Suggestions for the INFP forum?

The idea about "cleaning up the forum" makes me feel uneasy a little bit if you are talking about deleting stuff. But if that's not the intention, I think cleaning it up would be cool if we could organize it into user friendly categories. It's true that the INFPs have a huge variety of thread topics out there and they could be categorized into subareas so that when someone posts a new thread, it can go into its 'proper' subarea.
We could have areas like:
-INFP likes and dislikes
-advice needed for fellow INFP
-advice needed about fellow INFP for non-INFP
-compatibility
-INFP relationships
-loneliness, sadness, depression, suicide etc
-happiness or random thoughts
-INFP secrets
-INFPs in the media (music, movies, literature, whatever)

I don't know... I'm just coming up with these out of my ass here.
But something like that? Maybe even more streamlined so as not to overwhelm the posters with which category is the proper one for them to post in? Because I would hate if someone posted something and then a bunch of people said to them, "hey you posted that in the wrong subarea, you dork" or whatever, because that is just annoying and too rule-oriented.

So something that is organized but not too organized to where it feels overwhelming or daunting. ??

I don't like the idea of making rules as to what people can and cannot post within a thread. It would make me feel paranoid about being judged. right now i feel pretty free to say what I would like to say to people, but if we had some rule like "no advice" or "only post here if it's totally relevant" or "infp only or else your comment will be deleted" or "you can only post 8 times a day max" or whatever, I would be a lot less likely to post anything. the thing I like about it here is that I feel welcome. Those types of things would make me feel less welcome and more watched.

Well let them get offended. It's ok for people to state their opinion, be it an unpopular one, and it's ok for people to state their reaction, be it an offended one. It's probably good for them. As long as the statement isn't typist, sexist, racist, insulting, ad hominem, spam, trolling, ect. At the point it's typist, it doesn't matter what type is saying it, they just shouldn't be saying typist things.

I agree. I think it's important and refreshing to hear what other people think about INFPs, flattering or unflattering. It helps you see yourself from different angles.
