    Default Main Forum: Crap vs Content

    In the past month or so, what do you feel is the Crap to Content Ratio on the Main Forum? Obviously almost everyone starts an off topic thread from time to time, myself included. And one man's crap may be useful info to another, thus this is definitely subjective. So what's your opinion on the Crap to Content ratio, and how can it be reduced? I'll start:

    70/30 (Crap/Content)

    I'd have to agree. I think Superbowl sunday was the worst with Jamie UK's threads. I think all OT should go to the private zone and let's organize the gamblling betting threads better. I'm at the point where I just skim the titles and then leave.

    I think a lot of this is the displeasure at John leaving and the perceived ownership change. If that's not it, apparently the lunatics are running the show and the mods can't/won't keep up with it.

    Just my 2 cents worth.

    Usually, If I want to read BS then I'll go to main forum. If I want to read gambling info then I'll go to the appropriate forum. I think main forum is just for entertainment so that is how I look at it. 70/30 is probably right. I don't mind it that way. Plays should be posted in appropriate forum though.

    I haven't learned one thing from you guys with the exception of some of the posts by Ganch. His mathematical abilities far exceed mine and I'm a math major. Pure entertainment is the only thing that I'm here for.

    After further review I'd like to add that the mods here have enlightened me at times. Also JJGold has opened my eyes to some line service information.

    Ganch should have his own section in my opinion.

    I'd have to agree with that assessment Raiders, but my highest level of education is ninth grade so take it for what it's worth. Ganch is a genius.

    Agree that Ganch is the biggest Tool here, and I mean that in a good way. If the Think Tank Forum becomes a big hit, I suggest it gets re-named The Ganch Zone.

    Agreed...way too much frivolity and trivia on "Players Talk" section.
