Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 27, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted May 27, 2012 Does the 'posting pictures of old footballers' response to certain posts have any basis in anything, or is it just for fun? I'd find it funny regardless, I just wondered whether there was a reason behind it... Â bumclasshero / His Airness invented it about a year ago for dealing with shit threads. There has been a cricket player variant used on the odd occasion, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Seven Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 You'll notice the threads it occurs in quickly get closed becaue it's clearly nowhere near as hilarious as endless Eastenders-related antics of a similar nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 27, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted May 27, 2012 And it's a good way to get wwffan2's threads closed before he bumps them again for no valid reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted May 29, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 We really should have an MMA forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 29, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 I was actually going to ask why we don't have at least an MMA sub-forum. Mind you, there does seem to have been more of an explosion of them recently so maybe we haven't needed one just yet. Â Can neil create such a thing or does it have to be Moo?

Mind you, there does seem to have been more of an explosion of them recently so maybe we haven't needed one just yet. Can neil create such a thing or does it have to be Moo? I'm not sure. I was joking. Mo Chatra went on a campaign to get an MMA sub-forum years ago and it wasn't allowed. We agreed there'd be a monster MMA news thread and then one thread per UFC event. If there are loads of threads, it's probably events close together. I'll have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 29, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 Oh, I remember Chatra going mental about MMA posting, but I didn't realise he was wanting a sub-forum. I think, really, we could do with one now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think, really, we could do with one now. Â I think it works well at the moment. If you had a sub-forum, it'd just be a free for all with hundreds of threads for every news item and show. Being part ofn the main forum, there are normally only 3 or 4 threads active. Â It's similar to the football threads in off-topic. We manage 3 or 4 of those. If there was a sub-form, there'd be millions of threads for all different things. And essentially, this is still a wresting forum so that isn't what anyone is looking for. Â I've checked out the MMA threads and it does just appear that there are a few things going on. The thread for last weeks show will disappear shortly.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 29, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 Dare I say off-topic might be a more suitable home for MMA threads? Seeing as, y'know, it's not wrestling... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted May 29, 2012 Moderators Share Posted May 29, 2012 I say move football conversation to On-topic, that way all the threads I don't read are in one place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Yeah, I don't understand why it's in On Topic. Surely the boxing thread should be in on topic as well then? I'm thinking about starting a Karate thread (I'm not) that should go in on topic then surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
