Excellent. Poll created (Actually I made it before you replied, but no one needs to know that )

Great idea with the poll.

I will create a poll and we will vote on this, how does that sound?

I see valid points from both sides.

A poll for site changes. I'm down with that.

I see valid points from both sides.

The latest news will always be on top, however if one of the topics prompts discussion which is the point of discussion boards, it will fall off the first page and die out prematurely.   New topics will always start at the top and fall down as newer ones are posted.

+1

This is how it should be.

This makes sense in theory.  It will create an issue when a thread gets discussed in more detail or evolves over time into a multi-page thread.  I would like to avoid having to search for those threads when there are multiple pages of news in the future. 

I think latest post should be up top.  How else can we have a discussion?

I see brad's point.

new replies are not cycling the topics to the top of the thread.

seems to be working now.
