TSL WebPoll

The Student Life Open Forum, if you noticed, has been closed due to neglect and a terrible layout. I cannot decide whether to implement a new one, and so I've left the choice up to you, oh fellow TSL readers. My questions: should TSL implement a new online forum? And would you take part in it?

No, and don't call me apathetic, it's just that I'd more likely write a formal letter to the editor than post something in your forum.
Maybe, but only if there was some sort of community in place that would actually listen and respond to what I said.
Yes, I think a place where students can discuss relevant issues is needed, and I would take part in it.
