I have an idea I'd like to share to improve this forum

[Rocktheworld]

It should be a forum where bad ideas make their way through the colliseum. Think "EARN YOUR RECOGNITION AND YOU WILL BE FREE". We establish rounds of BY-voted posters and if someone's rejected idea/theory makes it past Fishy (end boss duh) it becomes BY canon never to be dosputed again.

It's what should have happened to the pizza thread after page 5.

I think we should start a new forum called 'The Octagon'. Posters would use 'The Octagon' forum to take their personal grievances and battles with other posters to instead of derailing and destroying legitimate threads on the hoops and football boards. When it starts getting personal, tell the poster you're beefing with, "Let's take it to the Octagon." Other posters can also tell posters to go there (or go somewhere else that's quite a bit hotter.....). If any other posters are interested in continuing to witness the battle, they can follow them to the Octagon. It's a win-win. Posters can act as immaturely as they want, everyone else will be spared from reading it, and threads will be kept on track (hey, a guy can dream, right???).

We have that already it's called the cesspool and it is a blood sport.

Let me tell you, at this point, it doesn't matter.

When you look up the term WINNING in the dictionary, there's no more Charlie Sheen. All you get now is a beautiful lovely picture of debonair and handsome Tom Brady.

Oh, I'm sure we'll find out they did something else illegal between now and the Super Bowl....

Maybe the Boneyard is the Octagon.

Have you ever thought of that?

Boneyard Boxing in the basement of the XL Center. Three 3 minute rounds. I'll sell popcorn.

I just visited the cesspool for the first time. It's not half as scary as the snowflakes make it out to be.

Yep. They can't take losing.

As bad as Palatine's posts are here and in the football forum, the cesspool is where his posts truly take their final-boss form

Make a post and have @ use his vocabulary in the charge of finding 1000 ways to call you stupid.
It's not for the faint hearted

 

[mauconnfan]

I have no opinion either way because as you would all know the Octagon wouldn't be a place for a person of my level headed thinking.

Please don't tag over here. It's not good for anyone involved.

Yep it would be easier just to create the sanity and courteous room. No one would have to move. That place would be empty.

You beat me to it.

There's a special All Star Edition of the Octagon for you RE Brimah.

Trial by Combat

This is a terrible idea. Providing a dedicated place to rip members of the team will only make trashing our players acceptable (It isnt). Honest criticism and analysis is fair, that's why we're here. But many posters here don't realize when they've crossed a line, and others have a false sense of entitlement to ignore the line altogether.

At the end of the day, we're all fans of our university sports team(s). (except JSM who has been on ignore for my sanity). Therefore we shouldn't be ripping teenage kids who dedicate themselves to our program. Providing a dedicated space to do that would be a disaster.
