Viewing a list of all message board topics can be handy for
several reasons. As the Web Site Administrator, you're in charge of organizing the message board and making sure
that participants can easily find the topic they want to read. You also must make sure that all topics are appropriate
for your Web Site. For example, if a topic is completely unrelated to the Web Site or is inappropriate for readers
of all ages, you may want to delete it.
