Why is there still a Kings forum?

[Thunder Dan]

Do those guys still come around?

[JamStone]

Because Kori said so.

I suggested a Laker forum. Not as bad as it sounds, look at all the stuff in Basketball News Central that wouldn't be here anymore.

[IronMexican]

People can't post in it. I suggest a porn forum.

i dont really understand why its still here if you can't post in it.

good a place as any for a joke I just saw online:

An elementary school teacher in Boston explains to her class that she is a Celtic fan. She asks her students to raise their hands if they, too, are Celtic fans. Everyone in the class raises their hand except one little girl. The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says, "Mary, why didn't you raise your hand?"
"Because I'm not a Celtic fan," she replied.
The teacher, still shocked, asked, "Well, if you are not a Celtic fan, then who are you a fan of?"
"I am a Lakers fan, and proud of it," Mary replied.
The teacher could not believe her ears.
"Mary, why, pray tell, are you a Lakers fan?"
"Because my mom is a Lakers fan and my dad is a Lakers fan, so I'm a Lakers fan too!"
"Well," said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone, "that is no reason for you to be a Lakers fan. You don't have to be just like your parents all of the time. What if your mom was a pros ute and your dad was a drug addict, what would you be then?"
"Then," Mary smiled, "Then I'd be a Celtic fan".

That was clever.

[angelbelow]

laker forum is fine with me, we have enough. porn forum is also fine with me, even though i have enough.

[IronMexican]

I'd actually post in the Laker forum. Way better than CL, LG.

I agree it should be a porn area haha

How about a 'Time Out' forum....when you do something you are not supposed to do on here- you get sent to the Time Out forum where you can only post in there with other people serving time out. It will be like getting in trouble when your a little kid

[IronMexican]

That's what the troll forum is for.

now that would be great, lol. like a 1 day ban will get you stuck in the time-out forum.

i remember in an old forum, they used to have something called the weekly doghouse or something like that, but basically every week, there would be posters nominated to be voted for the doghouse, and whomever got the most votes out of the nominated posters, would be banned for a week.

[Trainwreck2100]

Lakers have enough forums, the reason the Kings and Pistons got one was because they lacked a quality forum. So there will never be a Laker forum.

Also the powers that be are against posting porn anywhere

There is an automatic way to get rid of undesirables in vBulletin I am told. It's caled reputation points. If someone makes a good post that you like, you give them points for it. If they make a bad one, you take them away. All that has to be done then is set up a user group that autobans members when they have ac ulated enough negative reputation points. It can't be abused easily, limits per day can be set as to how many times you can give them and spreading the "wealth" around to plenty of members as well before you can credit a poster again.

[IronMexican]

That would be abused with ease.

i think it would be kinda fun to vote people into a 1 day ban

Mouse could singlehandedly ban Kori or LJ with such a system.

Time-Out Forum would differ from Trolls because you would be sent there, every other forum on ST would be locked for you, and if you wanted to post anything you would have to do it in there. Only people in time out can read what is in there. It's like detention in school, or in school suspension.

Like the people who abused the College Forum by calling people at work and posting phone numbers would be sent to time out for however long Kori decided. You could be sent there for an hour for minor things, a day for something else, or a week to a month for something major.....that's time out forum

i think everyone should be allowed to at least read whats going on in there. more humor for us.

If that's the case, then a Mavericks forum should come first.
