No... just no. BS has WAY too many sections, and we don't need one for useless (in my opinion) things like sports and such. That can be discussed in "Other", thankyouverymuch.

On a more serious note; we already have more sections than what the mods can really handle. I can't see why we would need yet another useless section. soon it would only be a flamefest, anyway.

But at the same time, the mods say they are enough already to handle everything on the site :roll:

You only have two active Global Moderators, currently. And only about seven sections are moderated by others. If you would clear up the list of inactive moderators, you'd be left with just about... nine.

Me, UK, Togo, Aniu Caelestis, Draco, Ara, Yupik and Brown Wolf and Catadventure. These are the (from what I've seen) currently the most active moderators these days.

To add to that list, Suka is pretty active also. He's just on usually later in the day when everyone else goes to sleep. Kirada is also fairly active. So that would be like eleven active mods (most of whom cannot moderate the forums anyway). Out of the eleven mods, only Togo and UK can completely moderate the forums, whereas Aniu and Ultima/Lux can moderate particular sections - thus four mods on the forums.

And while I do not want to bring up the issue of BS vs. TLKS, the TLKS forums are not as frequently moderated (likely one of the reasons why there have been so many fights), which is not the fault of UK and Togo - but they cannot moderate the entire forums by themselves...

Back on topic - I don't think a sports section is needed. If we were to add a sports section, the most logical sport that it would be on would be dog-sledding (no offense meant to TLK fans, there is simply no real sport advocated by that film), and rarely is that even brought up - save for when it is the season for the Iditarod (which my spell check apparently dislikes -_-; ).

Well, I don't think so. I think it's fine to just post sports topics in the "Other" section. Anyway, there aren't that many sports topics so why make a whole section for it? Sorry, I'm going to vote no.
