Kurtz
12-07-2007, 02:13 PM
Hey folks, I know y'all have gone thru a lot of changes 'n it does get to be a pita to keep all this stuff straight in your mind (it does mine :lol ), but I wanna make some more changes.
In my mind, the forum names need to have some kinda continuity with our main name The Political Asylum. Kurtz is actually the name I used because I was seekin' asylum when I first came here from a collage of other places I posted. Okay, no long stories, stay on topic, okay? OK.
I wanna make TPA a fun place to post and interact on the internetS while we cuss 'n discuss some of the important issues of the day. I've tried to blend the past with the future. I'd like to see TPA return to some thangs while leavin' others behind. We now have a Debate forum 'n we have a forum for LGBT matters. My own opinion is that LGBT matters are like women's issues, a national issue, but I've made a special forum for it so that those issues may be addressed in that forum for easy reference.
Hopefully, the new titles of the forums will soon click with the old names that people seem to know the topic matter, kwim?
Here's the new forum names followed by the old forum names and the respective topics 'n SMs:
