All views & Cafe

^ Okay but merging the two forums still isn’t an option. I’m pretty sure Azkar bhai wouldn’t approve of the idea.

Give us other suggestions as to what we can do about the issue at hand. Move any non-serious threads to Cafe and keep AV a forum for serious discussions only? What defines a Cafe thread anyway? If you were to go back 3, 4, 5, years, you will see that AV has always allowed light hearted threads. We do not want to be so strict and uptight in AV that we scare everyone away yet we do not want valuable posters like you to be put off by the non-serious threads.

I thought we had it balanced quite well. Threads on Kony, Sir Edhi etc are running simultaneously with threads like “dear guppy” and Kasauti, the way it always has been in AV as far as I can remember. If other AV posters think the forum is taking the wrong turn, we will honour their request to “fix” AV for sure.

IMO,both forums should have more distinction.

These kind of threads previously existed i Cafe’

@philosophy

allviews is for intellectual conversation and wit. for the more mature audience, hopefully.

@NomiCA

its just the next best thing for adults/mature people… to cafe…

@NomiCA

the fact that you guys refuse to acknowledge that cafe has become a very limited area…and with a very characterisitic posting behaviour… its NOT for general users anymore..

so they do tend to open cafe’ish threads in AV…

Nomica,cafe’ is for everyone.But,as philo pointed out above ,tht’s the general perception now.The kind of threads & the replies depend on the posters posting.If the same Intellectual,Witty & Mature posters post in cafe’ im sure the environment in cafe’ will change.I don’t think a sub-forum is required.In my opinion,what is required is changing the general preception ,that the less intelligent,less witty & immature members post in cafe’.
