[SORRY JACKSON. MOVED TO MEMBER ISSUES FORUM. WELCOME BACK BTW. :slight_smile: ]

2

I think therefore I agree.

“I was on a pretty decent philosophy forum, and the whole thing was just assimilated into ask2know, a general forum with pretty terrible formatting. There are a lot of dissatisfied members of the former philosophy forums looking for a good home, and this is without a doubt the finest forum I’ve ever come across on the web.”

I came from there as well. A philosophy subforum would be very nice, although I’ve been looking for an economics forum and this seems pretty good from what I’ve seen.

Jackson is back in action?

I agree that it should be a sub-forum & not a group, since groups are largley ignored, & the sub-forum is more instantly useful being more tied into the rest of the forum.

It would also help reduce the popping up of un-related tangents in a thread, methinks.

I always thought it should be organized around Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (just like the degree they offer at Oxford).

I hope to be, but it got a little crazy there for a while, and I felt I was causing more trouble than my original intent. My hope is that I can find a niche here again, but I don’t want to just be everyone’s gadfly either.

That’s a great idea, and I think it really helps flesh out the forum. I’ve been applying Mises’ action axiom at the philosophy forum I was at with pretty favorable results. Human Action doesn’t exclusively deal with economics, it’s principles can be applied to many branches of philosophy, as I’m sure we’re all aware.

Good to see you Jeb, welcome aboard! You seem to have been an old hat around the philforums, so maybe you can tell some of the folks to join!

[SAVE THE BARBS FOR THE ISSUES FORUM]

Ahoy, Ollie! Don’t pretend like you didn’t miss me…

As far as your suggestion: huh? What the hell is a “WYSIWYG text editor”?

What the hell is that SRS? over Walter Block supposed to mean??!? It drives me crazy every time I see it. Please explain before they have to take me to the loony bin!
