i agree beginners forums are kind of redundant. It would also be a headache to maintain since you're going to have to deal with beginner indoor/outdoor/hydro questions etc. The majority of newb questions can be answered through faq's and other assorted links. There's about a bajillion beginner cultivation faqs and guides available and would be a lot easier to link to them.
What about a section on growroom design and DIY projects?

Grow-room design definitely sounds like a solid idea that would garner a fair lot of participation. Definitely one to keep in mind!

Would RogerRabbit still be at the shroomery if there wasnt a beginners and advanced mush cult? I think not. The problem with calling a forum 'advanced' is people think there questions are advanced, when they are not. so i am not i favor of a forum labeled 'advanced'. But people still need somewhere they can ask basic (read: stupid) questions Actual growers do not want to shuffle though countless 'how much will this yield?' and 'i have an 8 week strain, but i need to harvest in 6 weeks, will this work?' threads

I'm happy with the all in one cult forum, I just don't bother answering questions that sound like they were typed by retards.

Would this qualify as going into the Growlog forum?

I love the clean design of the site and dont like a lot of cluttered forums. BUT
I really think there should be some form of a main "Weed" forum. Not necessarily The Stoned Experience, but something similar. I know this site is a cultivation site first, but you can't deny there will be plenty of weed talk as the community gets bigger. Which isn't a bad thing.
This site also provides, will provide, information about the usage and affects of marijuana. IMO I would like a separation from the "Im stoned.. Checkout my 8th".., and "GF dumped me"... posts.
Something other than the Smoke lounge, that's more off topic. Not OTD. I just don't see Cultivation taking over as the main forum.
I know its wayyyy early though Only my opinion, this site kicks ass either way.

Yeah coda, I agree. A growroom design forum would be nice for most of us. I don't think that anyone here wouldn't like a modification here or there. Besides, most ppl that are considering indoor cult still think they need a damn degree in electrical engineering to get anything accomplished.
I would like to see an ethno forum, being the damn ethnoguy and all lol.
Anyways, I am glad things are up and running!

If you decide to make another social forum in addition to the smoke lounge, please consider calling it "The Lot"

Compass said: I hate forums with 8 million forums. Stay clean.
Personally, I like things to be broken down into more specific categories. For example, I would love to see (once the site sees more activity) a (sub)forum called "Drug Policy Reform" where those topics can be discussed separately from the activism forums. Just so we can all keep the topics that are being created organized in places that people will be able to easily find. just my 2 cents.

I agree more appropriate categories may be necessary soon. But proper forum theory indicates that the split should occur when the number of posts in a forum becomes too great. The subcategory at the Shroomery is actually very cool and maybe could be applied to the cultivation forum here.
I would say when the number of posts (not dumb posts sometimes found in the Smoke Lounge) pushes a post off a forum in 12-24 hours is when the category has been overloaded.
This prevents people from coming up with forum ideas and insisting they are necessary only to have a barren forum that gets less traffic than Podunk, USA.
The categorical labeling allows people to view all the topics should they choose, instead of clicking clicking clicking to all the forums.

Can we get a paraphernalia forum? Doesn't have to be that exact name (obviously) it would just be nice to have a place to post pictures of new pipes without them getting lost in the mish-mash of the smoke lounge.

An ethnogarden type forum would be awesome. That would designate a place to talk about growing other plants other than marijuana.

The "paraphanalia" section will ultimatley be the RateMyPipe section on the main site. RateMyPipe started as its own website at RateMyPipe.com a couple of years ago... right now its functionality isn't the best as we imported all the data from the old site, and are now using different software to manage it. Eventually, that'll all be worked out and the RMP section of the front-end will allow you to display, rate, comment, and easily browse through everyone's pieces.

Let's go get that trffic first.

But if a few extra people might get stoned it's just too dangerous to try. -FF I got $50 on Barack!!!
