A little bit of insight as to why we are doing it this way...
First, the members make up our community here. Without you, we wouldn't be here. Which is why we are giving you the opportunity to vote on the new forum. After all, you will be the ones participating in the new forum. There's no sense in us adding a new forum that nobody wants.
Second, yes it was my idea to vote on one forum...many are asking why not add two or three or all. Here's why:
A lot of you may not have been around long enough, but those of you who have been here a while remember when we split up our coding and design forums. We went from (roughly) 4 coding and design forums to 12 fourms. We split the forums up into specific topics which, in the end, turned out great. However, the new forums were slow to pick up a couple of months after adding them.
We (at least, I) wanted to avoid the dead-forum syndrome again. Baby steps. K.I.S.S. Whatever else you refer to it as.
But bottom line - we're trying to keep it simple, and trying not to jump the gun.  |
