Since the release of “Atlas Shrugged: Who is John Galt?”, many of you have asked “what’s happening with Galt’s Gulch? Is Galt’s Gulch going away?”
With over 18,000 registered members, Galt’s Gulch Online is now the world’s largest and most active online Objectivist community. And, we're not going anywhere.

One thing I could do without are the occasional moocher "trolls" who intrude into ongoing threads with nauseatingly long and irrelevant posts. Thankfully, these have been few and far between of late. The religious proselytizers seem to have gone away as well.
The format of the site is awkward. Many other forum formats would be an improvement. Invision offers some you could check out.

It would be great to have increased text formatting options and the ability to easily capture a quote of a previous reply.
2.) What do you like least about Galt’s Gulch? Some really good discussions fall way down to where you cannot see them. Perhaps a "featured discussion" or "featured topics" section would be good?
3.) What new features would you like to see?
Again, the "Featured Topics" or just like the Movie Meetups, using the same feature you could have Gulchers set up their own regular meetups in their area.
I like the daily e-mail for what is hot in the Gulch. Maybe we could have another that we sign up for that alerts us when a thread receives a certain number of comments in a short period of time.

3)"member since..."
IM or chat room feature
Kind of like voting up or down on a post.
In this way, newbies can know at a glance if they are dealing with someone legit or not.
That it exists.
2.) What do you like least about Galt’s Gulch?
That it is virtual.
3.) What new features would you like to see?
