Then nobody would visit the etc. forum and it would be a ghost town.

Anyone know if the updates are done? Because there are still some things that aren't loading correctly...

Moderators can't create new forums (only Rob_E can), but I've passed along a suggestion to him for new forums along those lines:

mindseye said:
Here's a list of the number of threads in each forum that have received any activity during the past 24 hours. Consider it a measure of how active that forum is:

  • New Member Introductions: 28 threads
  • Sex With A Large Penis: 18 threads
  • Underwear: 18 threads
  • The Healthy Penis: 15 threads
  • Young and Hung: 32 threads
  • Celebrity Endowments: 38 threads
  • Women's Issues: 16 threads
  • Funny Stuff: 20 threads
  • Penis Enlargement: 4 threads
  • Fictitious Stories: 4 threads
  • Adult Websites: 31 threads
  • Et Cetera Et Cetera: 51 threads
  • Large Penis Personal Ads: 22 threads
  • Webcams: 10 threads
  • Help Desk: 2 threads
The Et Cetera Et Cetera forum is scrolling at a much faster rate than any other forum; for a user to catch up with the previous 24 hours' posting, they have to start all the way back at page 3 and work their way forward.

To alleviate this volume, I'd like to propose the creation of two subforums:

  • 2008 US Presidential Election. Not all of our readers are Americans, and even out of the ones who are, not all of them are interested in the volume of posts (or the level of hostility) this topic has generated. This forum would be temporary; posts in the forums would be folded back into Et Cetera Et Cetera once the election is over.
  • Special Events: This thread would host discussion of other special events that are likely to generate discussion, such as:
    • August 8-August 24: The 2008 Summer Olympics
    • August 25-September 27: The 2008 U.S. Open
    • October 22-October 30: The 2008 World Series
    • February 1: Superbowl XLIII
    • February 22: The 81st Academy Awards
This latter thread would also alleviate some of the scrolling in "Celebrity Endowments", our second-busiest forum. During the 2004 Olympics, there was a lot of speculation on the various swimmers, divers, runners, and gymnasts that competed in speedos and shorts. I'm envisioning this thread as being permanent, but with a 'rotating' topic.​

This is a message I sent to Rob earlier -- it's pretty similar to what you've suggested. No way of knowing whether he'll act on it, though.

I am still getting X reload this page and have done it numerous times anyone else got this, also cannot load pics up to a gallery.

The "reload this page" is definitely a glitch. What happens when you try to upload pictures?

I have that too. There's also a box like that next to some of the threads in the forums and they appear to have tags listed next to them...for example, next to a thread title is a box that says " X obama, politics, war"

Not true. I hate all the viciousness and fighting that goes on in the political threads. :mad: I haven't opened anything with Obama or Clinton in the title in weeks. Yet I still manage to find plenty of interesting things to read and comment on in etc., etc.

I like those suggestions! :smile: Do you think he's avoiding a politics forum because the elections are only every 4 years?

I have had that in the upper left hand corner of my screen since the more recent changes. It works as a refresh but it's weird to see it there.

I am in a zero porn phase and only want to debate on important issues these days. I could care less about most of the stupid shit that is in the etc. forum. and elsewhere on the site... I'm only here for the arguments! lol!!! :smile:

The more I argue, the better a communicator I become. Improved communication skills mean that I will be a better human and will be able to interface with my fellow man better.

But go ahead, keep posting obituary threads and stay out of the political discussions if you must, but your opinion would be HIGHLY welcome if you did decide to participate in these important threads.

**************************************

Oh and by the way everybody... lpsg's political threads have more substance in them than the entire site combined.

Gee, I'm sorry to here that. :frown1: It seems that coming here just to argue would aggravate your anger issues rather than alleviating them.

Where did you here that load of crap. I love you Tripod; but thats total BS. Not being a hermit, going out, and socializing with others helps you to be a better communicator. Argueing with people all the time is just annoying.

Thanks for the invite but I shall respectfully decline. :cool:

Besides some people don't watch the news and appreciate knowing who has died. Just be glad I'm not tilting at the windmills of circumcision. :biggrin1:

I sincerely doubt that, as there are too many left wing and right wing looney tunes milling about on here.

Actually the art of debating is a useful activity that allows you to be exposed to opinions others share that are different from your own. It is in the art of the argument that one can ascertain a larger perspective. A larger perspective can mean a better chance of knowing one's self. I don't know about you, but I came here to Earth to realize who I am and listening to other opposing beliefs than my own helps me to become my true self. I don't just argue, I listen and read as well. There are such things as constructive arguments. Besides, I don't wanna preach to the choir... I want to hear other intelligent views that will help me understand the world that surrounds me better. The people here on this site are more intelligent than most of the local Statesvillians in my town. There is no place in a reasonable driving distance that I could experience discourse like I do here at lpsg. I'm not gonna go to the local WAL-MART and talk politics with the average retards that shop there.

And by the way, I am not a hermit, I am a video editor that needs to be in my EDITING SUITE to get my deadlines accomplished... I am probably one of the best wedding video editors in North Carolina and I book up for the year VERY fast. I am now booked for the entire year and am just turning down video offers left and right. My hard work and diligence is paying off sister.

Hmm, I can't figure out why you're having trouble adding pictures to the gallery. Check to make sure you're not blocking javascript from LPSG, then try this link.
