Would it be a good idea to leave the Announcement Forum as "read-only"...?

I keep seeing the "new-posts" logo beside it and thinking there's a new announcement all the time, when instead it's just somebody's two-word reply. :huh:

The whole idea of having announcements is to notify the entire board of a specific topic... to draw their attention to something in particular.

If people want to discuss the topic, or offer a "thankyou" or "well-done"... they can do so in the chat section.

How do you guys feel about that?

I'm with RZ on this one.

It can be a bit irritating to see lists of 'Thank you', 'Works for me', 'OK', etc...

Would perhaps be better read only for Admins to let us know what's new, etc...

My 2 cents...
