New Forum Board Suggestion

Post by Fazzy »

I think we need a board on Music, TV, Movies, Phones, and other stuff. Call it "Entertainment". Go in the General Category. That's what I think.
Well, Timmy, aren't you being a cotton-headed ninny muggins.

"Entertainment" seems to General. I find Walruses entertaining but they wouldn't fall under that type of forum.
I like the idea though. However, I think a better name would be "Media".
Or something along those lines,

Well since those four fall in the catagory of electronics, how about calling it 'Electronics' itself?

No, that'd be misleading.
Music/Movies/TV are viewed on electronics,
but they're not really counted as such.
Media is a good name;
it could also include online fads/youtube and stuff.

I personally think that General Chat pretty much covers these topics. There aren't a lot of posts relating to this matter in General Chat so I don't see why this is needed. My 2 cents.

But General Chat is.... too general. Anything could go in there. We need it to be more.... Focused on something. Be more organized.

Actually, he has a point Fazzy. I've seen people make boards, and then they aren't used. If it isn't accepted, the best way to show it's a 'good' idea is to have more, and diverse topics over it in the General chat. Nothing 'spam worthy' like "Who's your favorite artist?", but something that makes you think, based upon the media itself. (Doesn't have to be a lot, generally show it can generate sentence-post response or better.)

If no interest is being shown, or not enough as Pikachu90000 said, then there is no reason for the board. Enough said. You'll all rave over it, but it'll die out in the end, you see? If there is a lot of interest thrown about over it, then it would make sense for it.

Personally though, I like the idea. Just because I am big on Music. The rest aren't my main interest, but I love my tunes, and on 'good' days I can be quite the little 'genius'/'critic'/'interpreter' with me music. c:

If in the future General gets too clogged,
then we can create more specific topics.
Right now, we don't have that many people, so there's no need to create one yet.
It is a good idea, though, for the future.
