If you think a post is bad, and you can in any way articulate why (or if it seems obvious to you, needing no explanation), please report the post.

If you think people keep making bad posts of some kind that do not break a rule, post here and suggest a rule that solves the problem, or make a new thread with an OP rule not to do the thing you dislike. Or, and I know this might seem like a totally weird thing to do on a discussion forum, but perhaps discuss your issues with fellow posters in a clearly communicated way, perhaps letting them know that something is bothering you, and figure out a way to resolve it? Worth a shot.

Whatever thread you're planning on making in the proposed imp zone? Again, :justpost: it.

But you went off and made a QCS thread about splitting the forum without talking to almost anyone here, without bringing your issues up to anyone in any way and really, without being able to point to any examples of the posting that bothers you, except for 1 isolated thread.

You might turn out to be right about your original point but the manner you went about asking for it is harming your case.

you're a dumb moron

Lots of people snuck in ideas in the QCS thread while I was sleeping or working but let me make this perfectly clear: Rovert is only allowed to post in the Hot Dog Baseball thread, and if he doesn't make at least three on topic posts a day he'll be banned.

"Three Hot Dogs from Rovert a day or he's banned" is oddly catchy.

Also I can't really see any downsides to allowing a subforum experiment but people take the forums way more seriously than I do most of the time

honestly think most of it is projecting that people that are aware and want to talk about that bad poo poo in media they like arent having fun and enjoying their hobby. if no one was having fun i'm sure people wouldnt be posting so much about how they love aew, chocopro, or tjpw

That may be true, but it doesn't make anyone's reason for wanting a subforum any less valid. Whether the person making these posts is miserable or not does not matter, the end result is people want to post about wrestling without seeing those posts super frequently, and they want to do so without making up a rule to ban it because it is not wrong or bad to want to discuss the various flaws and crimes of wrestlers.

IDK it just seems fine to make a subforum and enough people are explicitly saying they would post in both that I don't see the argument against doing it. It probably wouldn't make a noticable impact on poster volume, and even if it does or causes some other unforseen problem it is not like it would be permanent. They could just... close it and merge the forums back and it is all back to how it was.

This just feels like a literally risk-free thing that even if you don't care about it and wouldn't ever post there, I don't get the opposition to doing it. But again I don't post a ton in the wrestling threads so maybe there is some nuance I am doing, idk. Not trying to be rude to anyone for their thoughts since my stake is minimal. I would post in the silly lite place though if it happens, why not

no, but then that turns into the wwe thread where no one talks about dream/riddle/wuertz/orton/benoit/mansoor/kross/austin/undertaker/jbl/that cruiserweight guy in nxt/hhh/hbk/vince/dunn/most of nxtuk's issues, etc etc

Well friend, we just have the normal WWE thread where nobody posts.

Someone should make a good WWE thread that is just Asuka's shitposts from Twitter.

If I'm not mistaken there was a CSPAM Wrestling thread and I remember it being miserable to read, and imp zone style topics/poster are similarly miserable for me to read. I don't know if we need a whole Imp Zone to sunder PSP in half, I've just been using the ignore function to get the kind of experience that I want out of PSP.

I invite people to actually go read the imp zone since all i’ve seen in this thread is a series of misconceptions as to what imp zone actually is.

i think the resistance is coming from a place of fear. people are scared that the good posters will leave here and never come back, and the remainder will be left with only themselves.
