EarlG ADMIN (1000+ posts) Mon Oct-05-09 03:36 PMOriginal message For your consideration: we are in the process of cleaning up the DU Groups As many of you have already noticed, some of our DU Groups are underused and outdated. While doing some housekeeping, we came up with a proposal to archive a few Groups and re-organize the others into more specific categories, which we think will make navigation easier. (If you don't know what a DU Group is, click here to learn more.) As part of the proposal we also intend to:Include links to related Topic Forums on the new category pages.Allow you to add a forum (or Group) to your My Forums list when you are inside that forum (or Group).Here's what we've come up with, for your review and comment.ON EDIT: To clarify -- if you don't see a particluar Topic Forum included in the lists below, it doesn't mean we're getting rid of that forum. In fact we are not getting rid of any of the Topic Forums. We simply intend to provide links to certain related Topic Forums when we recategorize the Groups, and those are the forums you see included in the lists below.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6702500There's no forum for blind primitives, no forum for illiterate primitives, no forum for non-users of English primitives, no forum for dead primitives.
If all these people can vote Dem, and you know they ALL do, then why can't they get their own forum?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! That's quite an assortment of health-related groups they have there. I bet they're a bunch of fun people to chat with.

Well, they left off a whole lot of races/ethnicities from their list. The entire Arab world is ignored, for instance, as well as the subcontinent. There is still an entire forum related to Al Gore? What on earth can possibly be said?
md11, do you recall what the question was?
