    On another note, if Gen. Discussion is broken up into sub-forums, it should have a "new threads" feature where you can basically see ALL of the new threads.
    On HA I will usually just go to the General Discussion section and read whatever has been bumped to the top ten/fifteen/whatever. HA, as with all forums, does have a "View New Posts" button somewhere, that will ping all sections/threads for the most recent activity. If HA gets broken down to a number of sub-sections/threads I'd use that function instead of going directly to a particular area.

Obviously, the girls all have there own sites, but this would be more of a general database directing people where to go to see more.

    Basically, encourage personal mini blogs/threads from each Hung Angel.

    The HA girls would, I'm sure, continue to post in General Discussion at times, but this would make things more organized. Ecstatic has already posted a pretty concise list of most of the girls who post regularily, so there you go.

    I think that having their own, exclusive threads would be incentive for the girls to post more frequently.

    Just my
    Excellent idea, Honda! Why not? You could say that some of this would be in the personals, some in the porn pics forum (assuming one is created), some in profiles, and some in general dissention, er, discussion, but this would be more focused.

    I don't mean not using Ebonics or jargon (although sometimes that too can get annoying if overused), I mean getting a message across in a way that everyone reading a thread will understand. I don't want to click on a thread and get 2 pages of French or Italian along with bad translations made via google or babelfish.

    Often the foreign languages are used for flaming or insulting particular members. Therefore, we must disagree- I think posts in the threads should be in English. Those who have difficulties in English can be forgiven for bad English, but posting a load of gobbledygook of (often bad) French intended at hurling abuse at another member annoys the fuck out of me.

    As for putting porn pics separately from the main discussion, I'll agree on that.
    OK, I agree there. Perhaps if the thread is language-centric, that would be one thing, but avoiding insults and flames is desirable. One forum that I participate on has a number of tgirls posting from the Philippines (you know the one), and they carry on conversations between themselves in Tagalog with smatterings of English, and half the fun is trying to figure out what they're saying. That kind of thing I think would be fine. Also, I remember some postings in French to Allanah when she was visiting Quebec (if memory serves, lol), and that too was fun. But your points are well taken.

    Thanks guys, I really do agree that would be a good idea.

    And on a humble note:

    HA HA! My idea was the best again! When do I get my title changed to "Mastermind"?

    :P

    That's what I usually do, but every once in a while someone cross-references something from one of the other forums and I think "Damn, I wish I didn't miss that one."

    mmm, I suspect we're violating the tenor of this thread.... but it does bring up an interesting point, which is the tendency sometimes for people to use the forum as a chat room, and banter back and forth. Should limits be imposed on this activity?

    Ultimately, you're going to have some sort of 'chat' activity. It's unavoidable. Just look at the typical party conversation. "Comment", "Yah", "Really", "Comment", etc. Human nature, as ugly as it can be, can't be helped.

    Though, banter of a conversational motif can work rather well and breed further discourse. It gets ugly when nine out of ten posts are cut-n-paste quotes of the beginning of the thread followed by empty comments of "LOL", "GTFO", and "You bahstid!".
