The main problem of the BS section is lack of focus in many of the discussion threads. Interesting contributions are interspersed with repetitive bullshit, often ignoring the thread topic.

"Jane's Rainbow" seems to point to a possible solution: separate space for distinct mentalities. OTOH, such megathreads make it very difficult to sustain more than one discussion simultaneously; they are like chats.

If/when Mudcat is switched to one of the standard forum software packages, as announced some time ago by Max, we can have a whole hierarchy of topic groups. Some admins make the mistake to create too many such groupings, or ones that are not named with sufficient precision, possibly overlapping. Otherwise that hierarchy is a good idea, with a few little drawbacks.
