UHMM...CAN WE MAKE A FEW CHANGES HERE?

Yup, some constructive criticism.

1. The biggest change that needs to be made?...I don't know if you realise it 'Poe', but if a person is not registered and visits 'opentalk forum.com'?---All they see/view is the 'Open Discussion' and 'Politics' Threads. It makes the site look 'deader' than it has been--it's a simple change that will make a huge difference in folks from the 'outside' that may want to have something to say.

2. 'Site Stuff'...again, too restricted. Open the site-up and get more posters involved. The 'Site stuff' thread should be limited to next to nothing.

3. YOU PEOPLE---the members. You folks need to get out more, join some Fantasy Leagues, be more pro-active and such. No disrespect because I love most of you...but seriously, you piss me off to the point of posting shit on you here at this site...Shoot I have a good friend of mine that wants to meet a 'good woman' he's a really good guy and stuff---but he never leaves his house and won't take a chance on going out and meeting girls---what do you think is going to happen to him? Social Media has brought down a few Governments recently, don't be afraid to join a few other Web-sites or Fantasy Leagues...someone might think your a good time and start following you here.

4. This is a technical change...very irritating when your post is 'timed-out' and it is rediculous to try and type. It happens mostly when replying or quoting, that's a simple fix at SMF. That time limitation is 5 minutes too short.

I have a few more realistic ideas...each one is to make this place better.
