Re: New season, new features, new forums?
How about a football forum so our joke/pun/politics/boobs threads don't get cluttered up?

Re: New season, new features, new forums?
How about a fishing Forum, Hartley could be a Coderator. He got the mouth for it:popcorn:

Swines, coming on here enjoying themselves etc.....
Maybe if the comedy on here suddenly became funny, people wouldn't mind

Re: New season, new features, new forums?
Ok. After seeing the replies I'll put up a match thread a couple of days ahead of a game. Will also sticky a score predictions thread to run alongside. I may add an announcement with links to other clubs forums so you can have a couple of clicks to check out other teams boards.
There is an infraction system that we've never used. I'm going to try and keep on top of threads and I will issue infractions if people deliberately troll, derail or abuse / post insensitive stuff.
This is a real tricky area to moderate between comedy, insensitivity, etc. But I'll try. Infractions come with a points award, run up 6 points and you get a ban. Maybe set it for 48 hours.
I don't know what happens when an infraction is issued. I guess you get notified. I will issue a couple tonight as tests. From tomorrow they will be real. Might work, might not.

I didn't think I'd see an argument for keeping the adverts - but here we are.

Re: New season, new features, new forums?
I have asked for ads to be removed. Now we can post YouTube and Twitter in opening posts as that ad has been removed. But I can't influence much more. I can only suggest ad blockers.

Oooh, I can see people on five points making sure they get the sixth on a boring Wednesday morning in order to give themselves a clean slate for a few drunken rants on the weekend.
I assume there will still be the option for a straight red?

The equivalent of picking up a fifth yellow before a league cup tie.

Just noticed that at the bottom of the window of my previous reply I've got a little yellow card, if I click on it it tells me why I've received the infraction.
Once I've reviewed the video I'll be launching an appeal.

Looking at my profile, there's a tab for infractions.
When I click on it, it tells me I've got a yellow - 0 points for a reply in this thread and a Red - 3 points, for insulting another member (Telling Nugent he could cash in his flex voucher at a home game for the following home game)
Seems to be different icons for mobile and full site.

Yeah, I got that Mike, was just giving you feedback as you seemed unsure about what notifications users were given.
I notice the cards and points haven't been rescinded mind!! Due to fall off at the end of the month :hehe:

Maybe some are scared of being excluded from posts that sit at the top of the board. What with them having zero interest on football an' all.

Off topic posts in threads should be deleted.
I mean, how often can :thunbup: or :lincon: be funny and/or relevant?

Re: New season, new features, new forums?
On the bluebirds forum Otto (Blue in the Face) came up with the idea of having a section for player threads where each player had his own thread. I thought that was a decent idea.

How about man of the match votes? Run for 48 hours after a game, league table for players who won?

Re: New season, new features, new forums?
Anything that will get more football threads is a yes from me

Re: New season, new features, new forums?
On another forum, they have a sticky listing all the live games on tv that week. Not sure how they do it, but it's handy.

Re: New season, new features, new forums?
I know Blue in the Face started that Youth development thread last season, but maybe we should have a separate under 23/ youth match thread just to read a report on their respective matches.

Speaking of which the U23 fixtures have just been released.
