View Full Version : Olympics sub-forum

If it is possible (and I know it is :suspect:) could there be an Olympics sub-forum made in the sports forum? it could just be there until the Olympics are over, and it would make things a whole lot easier.
If we only have one thread to discuss the games in, there are going to be a load of people discussing entirely different things at the same time. For example, whilst I wittily comment on the Badminton, someone else may be commenting on the horsey events. This creates a whole load of confusion.
If we have a sub-forum, there can be different threads for different sports, such as a running thread, a football thread, a swimming thread, and so on. This would result in a much more free flowing discussion of the games.
It would also mean that the sports forum itself would not be littered with Olympics related topics, making it easier for people not interested by the games to find topics on the sports that they are interested in.

Not sure it's worth it given the short length of it and I doubt it will get THAT many posts in it
Think it's a good idea.. can think of a few people that will talk about it once it starts

I'm an Olympic addict. Or at least I was with Athens, Sydney and Beijing. I'll probably post in it a lot.

Who is eddie the eagle edwards rowing against in the karate this year?
Think it would be in TIBB's best interests to make me Mod during the Olympics so i can sort out the Olympic section and make sure it's active :idc:

You're going to give us all herpes, aren't you? :(
Going to make a separate thread for every event of the Olympics
Jayson

That's the plan
If we actually do get this sub-forum it'll make things so much easier

Well, neither of us can judge properly as we weren't here then, but look at the Sports forum. No-one posted there until the left few years.
