question from OTD never answered

this was posted by someone else in OTD and despite my bumping, never answered:
"Name one thing you can post here that you can't post in the Pub."
if OTD is going to be "cleaned up" so much, i guess i don't get the pub.

thank you mr mushrooms for your honesty, and for letting me know there's someone listening...
i know how much time some of the admins spend on the board, and therefore i'm irritated right now at the lack of response.

The OTD was there before the Pub.
If the OTD cleanup succeeds, I don?t see a reason why it couldn?t join with the Pub.

I agree. Let's see what happens in the next few weeks. This may very well be the answer!

Ahhh, now we see the hidden motive behind getting rid of cheers. It was to create one forum out of 3. The truth is, though, that there will never be OTD and the Pub existing as one. It may happen, but it won't work. One forum is for people to goof off in and post whatever the hell they want, the other is for people to post things off-topic, but of a serious nature. What is the reason for all of this combining, renaming, and deleting of forums?! Is it just to save harddrive space and make things more manageable?!

those three forums were made out of one, so why can't it work the other way too?

Because those 3 forums were effective and each served their own purpose.

Let's just say that I am still on the fence on the idea of combining both the Pub and OTD, but recent events have left me more open to the possibility. I have fought many battles here -- some I?ve won and some I?ve lost. However, I have finally woken up to some of the bigger problems which exist here. Problems involving the splintering of this community, the festering of negative social attitudes, and the existence of climate of rampant paranoia.
I am no longer going to dig in my heels, and fight so much, to preserve the status quo of this community, as I am not sure the status quo is desirable anymore. I have always been open to the ideas of my fellow Mods, but I will play devil?s advocate much less. I will no longer be playing brakeman of the circus train of the glorious revolution -- I would rather be one of the dancing circus bears instead...

I still don't know if that's such a good idea to combine the two.
As of current, the OTD is slowly turning into another Pub, like we've all seemed to have mentioned above.
So in essence, you aren't really combining the two as much as "The Pub" will simply REPLACE OTD.

At this pace, it will turn into Pub in 14 years, 2 months, 18 days and 11 hours.

That's years as measured on Pluto, correct?
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

LMAO! That's a good one, Mr. Spock!
I'm glad to see you having fun, now that you don't have to worry about all that Admin crap! It must be nice!
Myself, I have to get busy re-writing the entire board software. I am going to be working very hard to try and satisfy everyone?s strange needs by adding a long list of mutually exclusive, and contradictory, new features. I think this will secure our place in history by setting new standards in "feature-bloat" that will take Microsoft years to catch up on! The Shroomery is Number One!
I am also trying to secure a large shipment of Prozac to help treat our more paranoid junior-revolutionaries. These things should take me a few more days, but then I'll be back!

I'm serious though, WE keep hearing this "unwelcoming to new people". Well when you see 2 people yapping back and forth in a newbies thread it is worse than the other stuff. I say solve that crap first( which seems unlikely).
