Sports Forum?

Postby cub3pp » Thu Oct 09, 2003 6:57 pm

i i was wondering, could there be a sports forum? we talk about a wide range of sports here so why not?  it would end my resentment of having f1 posts being in the "autos" section!

I think a sports forum is a good idea, but I don't think we should do it.  The reason is it seems like we have to many forums already.  The general and cafe were designed for all the little topics that we have.  Do we have enough sports posts to deserve it's own forum?  Probably, but the problem that I see is there is simply to many forums already.  Personally, I find it hard to have to navigate all the forums we have already-just seems like we just don't need anymore.

I think maybe a re-organization of the forums might be in order.

I agree with Pipen in that there is a need to reorganize the forum.

I'm not suggesting a wholesale re-organization.

Regarding a seperate "Sport" Forum...

Having noted the number of replies when a "sport" thread is opened it seems to me that most flight simmers are not particilarly interested....
Don't we all get enough of it already, blasted at us day after day, through the media...?
One of my greatest joys is coming here to get away from it all.... ;)... ;)... ;)...!

Cheers all... ;D...!

P.S. do you realise that one of the most popular sports around, is "FISHING"...how many times do you get someone overwhelming you with discussions on that sport... ::)...!!
...not many, I suspect... ;)...!

Fishing is not a sport.  Neither is chess or scuba diving!  For that matter, neither is ballroom dancing! ::)

Fishing is not a sport.


Coarse fishing here in England IS regarded as a "sport",
...but fortunately, we don't get it rammed down our throats day after day in the media, compared to Althetics, Football, Baseball, Cricket, Tennis , Snooker, etc, and all the other guff that envelopes our radio, television, newspapers, etc... >:(...!

Computer Flight Simulator programs are a way of escaping from all this mind-numbing "sports" activity.... ;)...!
...so let's keep it that way...Please... ;)...!

Cheers all... ;D...!

P.S...think to yourself...do we REALLY need a Forum dealing with "Soaps" on the television....for crying out flippin' loud.... >:(... >:(... >:(...?

I'm with Foz on this one. I think there are far too many separate boards already which makes the whole thing unwieldy. It must also make it almost impossible to moderate. It was much better in its original form with just the FS, CFS, Design & General forums. IMHO

Actually, I was hoping more for a Reality TV forum where we could discuss Joe Millionaire and Survivor... ::)
