Why restrict yourselves? Just move the discussion to a forum that's

STOP IGORING EXTRODOT.ORG... THE INSTITUTE CREATED IT PRECISELY TO GIVE
YOU AN ALTERNATIVE TO THIS STONE-AXE OF AN ONLINE FORUM. USE IT.

Extrodot has built in subject categories, peer-review, rich content
capabilities, filtering, and a customizable appearance. It also has a
person quite willing to tailor the code until it fits with your
collective desires perfectly.
