First, I must say the forum is off to a great start. However, the previous iteration had a suggestion thread which I propose we start up again here.

Let me start: It might be a good idea to set up some way to establish a moderator or two other than Mr. total punk himself.

Anecdotal evidence for why this is a good idea: I have met one person who ended up in therapy because of how they were treated on terminal boredom forums. Also, one might guess that particular forum was deleted because the remaining posters had poor taste in music and politics and RK could not invest time in moderating.

I am not bringing this up because of anything in the present. In fact, the intro thread is a brilliant way to keep things civil by decreasing the anonymity factor which can feed into message board think. But in conversations with other posters/potential posters off the board, it seems there is some hesitation about when it falls off the cliff.

    Thanks for the suggestions. Yeah Terminal Boredom was for sure awful at the end and want to make sure not to replicate that here. As of now I have the time to moderate the board on my own but adding a second moderator is a good idea. Would be nice to have someone other than a dude be the second moderator.

        Randall Thanks for being open to suggestions. Definitely think you have done something great starting this up and maintaining. Definitely agree on your last point.

          What happened to the quote function? It's easier to follow when you can quote an entire post, now only the name gets tagged.

            All you have to do is highlight what you want to quote, and a quote icon comes up. Click on it and then type your post

                Got it!

                  Not to be a debbie downer, but does this forum matrix allow the ability to 'hide' a thread? I don't like beer.

                    sicboy Have you tried the dropdown atop each discussion thread next to “Follow”?

                    Maybe adding it to “Ignore” does the trick?

                        paperhose took you up on your suggestion and we now have another mod. My friend @filthqueen666 will be the second mod I’m not sure if she has introduced herself in the intro thread but if not I’ll leave it up to her if she wants to here or not.

                            JessVex I've had a few people ask so changed it over. Gonna look into figuring out a way for people to have the option for dark or light mode

                                  Dark mode finally kicked in for me! Thank you so much, I prefer it in all honesty

                                    v yeah I’ve had a few people mention it to me. Hopefully that’s the consensus because as of now it’s an either/ or situation

                                      Thank you for the dark mode 🙏
