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.
-Big Jim (and just for Nico, I haven’t watched Lost in three weeks)
I *gulp* agree with Jim. Make sure we still get your opinions & keep it simple (not too many forums).
i dont think sawyer was being serious , i think he meant it as who the fuck do you think you are even talking to me.
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.
Hi all!
I like this forum!!
