I guess I just don't see how the TalkBoard has anything to say about what folks post in any forum.

As I recall, I was on TalkBoard at the time that both the Women's Forum and the GLBT Forum were discussed. At the time I left, discussion was, I believe closed, and there was nothing left to do but vote. Of course I could be wrong, but I don't really remember any greater restrictions being place on the GLBT forum than on the Women's Forum. Did that come along after I resigned?

Why is the GLBT forum so restrictive? Why shouldn't folks be able to discuss gay marriage in the GLBT forum? Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

What I specifically don't understand is why TalkBoard, rather than the moderators and Randy, would be involved in making forum content decisions. As long as the topic is more or less relevant to the topic and no one is attacked or hurt, who cares what is posted?

I think some people worry way too much about other people's posts.
