San, Since you have already decided to move the political discussion to the new section, everything else should be categorized as well. In the reply section, there should be a scroll down for section reflecting different categories, which should be REQUIRED for the user to select BEFORE posting the message. Then you do not have to monitor each and every thread and decide where it belongs ;-). But I like the way it is (or it was). Once I am in Sajha I can see the most talked about thread right in the front page rather than going on different location. I rarely visit different sections in sajha other than the main kurakani section. I am not a politician nor have political ambition however I do write more on political side than on any thing else due to the current situation in Nepal which is affecting us all. Personally I am less inclined to visit "politics" section. My 2 cents. On the side note: I think you should consider the main target market that you want to serve. Who is the intended target population? For example, college kids who just came to US from Nepal, people who have already completed their education and are employed in professional areas, people who are doing odd jobs etc. The point I am trying to make is if you want to make Sajha popular you should consider the market that you are trying to capture or want to retain what you already have. Since Nepali Diaspora will only continue to grow there will be a time for you to decide which type of population that you will serve or who is your intended "target population". I am sure you want to accommodate everyone and anyone who has little bit of interest in Nepal however I am sure you know that it is not possible. Please make a decision based on the needs of the current market population rather than comments from some users who are more inclined towards humor section or want to see sajha more like a flirting place and like to keep away from intellectual discussions. Hence, my 2 more cents.
