But this entire thing is a non-issue until people start making threads for each individual team in the NFL for each week, then I'd understand that there might be an issue.

    Ah well.

    I second that argument even though after 4 pages the source and solution of said argument are still pretty vague.

    QQ I thought you wanted me to mod!

    lol I wouldn't be able to mod shit for fear of 5000 OMG PLOW IS BIASED if I deleted or changed anything at all ;p


    All I can find on search is weeks 3, 4, 7, 9, 14, 16, and 17, not including playoff threads-- and that's 130 pages on the dot.


    That should be a lovely thread next year.

    I watch multiple sports as well, and post in all the forums and I conversate with aki in all of them and he seems to be what would be a good choice for a non bias mod.

    I rarely browse the sports threads, but I don't really see the problem. Like it was already mentioned, the thread titles are usually clear enough that you know what it's about so they're easy to avoid if you don't care about the topic.

    Man fuck u gaiz. I am totally unbiased. >.>




    All jokes aside I would implement a rule that all Dallas fans would begin the season with 1 infraction and 2 if you are an Owens sympathizer.

    Just sayin'. If you can look past that I'm totally fair lol, we have have our vices.

    I'm a Knicks fan. Doesn't get more open minded than that.

    Miz would also lobby for permabans on anyone who thinks that John Fox is a great coach.

    But seriously, 1 NFL thread for the whole season? Are you kidding me?

    I have an idea, even though I'm not really fond of it since we won't be able to go back and laugh at each other for absurd comments and predictions...but you could have a mod only keep 2 or 3 weeks of NFL threads alive at a time and delete the rest. So, for instance, weeks 1-3 will be accessible, then when week 4 is posted, delete the week 1 thread, then when week 5 is posted, delete the week 2 thread, etc and so on! Half the fun, however, is going back at the end of the season and seeing how nuts we all were.

    Hey. There's no reason to smacktalk the "weeaboo bitches" or anything. Some of us have the ability to check Anime threads AND Sports threads, you know. Sports Geek/Weeaboo combination, go.

    Any news on whether we have been able to garner any sympathy? Or does the OP still stand?

    I also vote to leave it the way it is. If the thread count wasn't such a problem, we wouldn't have threads on the first page that haven't been touched in 3+ days.

    You should just combine the Football & Soccer threads into one and just name it the Official Football Thread.

    And I support Miz or Aki modding.
