    Lightbulb Dear Moderator Of Sports Forum

    This isn't Off Topic...or On Topic. It's Sports. I would request that you Top the actual draft threads. American Football, Baseball, SOCCER, whatever, just until the drafts are completed. We're not asking that discussion threads be Topped; we're asking that the actual draft threads be Topped.
    It makes it some easier and doesn't impact the forum greatly.

    We'd appreciate it if you would consider it.

    I apologize, EPW. Certainly you count. I only meant in this vote.

    There's like 6 Mods in Sports. Imran, in theory, is one of the more involved.

    There's the problem. Don't step when a stomp is needed.








    You didn't stick this one. There are 3 FFL leagues, and I think one of those weird European leagues. I don't care about them though.

    I didn't notice a draft thread set up for the soccer leagues. Link me if you find one.

    And why would I stick this thread?

    How many threads are actually active on the first page of the Sports Forum? I think you can find the draft threads fairly easily without them being topped.

    Seemed quite silly and I'm sad that Ozzy acceded to the request.

    Imran just looking for any tiny opportunity to thump his chest. He needs his head thumped.
    If there arn't that many active threads, in your mind, why does it bother you? Read up. That's why.

    Why did the Draft threads get untopped?

    More of the same ol' same ol I guess.

    One more example why I hadn't been to this site in quite a long time.

    JR can we do this league directly thru yahoo or email next year? I wouldn't want to inconvenience the Mods by making the site more user friendly to the users.

    I guess Ozzy agreed with my argument. 'Cause I didn't do it.

    Ozzy - Is it true that you are against topping the draft threads? It was my impression that you didn't want to "make that decision".

    I'm just asking because if you don't mind them being topped, and the majority of the current users (the 20+ people participating in the drafts) don't mind them being topped and Imran doesn't mind them being topped....

    I assume they will end up being topped until the draft is over.

    No. For some wild but unknown reason, you intimidate him. Hope you're proud. Bullying poor Ozzy.

    WTF Imran! It was a simple request, politely rendered, and it shouldn't matter either way. So why not be nice to the users?

    We all know there's not enough activity for the threads to fall to page 2, but that's not the point. After all, the same is true of the other threads as well. But sticking the draft threads would be more convenient for the posters -- who likely comprise well over half the active posters in Sports Sub.

    But God forbid the mods should do anything useful around here.

    Well it seemed Imran did mind them being topped. I untopped them because of his statement to that effect. This is his realm, so I defer to him.

    Personally it doesn't matter to me. Doesn't seem like a big deal either way.
