    It was a default forum section created at the installation of one of the earlier forum software packages. It might have been YaBB SP1 Gold that created it, and we just kept it through all the upgrades and conversions.

    There are other forums among some of our peers that have a "ten-forward" section for their social postings. I believe the term itself comes from Star Trek, The Next Generation.
