Comedy Goldmine sub-forum

by **Commando** » April 16th, 2008, 9:26 am

Oi,

With regard to the lollage that occurs on here & the amount of forum traffic, it's easy to lose old threads containing hilarity. When one has run its course (such as bunna_07's "fastest car you now for $10k" thread), maybe it can be transferred to a new Comedy Goldmine subforum? Either in E-Series or the hidden section

It wasnt funny. How would you feel if you were E bullied so much that you had to delete your own account.

I feel sorry for the poor kid.

by **Alesia** » April 16th, 2008, 9:31 am

you were doing most of the bullying dan

by **Dansedgli** » April 16th, 2008, 9:32 am

Lies. Your just saying that because I recommended you look up how to get on Jerry Springer on google.

by **Commando** » April 16th, 2008, 9:33 am

Account deleted? L-O-L! :lol:

The little knt brought it on himself though, suggesting senior members have severe mental impairments (for merely pointing out an errror... RWKW figure for an AWD car for example) or suffer from sexual inadequacies won't get a junior member very far on the site...

Anyway, will we be getting a Comedy Goldmine subforum by any chance?

If I ban you, will you write an email to someone or will you stay away??.

Thats not bullying, thats just asking questions.

A pool room section might be worthwhile. I dunno how to set them up without breaking things though. John will have to do it.

by **Commando** » April 16th, 2008, 9:53 am

Sweet

Hopefully John likes the idea, would be good to have a laugh through old threads every now & then (read: when there's absoltuely nothing to do at work)

so tell me what exactly i'm setting up and i'll do it.

by **ned** » April 16th, 2008, 10:41 am

A sub forum that you can move old threads into, so the funny shit gets funnier. lol

by **Commando** » April 16th, 2008, 10:43 am

Well, I was thinking of maybe a subforum for hilarity threads that are "over/finished" (ie, nothing more will happen in that bunna_07 thread since he's left, any other responses in there will be flogging a dead horse). So when an awesome thread has run its course, it is "preserved" by being moved to a "Comedy Goldmine" subforum so that it's not lost in the mountain of other normal (non-funny everyday) threads, & perhaps locked?

http://www.somethingawful.com has this setup, works well for them

*EDIT* "how to delete/Vicfords vs The World" is another that comes to mind

Obviously the subforum would have few threads in it because selected/nominated threads have to be something pretty special to make their way in the Comedy Goldmine

randomness FTW

by **[Sterling]** » April 16th, 2008, 4:55 pm

Good idea camando!

sounds like a very good idea, i having to search through 5 days of thread's just to lol abit.

maybe it should be put in the "site suport" section, not in the hidden.

just an idea 8-)

by **Commando** » April 16th, 2008, 4:58 pm

Half of the funny shit has originated from the hidden section

by **[Sterling]** » April 16th, 2008, 5:00 pm

yeh i kno, but most people cant veiw the hidden section.

still a good idea though

by **Jake** » April 16th, 2008, 5:10 pm

I vote for anywhere but the hidden section... cos i can't view that section

Ridicule pfft. I grew up with red hair and mum is a teacher. That only leaves ban... I'll stop right there.

by **donno** » April 16th, 2008, 7:02 pm

I've heard they do unspeakable things with sheep and coloured park lights...

by **Stengord** » April 16th, 2008, 7:22 pm

OH NOES NOT COLOURED PARK LIGHTS

by **[Sterling]** » April 16th, 2008, 7:23 pm

The term "group buy" may have been thrown around as well.

by **Amon** » April 16th, 2008, 7:56 pm

the pic is actually of me... lol nah j/k...

by **Commando** » April 16th, 2008, 9:30 pm

FFS. The replies in this thread are kind of pointing out why a lot of people aren't in the hidden section. Think about it

Going off-topic is one thing. Off-topic c-r-a-p however...

by **donno** » April 16th, 2008, 9:39 pm

I have come to the realisation in the last 35s that there is no hidden section. It was all a figment of my imagination. Please close thread.

by **Nikk O'lass** » April 16th, 2008, 10:51 pm

what about a classic quotes thread, locked so that it isn't full of "lol @" "rofl" Mods can ad to it as they wish...

EXACTLY. Locked so it's not filled with shit, but saved from getting lost at the bottom of the posting pile.

To find the hidden section you just have to follow the white rabbit.
