Default Re: tell me what you think of splitting \'a&e\' into a separate forum

Is OOT really that scary that there are MODS afraid to come in here?

in a word, yes. i don't really blame them either.

i suspect that if they feel this way, there are lots of other people on 2+2 that do too. if splitting would suddenly cause all of those people to generate more traffic, that would be in 2+2's best interest. but right now oot is in 2+2's best interest. oot has real numbers, a&e has speculative ones. so the question is to what degree a split could hurt oot.

i'm surprised that so many oot regulars think a&e is all we've got though. really, look at the thread list.

The problem, as I see it down the line, is weeks, months, or years after the split, when someone says, "Look at OOT, all they do is talk about sex and poop and the color of tennis balls," it will, for the first time, be (nearly completely) true. Then where does OOT stand?
