"The direction" of this forum

There is no intelligent conversation or debate, nothing to hold my interest here. I enjoy Science and Space, the old forum was somewhat active in that regard, but as it switched over, members were uninterested in this aspect. I quit posting as many topics others were uninterested in in fear of flooding the forum with topic overwhelmingly by me with no responses, as fcbayer has(at times duplicating old info).

I'm interested in computers, the section on computers has always been more advanced than my level, mainly because it's post have been geared more towards code and software than hardware. Spaz, Fragged and Magic kept that alive.

Music is my main interest, but music has always been a joke: few music fans post in there, there is little intelligent conversation, and no one is respectful of others opinions on something as subjective as music. It has been more successful as the media section, but that day is long past as well.

No one is interested in the News section, another interest of mine, and the Debate section has never been able to get far enough out of religious debate to actually debate anything of importance that wouldn't just end up at faith.

Overall, nothing that interest me is discussed here, and the things I do discuss often get flooded with opinions of those who are ignorance in the subject matter in discussion. I don't want to bore others, and I don't want to converse about non-sense all the time. I just seems like there is nothing worth talking about here by the members, and some of that is due to a low regular member count, but more of it has to do with the members and how they respond to each other, it seems.

Not to be an dimwit, but, you mean 'ignorant in the subject matter in discussion' not ignorance.

The AF was redone about a year ago by Magic. Before that there was the old AF which was around for a few years.

if you dont think theres anything intresting here start a new topic about somthing intresting to you.

and so this post is'nt off topic maybe make it so that there is less spamming and have it so if people want to talk about somthing and somebody is annoyed by a person they can lock them out of the topic.

I recall my Trash idea.

Reaper wrote: Ok I got an idea! I used to go to a forum that had a "Trash" section. That's where all the off topic threads went, and there were no rules. You could spam all you wanted, and flame each other for fun, or really flame each other. I liked it. And so did most people there.

This forum has always needed more of two things:
1) Pirates
2) Ninjas to do battle with the Pirates
