I have some good news for all members.

Some people want to read old Archived threads.
I don't know why but as the new EL I am required to do what the members want.

A new folder will be created on the front page of the real PA forum called The Dungeon.
It will be password protected and any member including probationary members
who want that secret password will have it sent to them via PM.
It will be a huge reservoir of old threads.
I can promise that almost everything hidden that is here on this site
will eventually be moved there with the exception of:
(1) disgusting threads.
(2) highly abusive threads.
(3) threads where guest posters wrote things that they shouldn't have.

Whatever is there will increase day by day and most threads will not be locked.
Everyday there will be more threads to read and even reply to
however I don't expect or want a great deal of new writing activity there.
I would prefer most new writing activity out on the main forum
where even non members browsing can see it.

Please allow a few days for this process to start
and maybe a few weeks before any substantial number of threads are moved there.

Why password protect? Can we get the hell away from secret boards etc?

Can use privileges to exclude guest posters say.

I have started the new The Dungeon folder.
It has a whole lot of previous election posts in it.
PM me if you want the password.

Why password protect, Bobby?
Make it available to members, that is all that might be needed.

It is available to all members even P plate members like you.
I want it locked away from the general public as
there is too much dirty laundry there.
