to sports talk.

Fucking unreadable now. I was going to make this thread earlier and then I see that a thread about Real Madrid signing a 7 year old got locked...fuck you nfutuaskdfajldk. Im not reading a long running thread about fucking soccer. I will click on one as ridiculous as the specific thread. Stop locking threads you cum dumpster.

Fred...time for some new mods in sports talk. I vote for Ernie.

Yea there are some biased faggots up in sports talk. Soccer needs as little coverage as possible anyway because of how un american it is so you're in a lose lose anyway

Because nobody wants to read an extra thread taking up space about some fucking 7 year old kid playing soccer. Put it in the fucking soccer thread so we don't have to see when trying to sift through shit that actually matters. Your stupid 7 year old kid playing soccer thread wasn't needed, and I'm glad it was locked so I didn't have to spend the next 48 hours seeing it along with other soccer threads sitting at the top.

this same disease infects Entertainment

you can't make a thread about even a highly anticipated album - it gets locked and you are directed to the "MUSIC OF 2011" thread

but people are tripping all over themselves to make a thread for every goddamn shitty movie that is released

what the fuck

If I wanted to read about Soccer, the last place I would go is a board dedicated to Sports.

I'm sure the thread would be fine in whatever section we keep the poker and womens basketball stories.

I agree with this to an extent.

It's almost counter-intuitive to have a catch-all thread for every general topic. Especially when they get heavy in the amount of pages, where you eventually have to:

A. Risk re-posting information found on page 25 out of 230
or
B. Sift through 230 pages to see if your issue was already addressed - colloquially referred to as "Episode 1: Balls-Deep in the Thread".

never gotten that either, why not have a movies of 2011 thread as well

and a tv shows of 2011

and video games of 2011

that'd save all sorts of internet space

I mean, I knew what he meant too. It's just "what he meant" and the general definition of a sticky thread are two completely separate things.

That's all.

lol I don't care enough to get involved in e-drama...but...aside from Chit Chat (and that's pushing it), there is no section that has so many new threads created on a daily basis that there isn't room for all updated threads and new threads to fit on the same page. So what exactly is the issue if a repeat thread bumped the other threads down the list? They are all still easily viewable from page 1.

[Edited on August 8, 2011 at 11:24 PM. Reason : as far as repeat because of sticky/general threads go...not because someone posts the same thing 3x]

and the fewer new threads there are because of these stupid rules, the more bored the mods get and the more likely they are to lock new threads

it's a fucking vicious cycle

ONE THREAD PER SECTION IS ALL WE NEED GUYS

STOP WASTING BITS

By the sticky logic, all of chit chat should be one thread

Dude, stop confirming just how god damn lame you are. Just keep hiding you troll. Are you disfigured or something, is that why you've never shown your face around these parts?



How about it Ken, new mod and new culture in Sports talk for the upcoming school year. You do want page views don't you?

i agree, it's retarded

so do many others message_topic.aspx?topic=600207

p.s. i'd read about the 7 year old but could give a fuck less about soccer as a whole

go in there and make an OFFICIAL 2011-2012 SPORTS THREAD then get all pissy when they don't use it

the thread i recommended it be posted is on page 2 with hardly any recent posts. you're just lazy if you can't "sort through" that.

It's actually scary how absolutely obsessed Chance is with knowing what I look like. Like...I would probably call the cops and look into taking out a restraining order on him...if he wasn't just as anonymous as I am.

I'm not sure how you'd take my post to say that I'm mad. Pretty far from it. I was just pointing out that A) Chance practically begs to see a picture of me every time we have an interaction (which is creepy as fuck, IMO) and B) I have just as many pictures of myself in my gallery as he does. It's pretty god damn amusing, if you ask me. So, to answer your question, no, I not mad.

Also, no, I didn't fuck El Borracho, but I did see her once at a grocery store in Durham, so I can see where that might be confusing to you.

Yea, there's a fine line there. We don't want sports talk looking like Inside Carolina, but locking every thread that falls into some broad category of sports is a little much IMO.
