    Default General Computer Forum

    I think their should be a general computer forum. Although I also think my computer is more interesting then world events.

    There already is one, it's called the "Help Forum".

    I think ZeZipster means a forum to chat about computers, not about help with them. There's been a flurry of computer threads started today, but I don't think that there'd be enough traffic to warrant a new forum.

    Indeed, because most computer threads at these boards are help threads due to peoples machines breaking down

    It's on the schedule of things to be discussed in Staff, right up there with the following other forum ideas:

  6. Food Forum
  7. Spam Forum
  8. Newbie Forum
  9. Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    A Computer Forum would inspire people to talk about their computer and great for people who don't realize that the help forum is also for computers it'd be a quick answer for tough questions.

  20. A Spam forum seems like a great idea it'd be perfect for cleaning up the General Chat. Although a newbie forum seems kind of pointless, their really isn't all that many introduction threads any way. I've also learned from other forums that a large portion of newbies don't read any thing but just post or ask questions (I think we've all seen people who ask questions with out researching any thing) there'd be a lot of threads to move and the general chat gets a lot more hits so newbies get more recognition posting in a General Thread than they probably would in a introduction thread. I think that you could actually fit the food forum in the arts forum and just call it "Art Gallery/Culinary Arts Forum".

    There will never ever ever EVER be a Spam Forum. And if for some dumbass reason one was made, I'd eat Bleys' pants. While he was wearing them!

    Gau please don't eat Bleys' pants while he's wearing them. Pants have crotches.
