So here is the deal with the subforums. they are empty because people just weren't using them. what i am thinking we should with them is leave them empty unless people want to use them. i would be willing to unlock subforums for people is they want to have a place for their friends to go to chat about whatever they want. i may be opening one subforum for myself so that anyone in the guild can come by and chat with me about whatever they want. i would be willing to do the same for others if they: (1) made a donation to the guild (2) post in this thread that they are interested and that they will follow the terms of service for gaia (3) will police the subforum themselves.

it would be one way to use the subforums and to get people to invite new members to the guild.

if anyone has other ideas for the subforums please post them here. i am interested in hearing them.
