Editorials & Other Articles needs to be a main forum!

22. Trashing GD would be a really horrible idea for any DUer. It's the main forum here for a reason. It IS DU.

I wouldn't bother with E&OA as a main forum. My recollection of how it worked in the past when it was more visible was that it still had very little traffic compared to LBN, GD and the Lounge. And trying to force people to post there would likely backfire.

Look, DU forums are never going to be a perfect fit for any of us. All of us see threads we just scroll past. You see complaints fairly often in GD from people who'd like certain posts banned so they wouldn't have to waste precious seconds scrolling past them. Of course those people rarely agree on what should be banned.

It's GENERAL discussion. It should be a wide range. That's why it gets the activity it gets.
