Should This Blog Become a Forum?

This blog has clearly become larger than just one guy bitching about Lost every week.  It’s become a sounding board for great discussions and commentary, and is now getting thousands of visits per week.  So my question to you is - has this site outgrown it’s format?  Should I convert it into a forum in order to faciliate conversation between everyone, or leave it the way it is?  Please vote!

Tyler,
A forum would be great, but it would be nice if you would still post your weekly blog.

I *gulp* agree with Jim. Make sure we still get your opinions & keep it simple (not too many forums).

It was the current format (simple, easy to read, not busy’d with this that and the other) that keeps me visiting every week.

I concur with this dude, not that anyone gives a shit what I think. Plus, Ty, I’m not sure you’re really going to have a lot of fun deleting all of the spam messages that will inevitably show up once the discussion board kicks off.

Thanks for all the votes and comments guys! I guess I will leave it alone for the time being. Most people seem to like things the way they are, and I really don’t want to be a moderator. As you may have noticed, I don’t ever censor comments or posts. Once I implemented the threaded comments (where you can respond directly to another comment) the blog has functioned pretty much like a forum anyways.

Yea.. keep it the way it is. Wordpress is a light cms. forums are resource hungry and will cost you more server power once it starts to grow bigger. Plus, research shows u make more $$ with adsense on wordpress than forums.
