[VOTE] Forum Reorganization

Post by Dalton »

As discussed in this thread, we have come up with a new organizational structure for the forum based on the falling popularity of versus debates, as well as slow traffic in PST and PSW, plus the promotion of the History forum to full forum status. The below is the new proposed structure:

SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY
Science Fiction (formerly Other Sci-Fi)
  • Subforum: Pure Star Wars
    Subforum: Pure Star Trek
    Subforum: SW/ST
Fantasy
Fanfics
  • Subforum: Cleaned/Completed Fanfics
NON-FICTION
Science, Logic and Morality
  • Subforum: Debating Help
    Subforum: Library
News and Politics
  • Subforum: Famous Threads
History
Off-Topic
Artwork, Music and Photos
  • Subforum: Art Gallery
Gaming and Computers
  • Subforum: STGOD role-playing games
Adult Relationships & Sex Education

EDIT (The Chancellor): Vote will run for 7 days per 3.E.III, the current number of "active" Senators is 51. This is a Category A vote and will require a quorum of 26 and a 60% super-majority for passage

Voted, with comment. Would it be possible to keep N&P and subforums between A&P and G&C, as it is now, to minimize unnecessary changes?

Have a very nice day.

A decision must be made in the life of every nation at the very moment when the grasp of the enemy is at its throat. Then, it seems that the only way to survive is to use the means of the enemy, to rest survival upon what is expedient, to look the other way. Well, the answer to that is 'survival as what'? A country isn't a rock. It's not an extension of one's self. It's what it stands for. It's what it stands for when standing for something is the most difficult! - Chief Judge Haywood

Yes, I thought I had changed that. It's not a problem.

26 votes, or alternatively a bunch of 'yes' votes, no no votes, and Mike thinking it's a swell plan. :wink:

+1
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

Proud to be "yes #19".
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."


In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

American Conservatism is about the exercise of personal responsibility without state interference in the lives of the citizenry..... unless, of course, it involves using the bludgeon of state power to suppress things Conservatives do not like.
