We are moving forward with this new forum. At the minute, we're looking at how best to implement it into our current structure, and where it would go, so over the next few days /weeks that'll be one of our priorities.
Safe spaces are definitely a needed thing, so that's something that won't disappear.
However, we need to ensure that we're not misgendering others (something I can only apologise for if I've done that by the forums).
Im liking the ideas, and thanks Alex for bringing it up.
