like said before, the main thing lately is simple...

ALOT of members are quitting the hobby for awhile due to hard times, and alot of new members are coming around. so of course, its the same threads over and over.
threads over and over
leaving the hobby, everything for sale!
new to hobby, need help!
what skimmer for my tank?
can i put a hippo tang in a 2 gallon tank?
whats this?
high nitrates in my tank
algae sucks
over and over and over...

so, it is starting to get a little "boring" and repetitious.

ill be honest, i was on this site for 3 years straight every second at work, home and road. lately... i dont know, i do my usual random every day website check, email, droid-life, facebook, topgear car news, and then when i go to type manhatttttttttt delete delete delete.... i think ughh, screw it, i sign on, i see 200 unread posts, and scroll through them within 5 seconds and say...ok im spent and close it down. unless something catches my eye, i dont even read them all anymore... i use to read every one until it said 0 new threads or posts.

we do need something to excite this site back up, its missing its spark. new feautures, colors, catagories, anything to find that spark again...

again...all my opinion...

H After the mods finalize with their results, they implement it slowly and when they have time.

so, to mods and everyone, what say you to this idea?

I just used to do web design and a lot of vB customization. So im overly critical on forum designs.

Also, there are questions asked a million times, but like I said, I think the mods need to MOVE these threads to their respective forums instead of leaving the main forum cluttered with threads on how to cure ick and what type of tank to buy. I know between all of them they could get these threads moved within minutes. So why aren't they - isnt that the entire purpose of moderators?
