Sub-forum / category listings reorganized on main page
I know most people go to "Latest Posts" to look for discussions to participate in, but I did change the structure of how the categories are listed on the main page: https://www.ldsfreedomforum.com/
Some things were combined into other categories/sub-forums (especially some of the less used sub-forums).
I am open to other suggestions of how to organize and structure the listed categories/sub-forums.

Re: Sub-forum / category listings reorganized on main page
I would love to see a new space where people who are dedicated to utilizing logic and reason to glean intelligence from information can escape from some of the name calling, complaining, etc.
I love what we have, though, as well, and will be happy to continue as is.

There are a few private sub-forums that do that somewhat. The Heretic Sub-Forum for example. There are some people who have been removed from that one "who are not tolerant of unorthodoxical discussions."endlessismyname wrote: βFebruary 10th, 2022, 1:57 pm I would love to see a new space where people who are dedicated to utilizing logic and reason to glean intelligence from information can escape from some of the name calling, complaining, etc.

Re: Sub-forum / category listings reorganized on main page
It's much improved, thank you. Under gen'l discussions, however, you probably want to subordinate the top two subforums somehow. Maybe shorten the number of general topics to 10 on the first page, and put the two subforums below that. If that doesn't work, you might extract those two from gen'l and put them on their own one level higher.

Hey, Brian. Would you please create a polygamy subforum for the people who enjoy beating a dead horse? There are countless polygamy threads out there and it doesn't seem to slow down. Move all the polygamy threads to that subforum, too, please.

Re: Sub-forum / category listings reorganized on main page
I agree that there are too many polygamy threads, but it seems weird to create a sub-forum for just one topic like that.
Perhaps a sub-sub-forum that's within one of the existing categories (so it's not listed on the home page). But the polygamy threads would still show up in "Latest Posts", which seems to be how most people keep up on threads. So, what difference would it really make to categorize polygamy threads differently? I'm all ears. I could merge polygamy threads into one giant thread, unless it's truly a unique take on the topic.
Any other thoughts on a solution?

I don't think it's weird at all. No more weird than having a Secret Combinations subforum.creator wrote: βAugust 17th, 2022, 9:58 pm I agree that there are too many polygamy threads, but it seems weird to create a sub-forum for just one topic like that.

Another thought would be to merge all future polygamy topics into a single thread so that new multiple posts would become a single thread. That should clean it up a bit.

Re: Sub-forum / category listings reorganized on main page
I'd just let it be. It's one of the main reasons people come to your forum. And it would just appear in the Latest Post like you saidcreator wrote: βAugust 17th, 2022, 9:58 pm I agree that there are too many polygamy threads, but it seems weird to create a sub-forum for just one topic like that.

As long as the title let's people know it's about polygamy.... I don't see what else you can do.
Nobody is forced to read a polygamy thread.

It could cause even more polygamy discussion to happen. Unintended consequences?

Where are you finding all of these alleged infinite polygamy threads? Currently when I click on Latest Posts there is only ONE polygamy thread.
