I've moved the Lounge up the categories list, so you don't have to scroll after selecting categories on mobile (or on PC to see the full sidebar). Does that help? — Baden
Don't feel like your work has gone to waste. I too am saddened by removing many enjoyable threads to the lounge. But, as you neatly said, it is what it is, and I can still carry on. — Posty McPostface
I could be wrong but I don't think Tiff was talking about discussions that have been moved to the Lounge. Discussions are moved to the Lounge if that's where they fit. What's the problem? — jamalrob
A lot of us probably spend too much time on politics, discussions of which tend to be more contentious and less charitable than other areas. But what do you suggest we change about the site in terms of policy to deal with that (other than what we've done)? — Baden
Sure, but if we called it, say, "The Marquis de Sade's Den of Iniquity", would that not lend the site a certain Je ne sais quoi?. — Baden
Probably if we changed the name of the lounge to "The Secret Space" or something mysterious sounding, nobody would mind its discussions not being on the front page and would rush there to partake of its enigmatic ambience. Thinking aloud here.. — Baden
OK, I think it can find a place for it. — Baden
Thanks, Tiff. Yes, if you could tell him. :smile:He is doing wonderfully Paul. I can pass on a message to him for you or if you want, you can send him a PM here Paul and I will nudge him to check in on his messages here. :flower: — ArguingWAristotleTiff
jamalrob, I started my discussions in The Lounge, I don't know that any one of my threads has been moved. I am just asking for the consideration of the #MeToo discussion I started to be moved out of the lounge into a Philosophical category so it can be found if ever the topic comes up again. — ArguingWAristotleTiff
I did a little experiment. Some might be aware of this already, but it appears that it is possible to move a thread from one category to another IF one is the thread starter. Just edit the OP, and choose a different category. I moved an old thread I started into The Lounge to see if it was possible. Maybe that is helpful now that there is a larger difference between Lounge and Philosophical threads — 0 thru 9
Since I was working with an administrator about the movement of the #MeToo thread and it still remains in the Lounge, I have to go with the idea that it is in where the administration believes it properly should be.OK, I think it can find a place for it. — Baden
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
