Before the splinter boards, the nonny boards served the function of posters being able to discuss issues that weren't allowed on the SDMB or were allowed but would garner posters (sometimes undeserved) bad reputations for criticizing the administration. Those discussions still take place there but not to the extent they once did. They were also a good place to get juicy gossip which was sometimes true and sometimes not. CarnalK's site has a good link mine of interesting information that was mostly dug up by nonnies.
