On the eve of another big football weekend, the main board is looking very preseason. Time to separate the other stuff from the football posts?
Don't think there's any need. Just keep the spoilers off the tidy football threads. Mike seems to be addressing that.
Other boards seem to have a number of different sections eg https://www.villatalk.com
I'm not that interested in our politics board, so i avoid it and therefore don't get irritated by the same old people discussing the same old boring shite.
If we had a non-football section then people who only want to talk football could avoid it.
People who only want to talk football manage to avoid non-football threads just fine on here, it's not a difficult task.
Then there's the people who claim to only want to talk football but post all day long in non-football threads.
There's a big difference but it's very easy to tell who is who.
I couldn't agree less, this board is best as one big melting pot.
ignore the posts you don't like, it's not hard
How could we accommodate Mrs Steve R, if it was only football
(I can't put a after it, as it might upset someone
Personally I don't mind seeing a bit of humour in a football thread, after all the game itself, and this board, is supposed to be fun isn't it?
The age old problem though is how much humour is acceptable before it crosses the line and spoils the thread.
The tricky bit is that for each of us that line is in a different place.
I like a bit of everything. football, the off topic stuff and the pisstaking, but it's frustrating when you've got people with no interest in football derailing the football threads. They know who they are.
If people have got no interest in talking football there's plenty of threads they can post their unfunny quips on without derailing tidy threads.
While there should be football threads pinned at the top, the strength of this board is it's varied discussion points (including political) and shunting these off to another board kills that variety as people stop looking for them.
If you want more football talk then start a football thread or add to an existing thread.
This. Without even mentioning all the amazing advice you get from helpful fellow posters. You'd lose all that with a Football Only forum. I wouldn't have ever seen the 'West Indian Lady sofa' thread as one personal example And more seriously, there's a hopefully still ex-alcoholic who was helped in a moment of need.
