Just wondering if there would be enough interest on the board to have 2 threads for gameday and GBU, split in terms of optimists and pessimists, a thread for each.
The only reason I ask is I get tired of wading through millions of, in my view, absurdly negative comments particularly in these threads, to try and find the couple of useful insightful ones. I really like this site for finding and sharing stuff with people with a shared interest in the crows, but I have no interest in viewing or pronouncing that interest in the same way the emotional reactors / pessimists do, they just make me lose interest in coming on here.
As to how to split it up, there's a group of clear optimists (me, BACCS, Jenny for example) and a group of clear pessimists (I'll let them fill this out) and there's also a large group of could go either-ways. I think the threads would be able to largely self organise, though the optimists thread might reserve the right to boot out people if they let them in at the start, only to find them "not a great fit" down the track.
I don't see how its a harm to do this, its not like 2 extra threads will use up all the memory storage on big footy's server, each group can look what the other one is saying if they want, no rule against that, just only comment in your own group. If it doesn't work, as in there is no interest in, say, for example the optimist threads, then we'll stop it and go back to how it was.
It might decrease the amount of spats between the optimists and pessimists in the other threads as well.
Just a thought. What's others thoughts??
