After a few nipping staking threads you introduce new boards yet a hundred diaries and you won't?
Not very consistant.



A hundred? WOW! turn my back for 10 mins and we've gained about 80 odd diaries.

I must get to work...

You missed the irony

Obviously the only argument for staking boards is that it will attract new members, so greed is the driving force so logically it was Tighty's decision?
Do you really want the types of members attracted to staking boards though?

this simply isn't the case Ian

there's a 300 post threshold for staking and being staked for starters, we're not after new members for this as such

We felt, after a good debate, that the popularity of staking posts and the potential risks associated with it necessitated some ground rules and logically collect them in one place


Diaries there are different issues, again some mods are more pro than anti about a seperate board or moving them to the lounge but already you are seeing a thinning out of the concentration of diaries at the top of the rail now we are at the end of Vegas, and (as a secondary factor, but one I argued of course) there are some business reasons to keep the traffic from the most high profile diaries on the rail.

My point is simple, nobody AFAIK asked for staking boards, plenty asked for other boards, so why would one be more attractive to the management than others?, simple,staking boards attract people obviously through their nature (something for nothing) others not.
Comercial decisions by corporate whores again Grin

Again, this is non-commercial. As specifically stated in the guidelines for the new board in the OP

So why something nobody asked for v something plenty asked for if not commercial?
