i think that was the year before to be honest, if this is to be done properly I think the moderating team should make the catagories (albeit with input from a few they may want to ask).

Asking the froum openly takes too long and does not produce a satisfactory conclusion.

What does ODA mean?

[Beowulf]

What does ODA mean?

Ohio Dental Association ?
Open Document Architecture?

As to the subject of those categories I would agree they are fine. You don't want too many cats though

Yes but we should be able to give our opinion of what we would like to see as categories.

We have been able to in the past!

O? Devils Advocate

"Official"??

Yes it stands for "Official Devils Advocate" which was Gus's tagline a while ago due to his threads often taking that position. As more and more stupid people joined the forum and thought it was his personal opinion, the name eventually faded away

yes, and it has taken too long and the result is a washout as people do not have time to vote. Someone has to moderate this, and as you seem to have volunteered you could update this thread every now and again with the best suggestions. Do it quickly now, unless Blaze 2 is next year, in which case theres not that much of a hurry anyway

Mmmm when I play Devils Advocate, I get accused of trolling. Mainly because of the same 'stupid' people.

Qestions like "should we tell beginners to give up if their rubbish or encurange them?" get misread by people. They read "I always tell rubish people to give up".
