View Full Version : Turn "Media Whorehouse" into a section, put media forums underneath it
This is sort of a derivative of my other idea.
"Media Whorehouse" would be one of the divider lines, and then under it would be "Movies" "Games" "TV" "Music"
That way people who wanna discuss the subject or get info can do both much more easily.
Kwanza and I revamped the index so the forums take less vertical space. Forum tags kind of eliminate the problem off too many forums making it cluttered and confusing, since you can just glance now and find the forum you want.
Thoughts?

Yeah I like this idea. Do it. Now.

This is better than all the previous ideas involving the whorehouse, I support it.

Oberlin, there'd still be rules for flaming, so I don't think it'd get very out of hand.
I'm aware, but I was just pointing out that there won't be a great deal of general discussion.
I really don't care one way or the other, but if you make it at least I won't have to sift through the occasional TV thread.

I already put in my two cents about this idea, i think it is great and it would most likely lead to me posting there more. As i'm sure it may do the same for others.

Definitely better than the other ideas. I say we do it.
Less clutter.
More discussion on more threads.
Sounds Good.

My question is, would it require a new moderator seeing how the forum would be split up?
It would require a few new moderators.
Yeah sure, why not.
whatever i'm up for it again i guess.

I'd like to see you mod again.
For some reason :ahe:
It would require a few new moderators.
I'll do it for free.

I'll do it for free.
I'll do it for maybe less.

I agree with this idea, and I want to mod a music or game forum. :ahe:
Oh, by the way, Rob. You do realize you'll have to sort threads from media whorehouse to the appropriate subforums now.

He could always just sort the first page, then dump the rest, if he wanted to be easy. :indiff:
There aren't that many threads.

There aren't that many threads.
I could sort them for you if you give me the appropriate powers. :shobon:
It would require a few new moderators.
I'm all for it.

As long as they make a right choice for mod, It'll be cool. Like me.

It's damn near unanimous for 'yes'. Do it. DO IT!
Smuh'd make a good mod again, I think. He already knows how and shit.

You forgot the part where you try to get Rob to pick you as a mod. :rolleyes:
Anyways, I definitely looks like theres no doubting that this is the right choice, you should probably do it now.
Mr Anorexia
09-30-2007, 6:17 PM
Yeah go Shmuh.
Benjaman
09-30-2007, 6:20 PM
Derelict's a janitor, I thought. And wouldn't there have to more mods depending on how mush you split it?
Derelict
09-30-2007, 6:23 PM
Yes, I am a janitor.
Really, there'd only need to be two more mods. I don't think each forum would need more than a single person.
EDIT: Scratch that; three more mods. I didn't know Allen was the only Media mod right now.
Benjaman
09-30-2007, 6:36 PM
I Smell, Shmuh, and someone else would be my choice.
Mr Anorexia
09-30-2007, 6:39 PM
Mr Anorexia.
Well if anything, I'd be video games and movies.
Mostly the kinds of threads I post in.
Why did this turn into everyone vying for modship?
Mr Anorexia
09-30-2007, 6:52 PM
Yeah I realized this isn't what this thread's about.
Awesome idea I'm all for it.
This thread has turned into a mod application thread.

If I was a whorehouse mod I would totally give out infractions when people do shit like this to threads. :fmita:
Benjaman
09-30-2007, 7:15 PM
If I were one of the mods, I'd put the "Whore" in whorehouse!
This isn't a mod app thread.

You pretty asked for it when you put:

That'll teach me to answer questions.

I'm down, I like this idea.
I realize you don't like making people mods of more than one forums, but I'll volunteer just to separate the threads, if you want me to.

You could actually make these subforums off the GF. Although, there could be problems with that too.
There's no point in making anything a GF subforum.
In all reality it would only work if there were enough topics in each section.
With the MH now, I mostly see Videogames with a side of movies and a hint of music.
So your idea could either bring about more topics, or just make one forum next to dead. It's a toss up, but it wouldn't hurt trying.

I don't see how it would make any one forum next to dead.. The activity, at worst, will be exactly the same.. Just divided among more forums. I think it could do some good though, people may be more apt to post, for example, music stuff, if they know it's not going to be buried in a sea of "NEW SEASON OF THE OC IS OUT ON DVD".

Perhaps. I was just thinking along the lines of a huge ass "Videogames" category and like, 8 threads in "Music" or "Television".
Who knows though?

Then instead of having the media forum have some posts everyday, each section will get virtually ignored except when a very popular movie comes out, or when a popular game comes out.

You're really intent on splitting up the forums aren't you?
But uh yeah, it's better than all the other ideas. I'm down. The only thing I see is it being too inactive. But I always say that.

Change it back to Media Whorehouse.
I was thinking "Treehouse" next.
Is this happening or no?
Yes, whenever I have some free time. So probably in a couple weeks.
Mr Anorexia
10-20-2007, 8:19 PM
CHANGE IT TO DISCO HOUSE

Give each forum section different continent names. Media Forum would be Australia or some shit.

i think the sections should be TV, Video games, Movies, and Other, Music and Books would get posted in too little.
Allen
10-20-2007, 11:36 PM
I'm all for it. I never come in here so this is the first I've heard of it. If you do one mod to each forum, I'll totally just go with movies. You have no idea how much I dislike reading through people's music opinions, reading shit about games I'll never play and TV I'll never watch.
This will probably encourage more posting. That's what happened with every other forum

That would make it alot easier to find the thread with the type of media you want. I'm down with this idea.

I say yes! Lot easier to find threads that I like between those console threads.

I voted yes. I don't really care though, I have never been to the Media Whorehouse forum.
