UPDATE: Beyond and Bilge Talkback Topic - General Tiki

That worked. Plus, they turned out to be quite amusing, and occasionally even informative. Now that they are only for grand members, I think you will find the original issue that caused them to be created in the first place will just arise again - off topic posts will begin appearing in the main forum. Which will then have to be dealt with in some way (moved, chided, deleted, or what have you). The way I see it is this: It's more work for the mods, less fun for the people. Comrade Jane
