    SBR. Explain the Difference Between Saloon and Player's Talk Topics

    what are you trying to do here?

    "player's" talk in the "saloon"

    are you trying to clean up the PT forum? what is going on?

    OT is your big volume draw I would think. Why delineate it?

    I think we would like to eliminate the Private Zone. Topics such as 'Have you ever porked a midget' would go in the Saloon. But we are not trying to force things. Players Talk is extremely busy and we are looking at a way to help it longer term.

    Maybe create a new forum "JJ's Talk". That will help unclutter the Players Talk.

    Players talk was suppose to be sports talk in general and the general (saloon) was for all the other crap that lands in here. Players talk will never be just sports talk so just name the joint players saloon.

    thanks for the quick response. I do appreciate it yet.....

    I'm still confuzzled on a few fronts.

    Eliminate the private zone?

    so you are just gonna have an unmoderated forum that is not safe to minors, and that might be offensive to many?

    are you you just going to straight delete and CENSOR some posts to never be read by anyone?

    where is Bateman gonna post?

    why not just re-name the Private Zone...... The Saloon.

    but again, that would welcome more to read potentially offensive material.

    i'm just confused.

    should mods s link players talk material into the saloon or vice versa?

    if I post somthing in the saloon, that is better suited to player's talk. will a mod link it to player's talk.

    if so. will they delete the post from the saloon or will it remain there?

    If I post an NBA topic about a guy from the spurs banging a hot chick. will it stay in the NBA topics. or go to the saloon. or player's topics. or both.

    how does this affect my post count?

    Pavey

    was it easier for you to adjust your gf's vagina

    or easier for you to stick your finger up your ass?

    right is right. natural is natural

    wrong is wrong and unclear is unclear

    i'm just looking for some clarification

    Yea I think so. If its too raunchy we will just delete it. The Saloon can be lively with a lot of leeway. But at the end of the day we don't want to have hardcore porn and hate posting in general. It takes too much moderation and has an empty bottom line. With football over and the Players Talk Forum accelerating growth, this solution seems like the best one.

    Players Talk is the best forum on the internet, hands down

    Do not mess with a winning formula

    thanks for the more direct explanation. it makes sense.

    sorry if I had to be cocky to get this response.

    The masses, seemed to be fine, quiescent, and okay with whatever the powers that be might want around here.

    especially paveyracker

    I may be knew but I have a mind of my own.

    so Dad's threads will be in the saloon.

    will direct threats and attacks towards posters be deleted?

    I'd suggest enrolling to an evening English class with fightingwarrior and Zboiz before you are allowed to post in The Saloon.

    What is the purpose of having a thread appear under two different sections? I see it frequently but don't understand why...
