I was thinking that instead of locking at least 2 strain threads a day in the cult forum, we could open another forum for strain discussion only. If you are feeling shorthanded I could help set it up a few hours a week.

right, they should stop labeling strains, ks is just the same as cambodian, which is the same as pe, no difference between them.

We already have the Strain Thread stickied in the Mush Cult forum...
that is more than enough.
Having a Strain forum or sub-forum would be a waste of space...IMHO

ya well, folks still post strain questions all day long in cult forum. I just thought that it may take away from the 30 or so locked strain threads every week.

george,
newbies would still post them in the main part of the Mush Cult forum.
RR and I would end up having to move them...
rather than lock em up.
And we would end up with a Strain forum that isn't used much...
so that's why it's a bad idea...IMO

They're all cubensis, you can give them as many silly names as you like.

Yes, that is exactly what I was thinking. We could move all those dead threads and leave them active. It seems that everyone that has taken the time to reply thinks this is a bad idea. I can live with that. But I do think that the strain forum would definitely not be the least used forum on the site, and I would bet on that giving 2 to 1 odds. It is just that I really enjoy the different strains and I do get different buzz from them. I think that a strain forum would be worthwhile. Like I said, I would be willing to do most of the work, but if the vote of the whole company is against me, I could hardly insist. Thanks to everyone for sharing their input.

If anything it should be a subforum of mush cult. It definitely belongs there and I think it'd be easier for people to notice a Strain Forum rather than just a thread. I think cubensis strain discussion is a big enough topic that it deserves it's own subforum.
IMHO I think that every aspect of the mushroom cultivation forums should be rewired. It should be Mushroom Cultivation as the main forum, then every other aspect should demoted into a subforum OF mushroom cultivation. (Advanced, contams, strain, logs) It'll clean up the boards a lot and put everything in it's proper place.
Any takers?

It's a good idea, and when you post you can be forced to select the sub-topic from a drop-down box like in some of the other forums.

A Strain Forum or a Strain Sub-Forum?
A Forum is unlikely to happen. A Sub-Forum maybe, but personally, I almost never notice the sub-forums. However I do notice stickies, since I have to differentiate between them and the new topics anyway. If you meant sub-forum, then why do you think it would go more noticed than a sticky?? It just sounds like more work for the mods of that forum.

Oops yea I meant subforum. I agree they're a little hard to notice but if it were set up like I mentioned it'd be easier for people to see the subforums because Mush Cult would have so many. (adv. contam., strain disc. etc)

making a Strain sub forum would be a complete waste of time...IMO
Cubensis Strains are really not that important... it's not like we are talking about different types of weed here.
hardly anyone would post in it...
most newbies would just still post in the main Mush Cult...
and we(the Mush Cult Mods) would end up moving the thread into the new sub forum.
Plus we already have the Archives as a Sub forum of the Mush Cult and putting another Sub forum would take away even more precious space.
meaning less posts would be seen on the 1st page...
and more people would be bumping their threads to get their questions answered.

You just do not like this idea because I thought of it first. Do not let you personal dislike of me get in the way of a good idea.

The old timers say a cube is a cube, yet when PE is in question it's different and then a cube is not a cube.
I don't see why other strains can't be different. If the phenotype is different, then other attributes have to be as well. All of the strains seem to have characteristics that stay within that strain, so I don't think a cube is always a cube.
Some will disagree though.
