How about a new forum: LOCAL KIDS SPORTS A place where people can go to ask/answer questions about local sports registrations and discuss what's going on and coming up. I would find that very helpful personally. WOULD YOU USE THIS FORUM OFTEN?
That's what I'm thinking. We have 4 kids and I'm always hunting down registration dates for football, soccer, baseball, tee ball, etc. I'd like to see it used for local dance info as well since I have one daughter in dance. Maybe LOCAL KID'S SPORTS & DANCE would be a better heading for a new forum? I think the local sports organizations would appreciate having a place to get their info out to the public as well. Anything to make life easier for us busy parents!
Awww...come on now Ken. A Kid's Sports forum would be informative. Band can be under the JC schools forum. Seriously, more than once, I've seen sports questions on here and then, a few weeks later, I need some similar information and go to find the post and have to dig through pages of threads and try to figure out when it was etc. It would be so much easier to just have it all in one place all the time. And I don't think Webbie would really set up a mutant leprechaun forum (because only you could use it...HA! j/k really, j/k) Now would it really mess your world up that much to have an extra forum or 2??
speaking of all the boards, I have a question about the school section, why is it that webbie is the only one that post there, it seems like anyone with school info should or could post it there, is it just not used that way, please explain thanks
WOW Ken, why don't you tell us how you REALLY feel?! I guess you answered my question "Now would it really mess your world up that much to have an extra forum or 2??" Guess that's a big, fat....YES it would. Good grief, I bet you laid an egg the day webbie added the pets forum. Guess you think all the people who use that forum and the PC forum are just "lazy", "hillbilly" idiots too. Oh, wait, they are the evil "special interests groups" starters draining our government of all it's $ Are you always this nasty to people or are you having a bad day? I really don't appreciate your snotty tone towards me on the matter, don't think I deserve you implying that I'm an idiot. I may not know as much as you do about computers, but I don't think that warrents your attitude on the matter. Can't you just place your NO vote and get on with your life instead of flaming people who just happen to disagree with your grand ideas about the world? GOOD GRIEF!
OH!!! I see! Your a JERK. And there I was trying to reason with you. My Bad! Moving on now. Don't have time to deal with NPD's. It's pointless. Google that one
Honestly Ken does have a point, even though he does not always say in the nicest of ways, but if we start a separate forum for every interest it would really be way too much to handle and then someone might get mad cause what is important to them is not important to someone else but someone else got their own forum, etc etc etc.
Oh my! Did we have trouble with our google search? LOL Yeah, folks like you are usually full of hot air. 10,000 posts (almost) Well, bless your heart (Jeeeeeesssssh - who do you work for (and I use the term "work" loosely...wonder how much work you get done with so much time to post...on the other hand, you would do well in public office ) Again, NPD's are ....well....you just go google it ....K!!!! (let me know if you need help with that Mr. computer god..... I mite knot B a Pro lik U butt I can Due sum stuff. Least I'm a helpun U git yer goal of 10,000 posts. (BTY...I'd say "loser" would be the best option....in your own words!!) Hmmmm... this is fun isn't it Ken??!! )
I'm kinda for it and against it. I favor anything that would possibly benefit a childs life but wonder if the forum would actually be used.
I voted no, as it seems to me that so much emphasis (too much in my mind) is placed on a sports orientation. Nothing wrong with sports. It seems to me that other kids, whose interests are other than sports, are rarely publicy cheered or recognized. When my son was in high school, my concern was that kids who had gone to school for all that time, graduated, and became productive TAXPAYING citizens far outnumbered those students who earned an athletic scholarship. In a ten year period, TWO, count 'em TWO of the students made it to the draft in a professional sports league. Of those 15 thousand plus students who graduated in that period, some of those kids had their "15 minutes" in the ten seconds or less that they were on the stage accepting their diploma. I say that their school experience, thier lives, were as valid as the jocks who got the press and coverage, yet they were rarely acknowledged. What bragging fora is there for the students of art, music, auto shop, typing, etc? Yet, these kids deserve their chance to be cheered. Before we expand a sports related event or area, perhaps we need to consider those taxpayers and soon to be taxpayers who do choose recreation in a different manner.
but you're just being ****y for the heck of it. at least ken had a point. like kaci said, he may not have said it as nicely as you would prefer, but he had valid content.
Somewhere in that statement I feel comfortably related. I feel all warm n fuzzy just thinking about it. :mrgreen:
