Is this a call for opinions or a statement of things to come?

In either case, my opinion on this shouldn't be a mystery.  I'm all for it.

Never mind, I had only looked at the top list of "BYOAC Forums" where the new forum isn't yet listed.  But I just saw that the new board is already exists.

Will there be a link to the new board under BYOAC Forums?

Well, I got a bit too aggressive with one of the throws and hurt someone's wrist (which I felt horrible about), does that count?

He got even by throwing me through the air a half dozen times or so :)

Oh, and the wife and I both got promoted tonight -- woot!

It's on the main list of forums, but I just dropped a bookmark onto the toolbar

Including Santoro, frankly

Is it wrong to derive some satisfaction from seeing these people unable to help themselves?  It was comical enough when they mysteriously couldn't stop themselves from clicking on and posting in an obviously political thread, but now they have to go to a special Politics and Religion forum and even that doesn't keep them away. 

I think, if Saint were a responsible person, he would provide a twelve-step program for people like Santoro (and he's not alone), or at the very least provide a disclaimer, similar to the Sergeon-General's warning, describing the addictive qualities and negative health effects of the PnR forum.

Have a sense of humor man.  I didn't take a solemn vow to avoid PnR. 

My point was that I can more easily avoid the windbag-fests this way. I may participate here and there, but I am glad to have EE back to its pre-2004 form.

And Chelsea is ugly. neener neener.  :-*

Soon i'm sure even the new special area won't be good enough.. they will want it off the board altogether.
