We consider there to be two main categories of Forum topics.

Firstly, there are those which are light-hearted and/or short and/or specifically related to DreamShares. Examples include

Your favourite fairground ride is ... http://www.dreamshares.com/forum/Forum7/HTML/002476.shtml
Quarterly reports on the lifetime top 10 http://www.dreamshares.com/forum/Forum7/HTML/001842.shtml
HELP http://www.dreamshares.com/forum/Forum7/HTML/002474.shtml

These are the most common.

Secondly, there are what we call "feature-style topics". These are a bit longer and hopefully provoke some discussion and maybe controversy. They are the sort we are trying to promote to make the Forum a bit more interesting and thought-provoking. Examples include

FIFA World Rankings http://www.dreamshares.com/forum/Forum4/HTML/003435.shtml
Why can nobody beat Ferrari? http://www.dreamshares.com/forum/Forum1/HTML/000254.shtml
Fox Hunting http://www.dreamshares.com/forum/Forum7/HTML/002481.shtml

Decent feature-style topics will be promoted on the forum homepage. Please tick the relevant box when posting a new topic if you want your topic to be considered as a feature.

Erm, why do you think only some forum topics are displayed in full on the forum homepage?
