Also, we have 5 regular members right now who visit daily, not even. So if the work was wanted to be private, we could simply state in the blog forums in a stickied topic a disclaimer explaining that all poems/stories posted in the blog forum would be public to guests. That way, people just wont participate in the contests if they really dont want anyone to see their work.

You guys want to have a separate forum for things related to the blog, and to discuss the blog and everything? I think that would be alright. Yes, we do need more users, and hopefully the blog will help with that. Should we make it so that the forum is a sub, or should we make it so you cant view it unless you want to, or what?

I think there are two ways to go at this: 1)"WR Blog" is a single forum, perhaps with child boards titled with the diff contest names to keep it clean if it looks like it's gonna be really messy without. (Not entirely necessary, however). This would keep it compressed and minimal on the home page, without needing to ignore it (you can choose to ignore certain forums?) 2)"WR Blog" is a category, with forums for the contests, and whatever else (I'm not sure what else there really is). This would be the expanded form, and add to the length of the home page. I'm not sure which of the two above y'all thinking about, but I was thinking more of No. 1. Also, what would 'discussing the blog' mean? Would feedback/suggestions would still go into Contribute Your Thoughts? (As it's a member opinion type of discussion, not so much that it would be going to where all the guests are being guided to from the blog). .. There's a plethora of ways to do this, and problems that come with each.

We can then just have another sub forum called Comments, where people could post comments, or other blog related stuff. That can keep the WR Forum a little more separate from the blog, so people who dont want to view the forum or the blog can simply view what they want to. Edited by Mythic, Nov 6 2008, 10:30 PM.

Mythic: When you talk about the Comments section, are you saying like guest comments, or member comments? Also, should this extra forum be like obvious so anyone can view it, or should it be like with the clubs, where you have to join to see it? If we did join to see it, we could make it so you didn't have to view it if you didn't want to...
