Forum needs a sports section

[Polak]

Does anyone else agree that their should be a sports section in the forum?

 

[Darkchaoself]

Ehh, maybe, not many sports topics are made, so i think we can just keep it to general discussion. Maybe if there is an increase in topics. So i say no.

 

[PurgeandFire]

No. This is not a socializing forum, well, not that much. Besides, those topics fit in the general discussion. If the admins see a flood of them, they'll be forced to make a new forum.

 

[Ghan]

I don't recall ever seeing a sports topic, except maybe in the news section.
No need, therefore, not going to happen.

 

[Ninva]

No sports. D: All the sport forums I've seen have died. Moderators go away after awhile too, so at one point people make their own RP haven there.

Actually I think this is the first time in the history of these forums that someone has mentioned sports LOL!

I think I've mentioned rock climbing before, though the site doesn't attract too many physically active members.
A sports section would be pretty void of anything.

Emjlr3 as an exception.

Ryoko was into MMA.

I havent been on these forums long but I've already figured that most of us, (no offense kids) sit on our butts all day, you know, and do graphic or computer stuff, some have a job, but no one is yelling how good the cubs are.. so.. >.>

A sports Section, in a Technical Support forum. Sounds great!!!

Next we could go to a health fitness forum and suggest a thread to talk about cakes!

I hereby officially request a flame/trolling forum.

Man thats funny. LOL. Although if I started this thread I would be mad at those replies but it didn't so here comes the sarcasm.

 

[Sir Gordon]

Same goes as here. Unless there is movement about this topic nothing will be done.

 

[Jindo]

Lol, so much irony and sarcasm in this thread .

I've only ever seen Sports mentioned in the TH News Zone , don't think you'll get much interest in a Technical Support forum .

> request a flame/trolling forum.
I don't think the fact we don't have a forum like that ever stopped people from trolling and flaming.
Considering this...what's stopping you from writing about sports without having a forum for that?

From now on if anyone wants to suggest a new forum - leave at least 10 links to preferably fresh threads on the subject. Without that it's an instant deny.

 

[Rheias]

As Seth (*cries* I miss him) said once: It is Demand then supply, not supply first, and then the demand.

As SFilip said, prove that people discuss this topic, and you'll get your forum. Can you show us few recent threads that have been active that talk about sports?

By the way, I say we should move this thread to humor zone - one of the funniests I saw yet (Just kidding of course).

d3scene has that

I recall a thread started asking what sports people were in. A large number were in Football and there were actually people that were physically active. Some active members too.

I wouldn't mind a sports forum but there are no topics and it isn't going to be made, etc. etc.

The Helper offers free technical support for computer games, computer hardware, and other computer software. Staffed by volunteer tech support workers, The Helper is highly regarded as a premium destination for those who are experiencing technical problems with their computers.

Adding new forums, like sports, the relatively new music and movie forums, broadens the meaning of thehelper.net.

I guess it would bring new members, more traffic. But, it wouldn't be the same thehelper.

It would be thevacationer.net.


(Though, personally, I don't know whether that's bad or good)

P.S I'm very keen on soccer, football etc. All kind of sports. Passively watching from television or practicing them myself.

No, but you have a place to put the threads in.

From now on if anyone wants to suggest a new forum - leave at least 10 links to preferably fresh threads on the subject. Without that it's an instant deny.

Ok, so if I understand you correctly, all I have to do before requesting the flaming/trolling forum is flame a few people and send you the links?

Cool.
