    First let me compliment yo uon giving advice that would help 90% of polytubbies.



    But...

    My hair is already quite short, I can't go skinhead, because VetLegion would never let me hear the end of it...

    If I cleaned my room I'd get disoriented and It would waste weeks of my time.

    I got a girl, you just want me to dump her so I'd post pics of her.

      Also, I hate the people who post here so the more time they spend away from the OTF the better.

          You're so cute, I doubt there's anything you could say to piss me off.

            Leave it here. Laz is the best mod ever and the others should have this forum to learn from his example.

              Maybe we should move OT into here.

                The OT will be history soon enough.

                  I think we should keep the separate history forum, because:
                  1) when I started posting on 'Poly again, it was because of the history forum.
                  2) world history forum is the only section on CFC that I have posted to.
                  3) here history threads don't get buried.
                  4) separate history forum inspires people to post some threads that would otherwise end up unposted.
                  5) we waited quite a long time for this.
                  6) who knows what future might hold.

                    I'm sure there are fewer history related threads than was the case before the splitting of the OT. I think rather that people are more hesitant to post history threads becasue they know hardly anybody will see them now. Getting buried is instaneous if posting occurs in a forum hardly anybody looks at. the thread is effectively buried in the subforum instead of on page 3.

                      I used to post in the history threads but rarely come here to post. The benefit of having the threads all in the same place is more than lost by having far less traffic to keep a thread alive. As Geronimo points out, a thread not being posted in may as well be buried on a later page.

                      Any idea how long this decision may take?

                        but OT is slower now than before. all of 'Poly is.

                          There are some special threads here which wouldn't exist without the forum, or would be spilled with BS in the general OT. Minority protection and all that.

                              The fact there is less traffic at Poly is precisely why these subforums are not a good idea.

                              Ecthy - example? I'd really like to know what makes a thread so special it deserves the protection of not being seen.

                                Lost civs. In the OT it'd be spammed by LS into some bull**** thread.

                                Ask Ecthy about history would not have turned into the filosofest it did had it been posted in the OT.
