What new forums would you like us to add?

So far we have a general and a mma forum.

Would you like to see..

Boxing & Kickboxing?
Music?
Television?.......

I'd like to see a boxing and K-1 forum for sure. Amon others I think we should have a Multimedia forum installed, a training and nutrition forum, and maybe a forum where we discuss about music, movies, and television all in one place.

Other than that I think we're good. We don't want to add too many forums, or else we'll turn out too much like the other crappy competition boards.

I see the new Boxing/K-1 forum, but are the other forums I suggested going up? I think some of the other forums would be good too.

personally,

i like the way we have it with one exception, add the fitness part, like on the old forum. other than that, like robby said don't add too many to make the board crappy. remember this is the best mma board on the net.

I want to hear what other members would like to say too before I make the changes.

Site administrator-I'm fine with just the main two, but a k-1/boxing forum I think would make alot of others happy.
Just whatever it takes as long as this board remains how it's been, which is the best mma-message board around.

How about a general sports forum (for NFL, MLB and NBA)?

or a Pro Wrestling one?
I remembered quite a number of people had an interest in a pro wrestling forum.

A Pro Wrestling forum would be quite good. There are a lot of pro wrestling fans here.

I'll leave the Sports forum decision up to you and the rest of the members on the forum.

I like both of those ideas. It seems that every once in a while when a pro wrestling topic comes up some posters feel the need to defend "real fighting" while taking shots at sports entertainment. A pro wrestling forum could help keep the peace, and those of us with legitimate interest could learn alot from guys like Cbear who's a pro wrestling historian.

A general sports forum sounds good, but I see great potential for "flaming" since people tend to become emotionally attached to their teams. More so than to individuals like in MMA anyway.

I don't think a pro-wrestling forum would be good, let's keep it mma and other related topics.

I too like a minimum of forums. When there are too many, it seems like people turn into forum police spending far too much time bitching that a post is in the "wrong" forum. Pleaseeeeeeeee don't split MMA up by Pride, UFC, KOTC, etc.... That drives me nuts since there is so much cross over and idea sharing.

1) MMA
2) Boxing/kickboxing
3) General
4) Nutrition/Health
5) I'm ok with general sports as posts would heat up with whatever sport is hot at the time. Don't need it anymore specific than that.
6) Pro wrestling. Well.....other than Keita and myself, not sure anyone would ever look at it. However the selling point for it is that Inoki runs in both MMA and Pro Wrestling circles and MMA has a long history coming from pro wrestling. As long as members don't go ballistic we can keep the pro posts incorporated in the MMA (since there aren't that many). However, if most prefer it split out, then add a pro forum. Certainly, all can visit or ignore any forum they like. My gut tells me that most posts are going to be more MMA related such as Inokis mixed shows of works and legit fights, so just keep it in MMA section.
7) How about a Statistics or History forum? Keita has often had to post organizations records by groups such as Pancrase to fill people in. And not just stats but how they started and who the major players were or are. Fans today hear names like Maeda, Takada, Inoki, Ishii and barely know who they are. I think Keita could give us some great information to start with. Examples might look like this......
Pancrase history
UWFI history
Shooto history
RINGS History
This is alot of work for whoever wants to do the entry work and fact checking would be their responsibility. This could either be very nice or f*cked up beyond belief. :D If not as a forum, this would make a nice permanent addition to the board--"History of MMA Promotions: Capsule profiles of each."

IF there was a pro wrestling forum, I'd post in it..... :D

It's really up to the administrator when it comes to the forums. I'm perfectly happy any which way the admin goes.

I'm all for a Pro Wrestling forum. The bottom line is if you're not interested in a particular forum don't post there. Simple. In an unrelated topic, I was starting to get pissed off that someone stole Cbear's avatar until I saw the signature at the bottom. Welcome back bear. :)

you know something, I notice that this forum tends to get a little slow at late night around 2 AM or so and that's very bad in terms of theplay by play's for the Pride PPV's. Anyway this can be fixed?
