sports, leezure and entertainment...

...why doesn't sports fall under the category of entertainment? why does it get it's own category, because to me, it belongs under entertainment.

so board.

Because it's not staged like a "production" of your favorite drama/sit-com/etc...

Unless you're one of those faggots that watch wrestling and think it's a sport. :rofl:

you're right.

in that same argument, music is not "staged" like my favorite drama/sitcom/etc

all are productions though. even sports.

It'd probably be a good idea to merge the two. We have way too many different topics covered, with only about two dozen consistent posters. Especially since a third of our consistent posters don't come her for actual conversation, just to be silly.

For my part, Sports and LEEZURE is the only area I don't bother to visit. There is nothing in there that interests me and I'd be peeved if I had to wade thru posts about sports posse's to read about entertainment topics.

i'm against a merge

sports is sports, entertainment is entertainment

you want to be more specific, remove the LEEZure part of the forum name

while you're at it, change the subtitle to "jesus fucking christ nobody gives a shit about NBA give it a fucking rest"

EDIT: although the current subtitle is better than i thought it was hehehe

It's the 2nd most popular sport in the nation, and it's the 2nd most talked about sport in the forums.

So?

And it's a poster not from his nation that bumps all the NBA posts.

We could always change the forum name to "If I, Brinstar, pretends to know something about manly sports like Football, maybe, just maybe, people won't figure out that I'm really an androgynous fruitcake like my hair twin Andy Dick."

Or we can just leave it as is since most people who post in that forum seem to like basketball.

exactly...

so, why complain about it?

If 10% of the threads are about a highly popular sport, and SEVERAL posters (Arlos, Phlegm, Lyion, Zan, Xaiv, Rotj, Vonk, more) are very involved in NBA discussions... why do you care if it's brought up? I don't click on your cat threads, don't click on my NBA threads. The NBA has about 1 billion more fans than mixed martial arts (another sport that I love) but you don't blast D.Duck for his MMA threads.

You merge the sections, i will strike you down with great vengance and furious anger .....

I wasn't complaining, only wondering.

Awesome forum edit. At first I kinda thought Jay's hands on approach was funny and all, now it seems like he's just pissing all over the place to mark his territory.

Forum edit? What happened?

Lionking · Post by **Lionking** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 4:41 pm

If you merged the sports and entertainment sections, you would have to call the new section ESPN and that named is trademarked.

Where everyone discusses football, and two dorks try to pretend people actually like the NBA and spam what should be in PMs.

Oh, I can't edit that.

I don't care either way.

Many of the discussions about movies in the entertainment section give information as to whether or not to buy the DVD or watch it in the movie theatre. I buy almost every DVD that comes out (even Korean, Chinese, and Thai movies).
