I was thinking we should have just a random spam thread where anything and everything can be discussed and one word/off topic/random posts aren't frowned upon, maybe there's a way for the mods to make it so that posts in that thread don't count so people can't just spam in there to get their post count up (if they so chose to do so ) or just have it as a one off thread. I know the general board is for normal convo but it's still somewhat restricted to the topic of the thread and I think a dedicated mega thread for randomness would be interesting. Dunno just thought it'd be good if there was a place people could just chat without having a topic as such but where anyone could join in and read it instead of PMs and the like as often threads go off topic anyway and then either get locked or die out but this would ensure random banter could continue, just a thought Of course you can start a thread just chatting, it's been done before, but when some threads end up being full of bollox and it is in a thread that actually had some sort of a point to it for other members, then it will get locked. I don't think there's a way of posting in a thread for people to chat without the post count to go up, I'm pretty sure we've had someone ask that before too?

^^ fair dos, I thought people had asked for a kind of chat box before but obviously this is a bit different, can't be bothered looking through 11 pages to see if someone has or not

The frappr side though which have the Rep Of Mancunia map on it has it's own little chatroom too

yeah, I'd prefer not to have a chat box cos if you're not on you miss the action, with a thread though it all stays together and can be revisited whenever, it would probably die after a day or so anyway but I just thought it might be a bit different to just threads that have wandered off topic, now I think of it more though I doubt it'd really work so meh.

You've had me spend all this time replying and you're not gonna do it that's not good enough mister.

I usually am guilty for running off with the thread and talking other stuff, and I think this thread will be perfect! #thumb# Sil, anyway we can pin this thread for this blind dude who keeps troubling you? (C'mon Sexy mama say YES! )

I didn't even know there was a suggestion box Now I do I shall proceed to fill the bleedin thing up with all sorts of stuff, lol. Joke. I have noticed in the General United section that there are currently 5 threads all chatting about Gabrielle Heinze........ "Heinze wants Liverpool move" (Traitor) "Heinze on the menu for Toon" "Real eye Gabby swoop" "Heinze keen on Barcelona move" (Traitor - again - he's keen on any team connected to his name, lol) "Gabrielle Heinze" I propose each player be given a thread of their own - or sub board whatever it is called and any stories, gossip, facts etc etc can be placed under each players own name. Easy for those posting to do so - and easy for those wishing to find info on one player......... So what do ya think Ya know it makes sense !!!

Only one of the threads on Heinze are actually open thought. Some people tend to post new threads rather than add to old ones, but hey if they didn't I'd not have a job

Ok...this is coming from the RoM on Wikipedia thread: Why dont we also have a list of all our "award" winning members on there? As and when ppl get on the site to learn more about RoM, they'll see how much the members mean to the forum and they'll join... think abt it
