Default Okay

OK, surely we should just group things together based on interest. We could have a fly-fishing, southern bbq recipes, middle-east peace suggestion category lumped together. Based on your comments, that while these subjects have no logical connection they are similar in that they have limited/niche participation!

Dude really????? Come on seems like you are trying to pick a fight here. I know I don't post much here but I read everyday and you really start a lot of threads and this one is just stupid!!! IMO is that how you say that in the internet land???? The reason I say stupid (again IMO) this site is what it is and leave it at that.

Two sections just just for T206. Both under the main forum and the B/S/T.

I would restructure the site so people are not allowed to post multiple inane threads under the assumption that if they do not post three times a day the board will no longer exist.

The only complaint I ever had with Net54, and wanted changed, was when for awhile every time you loaded a page you had to scroll past all the cards for sale listed by year to get to the posts. But that got fixed and to me there isnt much else wrong with it. I love it!! Thanks Leon! Great job!

I'm in favor of that idea. As long as there's no tequila. that just makes people want to fight.

Default my idea

I tried to get Leon to do this awhile ago. I suggested a forum for the card of the day where a random person picked by Leon each morning would have 24 hours to post their card of the day which we would all discuss. If they didnt post within 24 hours the ghost of Ty Cobb would spike them in their sleep.

Cobb ghost = willing participant
Leon= wet blanket

Basketball and Hockey probably should be separated, but there's not exactly alot available pre-1980, so keeping them lumped seasonally as the "winter sports" is fine. If you were to drop the pre-80 tag, then I'd say they probably should be separated.

Now as far as an idea for a change that I could think of, would be to add wrestling to the boxing category.. Basically, Boxing/Wrestling/Martial Arts would be lumped into one category as the "fighting sports".

You could look at people's posts, and if more than 1 in 5 were condescending, rude, inflammatory, or just plain off-putting, they would automatically have this avatar.

well i guess I won't be able to access much of the site then!

Since the focus of the board is on pre-war baseball cards, I think its fine that postwar, hockey, football, flyfishing, watercooler, and food recipes are lumped together. They should be thankful they were even given space on the forum!

p.s. Great job Leon!
