I've forgotten -- how do we petition mods for changes ? Want to split Vegetarian, Vegan and Animal Rights forum ...

There is a Vegetarian, Vegan, and Animal Rights forum, which used to be a good place to go to discuss veggie and vegan recipes, food sources, etc. I realize the Animal Rights advocates have their own battles to fight, but it seems to take the form of "good horror stories" about egregious acts of animal cruelty and how justice must be sought, and there is of course a literally endless supply of such stories. Could we please separate these issues into two completely separate forums, and possible add the word "food" or "cooking" or even the dreaded "lifestyles" to the true veggie/vegan one ?

That forum should be split into at least two - one for food and recipes and one for animal rights activism. It does not serve the needs of the community as it currently exists.
