Right, except that it's the ones who
do move over from the porn to the discussion that keep this place from stagnating. There are a few who come to the site via other means (usually googling a specific subject, from what I gather) but the vast majority seems to come for the porn and stay for the chatter. With the current system it's easy to make the transition, since it's all on the same page. If we hid the discussion from the porn users then there'd be fewer of them making the jump.
Really, so long as there's no repercussions in terms of bandwidth and the resulting overheard/site speed, I see no reason why the titty board needs to go anywhere at all.
