    Would it be possible to make a forum specifically for the drama threads? There's 14 threads on the front page of the Red Room and it's getting cluttered. It would help those of us that really don't care about the e-drama and just look for a fun diversion instead of working (like I am right now. Damn writer's block.). You could maybe call it the Proscenium or something.

    Thanks.

    Personally, I don't think it's a bad idea. Not everyone wants to be bothered with :drama:

    So then the Red Room moderator, Elwood, would be tasked with moving a bunch of drama threads to a subforum?

    It's not that hard to skip over the drama threads. I was able to skip over the Meka drama thread last year. :shrug:

    Best to put them in another forum or just close them altogether. The RR is a complete mess at the moment and has been for a while, cluttered with rubbish that doesn't belong there.

    It's a good suggestion (and one I've made in the past myself), but I don't see that happening. We don't get this much drama, usually, and if people aren't interested in it, it's easy enough just to not read it or post in it and keep pushing it up to the front page. :clyde: Well, at least for me, anyway.
