I feel like Frodo Baggins gone back to the Shire. The place is so deserted, and people could give a damn about it. It was rising in popularity and all, and somehow it crashed. I just wonder ... how did it happen? And why were people deterred?

As I said in another thread:

QUOTE (Sarielite)
I'd be tempted to start a petition to get the forums restructured so they're easier to manage. There are about 25 forums and subforums right now, and most of them see no action. Breaking that down into four main sections and refiling the stuff that already exists seems like a way to both increase activity and make the place easier to manage.

Perhaps:

* Politics
* News
* ZDLR
* Lounge

Give each moderator control over two of the forums, but each one gets a different two. This decreases the chances that one mod will go MIA and leave a forum totally unmoderated (like Politick).

I might even be willing to dedicate the time to do the restructuring, if it's time-intensive.
