Dear members,

We have changed the name of the Dhammic-Free-For-All Forum to the Open Dhamma Forum.
http://www.dhammawheel.com/viewforum.php?f=16" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
It is the same forum with the same topics. We felt that the name change would reflect our vision for the forum being the venue for respectful and friendly yet forthright and robust discussions.
I hope you like the name change.
kind regards,

Ben

PS: Please take a moment to re-acquaint yourself with the special guidelinesfor the Open Dhamma Forum:

I kinda liked the rough-and-tumble no-holds-barred trial-by-combat implications of the old name, even while thinking it wasn't a particularly Buddhist way of discovering the truth.
I wonder if the name change will encourage Right Speech?

I have to say that I think the name change has affected the "Open Dhamma" forum. Seems to me like there is much less discussion there as of late. The one good thing about the name "Dhammic-Free-For-All" is that it really caught people’s attention which probably had an effect on the frequency of topics there. I guess now they are more spread out amongst the other forums. Although it has seemed quiet on dhammawheel in general recently, so maybe that is why.

Not complaining, just an observation.

Greetings SDC,

My observation has been the volume of discussion goes through waves. There are quiet periods and busy periods. I am happy if we have fewer postings of a higher quality than volume for its own sake.
kind regards,

Ben

I can't disagree with that. :smile:
