New Forum Request
I invited a friend from work to join the forums a couple of weeks ago, having bought a Jeep for the first time. Yesterday, he told me the site "wasn't quite what he was looking for". Ok....why not? "Too much bs about politics." Ok. I agreed.
So, due to the often angry threads about politics, religion, differing beliefs about other people's cultures, another member is gone before they joined. What I am proposing is a new forum, separate from the "General Chat" forum for all of the whiney, gripey, XXXX-bashing threads that tend to pop up all to often. Maybe place it at the bottom of the "Forum Home" page. When you think about it, this being a Jeep site, the first thing people see when they come to our little corner of the web is the "General Chat" forums, and the headlines there read like a smorgasbord of non-family-friendly rants against everything under the sun! Definitely a turn-off to new members, and even to some regular members. Why not have the tech forums first, then the events forum, then the general chat, then the bashing forum?
Terry, it's your site.....are these the first things you want your prospective members to see?
