I happened on this site, and feel it says a lot about what brings people back to certain blogging websites.
Seems to me that RR people do a pretty good job, if you consider the criteria set forth.
What makes a good blog?

The discourse here is very much elevated re: the rest of the net...
BUT
RR isn't a blog, and honestly I don't feel like the same criteria should be applied when evaluating a forum.

Yeah, I suppose you're right...
But I thought the guidance was pretty good...

What criteria would ya suggest for our Forum?

Forums in general, I believe, need 3 different things:

1. A relatively large population of posters

2. A unifying topic or theme

3. Lack, or restraint, of censorship
