Or just banish them to the off-topic forum. Beats further subdivisions.

One thing I learned back in the UseNET days, was that over-categorization of a newsgroup would lead to its marginalization. The "alt" newsgroups were always petitioning UseNET's overlords for permission to set up a real newsgroup with structure. It took an act of [insert favorite deity here] to make that happen, so the organizers of the alt group would typically over-categorize it to make it seem more legit. On occasion one would succeed, and the readers of the alt group would migrate to the new legit group. There, faced with a half-dozen to a dozen subdivisions, they split off into splinter groups that became cult-like, while those who had just enjoyed the camaraderie of their own kind would try to continue in the "general" group. But the general group then would have fewer people in it, and eventually interest would wane, and people drifted away. (this was before Spam killed the whole UseNET network.)

Then people started gathering at forums, which of course could control spam through membership and moderation. I saw the same behavior happening at a number of such forums, including the big one, Mac Central, which was the grandaddy of all Mac forums with a huge following in the 1990s. When they split it up, it became cultish, diluted, and finally closed down, its diehard members roaming the internet for a new home, of which they went through about half a dozen before ending up as a small, invitation-only group on Facebook.

I pass that info on free of charge; no need for Doris to cut me a check.

Shoosh

PS: MOTUNation wins half the battle of cultism and division by forbidding politics and religion. Seriously, that's one of the reason I'm here! I don't know if further subdivision of categories would help or hurt, here, as this is the only forum I've been a member of that forbid politics and religion without being unbearable because of bullying overlords. It's possible that it wasn't the categorization that broke up the many newsgroups and forums I've seen fall, but politics & religion. Keeping that out of here may prevent the cultism and its inevitable attrition that only became possible when there were specific categories which allowed people to retreat and regress to their lowest instinctual form of tribal society.

I think in this instance a sub-forum would be handy, especially for luddites such as myself when it comes to time-limited offers; it could help ensure we don't miss out on some of these deals that seem to disappear as quickly as they surface.

Grab the free Niveau Filter while you are there.
It is very useful.
Also BX Solo.

I downloaded the four free plugs then this:

It turned out to be all four of the free plugins.

Am I alone in wishing that because of:

1) the very non-overwhelming volume of posts about plugin deals; and
2) the generally well-organized and collegial nature of this board,

that nothing changes with respect to such posts?

I, for one, like a one-page location where I can see DP stuff and also get an instant update on any no-brainers that I may have missed (monkeyman, that was not directed at you even though we've missed you; your brain volume is quite comparable to that of hominids).

Please James, leave the no-brainer deals where we can stumble over them!

See? That's exactly what I mean. Bad luck, Rick. Bugger.

Greatest compliment I've had in a while. Thanks bro'! Comparable? Like, a pea is comparable to a basketball. I'll take that!

Gimme a break. I just got a new iPad. BTW, I saw this in a bookstore in the music section yesterday. No attribution, but we know who it is. Bad monkey.
To be clear, it wasn't simply another MonkeyLabs™ Grammar Detective™ call-out, Stoivo; it was the downright filthiness that spewed forth from your usually-well-filtered lips. Very naughty.

Oh, and I guess you got me there, posing with my occasional bed toy, trying to look intelligent. S'pose I failed on two counts: I made out I was playin' when I can't, and everyone knows I'm a beer short of a six pack, no matter the pose. Even I'll admit it's not the most flattering snapshot. Better have a word with the PR department..

Oh my. So that was the origin of the genre known as Monk Rock. I believe his stage name back then was Nicky Rotten Banana.
