Since I'm not sure if this thing is still being closed at a particular time, I wanted to get in quickly that I very much liked both Lin's and Sunny's posts. I also agree with leaving Politics and Religion. Not only because those topics would go back to Off Topic like they used to and make it something of a quagmire, but I know that for some folks, that is primarily where they post and it's become their own little home for them.

However, along with the decision of 'more lenient' moderation, I think the Wild, Wild West atmosphere in that section has led to some of that spilling to other boards. I think it has caused confusion because personal attacks seem to be ok there and supposedly they aren't on other boards. (Not that I honestly believe for a second that is the atmosphere that we have now, because is certainly isn't, and frankly, that part sucks.)

If I'm getting this right (according to VAA's statement above that not all bells and whistles that folks would like to be added will be) should a 'new to BDSM' forum be added, there will be three standards of how people can treat each other around the place, depending on what forum they are on? Best of luck with that. Considering most people don't read guidelines for sections now, I foresee a heck of a lot of gold notes having to be sent to explain the difference and a lot of confused posters.

I do want to thank VAA for the opportunity to make suggestions and for the chance to say what I personally think needs to be tuned up. For the most part, I felt there were intelligent ideas going, even if I didn't care for some of them.

As far as I am concerned personal attacks are not okay.

Thanks VAA. something that increases your workload (because yeah I'm fairly sure you guys have lives ) is a non-starter for me. Frankly there are other things that are higher on my wish list. Increasing the workload of the techies (visions of pale dudes who haven't seen sun in years) is also a non-starter for me.

I do want to thank you for asking us what we would like to see changed, added, whatever. The only other board I've been on that asked is Fet and they seem to ask more than they do. Even if this stuff never gets done it's nice that you asked.

Im gonna do what I can, lol....I just can't commit(now someone run start a thread about female dominants that can't commit....

lol)

As to what might or might not happen, I have committed to nothing one way or the other, as far as any specific ideas. There will also be good ideas that for one reason or another, may never get implemented.

I do find it somewhat telling, hopefully to members also, that it is apparent what happens to derailments a lot of times when we DON'T step in, and how often the subject matter of the thread is totally lost, and so is the participation of many members that posted previously on the same thread.

I think this thread has run its course, and am now closing it. ( Ok, I actually SLEPT :) and then took a bit to get here, so am late in closing it.)

I want to thank everyone for the time they took in gathering their thoughts, and giving their input. Have a wondrous rest of the Sunday!!
