    How so? Look, we're just members helping Brett out here, we're not omniscient beings. A lot of what we do is subjective. We can't all think alike. Whether a topic is LSU or non-LSU or kinda' LSU isn't always a black and white matter or a computer could do it. We make judgment calls, you gotta learn to live with that. Trying to please everybody is a forlorn hope, but we do our best.

    Many options are being considered, Grasshoppa. Have patience. :grin:

    This also is being considered.

    It is important to recognize that, even with changes, there are still going to be judgment calls by the mods on some threads. A few threads DO need to be moved to The Roundtable. Some threads WILL straddle the line between topics and get hijacked back and forth. The mods just try to keep some order and be flexible. Threads can always be moved again.

    That's true. We're the scourge of ULL country. Shoot, we're getting together for the SECCG. We're omnivorous.:hihi:

    You're too cool for a clique, SabanFan.

    Just my humble opinion, but it couldn't hurt to open it up, if at least on a trial basis. Of course, the onus on the moderators then becomes that much more daunting.

    The confusion was when you agreed with Stacey's take. So I didn't know if you didn't want an SEC forum, didn't want anything non-LSU in the Den, etc.

    Nice use of the word "forlorn". A TF first.

    A quick search indicates that NoLimitMD was the first to use the word on TF, back in 2005. It has been used on several occasions since then.


    Whatever happened to that guy anyway? :(
