page. Not saying it’s possible for the sub forum menu pages, but not as likely.
Another suggestion is to create an NSFW category, so the posts with “hot chicks” or whatnot don’t pop up on someone’s screen at work. I also wonder if having an NSFW category encourages more of that kind of content.
I’m a bit concerned also about some thread hijacking, a few bitter posts between a few users who don’t seem to get along, and so forth.
Once again I think it’s really important to keep topics in their proper categories. The problem is that some posts cross between Ute/sports and politics, like the stupid legislative audit. Those posts are tough.
I think we are getting to a point where we need to make some choices, and perhaps think about asking for a few moderators. The problem with moderators is that there has to be a setup for them to moderate, which doesn’t exist. 🙂
I’d like some healthy discussion, sans bitching and moaning, about the above.
