    How about a separate sports section for all the cricket/football/tennis/whatever fans on DP?
    I'm sure the sports nuts would go crazy over it, and it would get them out of everyone else's way :D :D

    :eek: I honestly never noticed that. Still... it seems to be the dominant subject in the entertainment section, let it break free! Everytime I look in "Entertainment" I immediately switch off because the top 10 posts are usually sports related.

    It is the dominant subject in the entertainment section because there aren't enough threads about video games and stuff. Or simply let me put it this way- more guys love to respond to a sports thread.

    There may be many threads, but we can't have a forum dedicated to it. Otherwise we'll have a separate forum for PR updates, and YPN coming to other countries. Both of them go into the Google and YPN forums, and I suppose sports is better off in the entertainment section. No reason for it to have a specific forum dedicated to it

    Start a poll for it and I'll support you ;)

    BTW Nino, I think you need to control on the number of emoticons used. Whenever I try to quote your message, I get the error that you have exceeded the number of smilies allowed. :)

    I don't think it should be a major concern in a webmaster community.

    Where do we draw the line? Sport is important to some people, science to others, history to others etc. My personal feeling is that it is already encompassed in Entertainment.

    Sports would be only good inside the chat forum and just to joke on the posters, as some of friends and I look to do with people posting there but, what else for?

    Despites the fact that there is already an entertainment forum I would say a seperate sportsforum would be great :) I would certainly visit it regulairly.

    I vote yes on a separate sports forum, probably as a sub forum of General Chat like Politics & Religion and Entertainment.
