It's a bit analogous to the old Flat Earth Believers board, isn't it?

That's my thoughts too. Should be in the lower fora as its not really for discussions about the earths shape.

I would say that as the council are ostensibly the body that discusses and makes ongoing decisions relating to the promotion and organization of the ideals of FET, and that those plans will be discussed in that forum, that it should remain in the upper fora.

Yes, God forbid that the Zetetic Council should have any discussions about the earth's shape or FAQ/Wiki content.

Then it's better to just name it 'flat earth believers elitist club' and have done with it.

Maybe you should create a poll to find out how many people are actually concerned about this, and depending on the results we may do something about it.

Until then, uhhh... no.

I don't even care to find out what you're doing wrong, but I'm sure you're doing something wrong.

Well, that would be because they are moderators of that board. I'm not entirely sure what you expected my answer to be.

Perhaps a clarification of their permissions profile will be of help: Within that board only, they have privileges that are slightly higher than those of regular users in other boards. For example, they can sticky/unsticky threads, move their own topics from that board to other boards, or add polls to threads.

That makes sense, I suppose.  It's just weird (and a bit frightening) to see Thork as a mod.

Lemon is not made of Jelly, silly boy. And I might have been jealous, if I had been one of the people that put their name forward.

This thread has long run its course, and apparently people can't resist the temptation of spamming here. Locking.
