What do you all think about combining "general discussion" and "ground bound fun" into one forum?

Yeah, originally there was no 'ground-bound' fun,
just 'general discussion' . But an argument was
made that if you want to arrange a non-flying
event with fellow pilots (skiing, movies, concerts)
then that type of post would have a higher "signal"
value than a typical anything-goes post in the
general discussion area.

It's the old "lumping vs splitting" problem.... and
there's no way that you can come up with something
that everyone likes.

If there's demand for that change, I'd certainly bow
to the members' wishes. Maybe you could start a poll
or something?

Yeah. I might start a poll. But later, when people have used the forums for a while.
