    Maybe its just me but I dont think the Paranormal Forum should be under Recreation. I'd suggest it goes into the same cathegory as Religion & Spirituality.

    If that's the case then it should be merged with the spirituality forum imo.

    You know, I would kind of expect that if anything like this is going to happen, myself and T4TF are going to be consulted.

    So it always amuses me when users from the paranormal forum go posting on feedback with wild ideas like this without mentioning it to me.

    If you had mentioned it to me, I would have told you that I don't see a reason for it and I would be against it if the admins asked me.

    I seem to remember admins suggesting that paranormal was becoming more trouble that it was worth with spammy threads on feedback every few days. I'm beginning to agree with them.

    Phew.. for a moment there I thought it was going to be suggested that it gets moved to the 'Sci' category.

    Oh.. and Games should be under Arts!

    Hey I'm just using the Feedback forum in the way its intended. It was a "suggestion" about a forum ... i dont think that is spammy.

    If people dont see a reason for it that fine, was just my opinion.

    monkeyfudge ... where should the monkey forum be when it inevitably arrives?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭Chinafoot


    Yea you're right 6th... not spammy at all.

    Under a newly created 'Simian' category.

    (Let the spam commence)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th

    ....there's more?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,314 ✭✭✭Talliesin


    Personally, I've always thought it should be under Soc.

    I don't think it's amiss for someone to suggest a change here. I do think that if the admins (or more likely Cloud in particular, since the informal distribution of responsibility the admins have has forum categorisation as part of his brief) acted on it, it should be after consultation with the mods, but that bridge is far from passed yet.

    Ok that post brought me back and confirmed that i'm not crazy (in this respect anyway)

    Now back to slagging me off ... i went to see Phil Collins at the Point Years ago?

    Proper channels, tbh.


    I gave Feedback in the Feedback forum .... (what is it with this guy?!?)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,188 ✭✭✭pH


    Is there really any need for a Paranormal forum?

    Most of the stuff is already covered in the Audio-video editing, Creative writing and humour forums.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan


    we need a god channel tbh.

    How about putting it under "Racket Sports"?
    Cross my palm with silver, now there's a racket for you.;) :D

    /edit - Stupidity filter was off there for a minute.

    /edit - No I was right first time. I think it should be "Raquet Sports"

    Have you ever been to the paranormal forum? Next you'll be saying we don't need a PI forum because that's already covered by the humour forum.

    In fairness, not everything that goes into PI is actually funny, there can be some pretty tragic stuff posted.

    Now that you mention it, it is quite like the Humour forum...

    Its ok was just talking to Elvis on the Ouija board and he says its fine where it is ...... but that the proposed Monkey Forum should be a sub-forum in Sex&Sexuality?

    How in God's name did you get someone to agree to marry you?

    My great sense of humour, charm ..... and if you want to know what else you'll have to go to the Sex& Sexuality Forum ;)

    Seriously though, I hypnotised her.

    I was under the impression you used all of those as forms of contraception.

    I'm surprised. I was expecting the phrases "cheap wine", "Las Vegas" and "Chapel O Love" to feature in the story...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    ok ... if that makes you feel better, glad you are giving it some though.

    i fail to see how that would effect me.

    perhaps your famous 6th sense is just like all the other 'psychics'?
