3) There is a distinct need for an "INGO Statement of Purpose".
I have seen several people post his or her opinion of what INGO is to them: a hobbyist site; a political site that discusses guns; a place to talk to Hoosiers. I believe there is a clear need for a "statement of intent" or a "mission statement" to be drafted by Fenway, who may at his discretion receive input from the moderators and members, to define exactly what this board is and answer the question "What is INGO?". That would greatly help us make the kind of decision we're trying to make in this thread.
I made that post some time back in the thread wherein Fenway solicited members' feedback regarding the Politics, Laws, and 2A subforum. Since that time, I have seen several threads which leant support to my suggestion. Generally these threads have been heavily related the Politics, et. al subforum and to how people use INGO.
Is INGO, or should it be, a "gun topics only" forum?
Is INGO, or should it be, a place to find news on politics, laws, current events, guns, and/or weather?
Is INGO, or should it be, a website that allows for discussion on all topics among people who live in Indiana?
These questions, or similar, may greatly affect how Fenway and the Mods determine what posts, topics, or members are and are not welcome here. It is my opinion that an INGO Constitution will be, and has in fact already become, necessary as membership continues to increase.
All for now...
