Re: Chuck\'s ready to make a change
[ QUOTE ]
i would be concerned about a 'vent, rant, and rave' forum usurping some of the proper content from OOT. 'running bad' or something to that effect would be good, i think, if it's supposed to be for bad beat/bad streak posts. it's just the name that concerns me. [/ QUOTE ] I dunno. I'm not overly worried about OOT content winding up in a VRR forum. In the event that it did, a mod could easily move the thread from VRR to OOT. Additionally, if such a forum is put under the Poker heading, that'll help it get only poker content rather than stealling some fine content from OOT. I like the VRR name rather than a "Running Bad" name, because it shouldn't only be for downswing rants. We want all the stuff where some moran overcalls with the nut low and when someone brags about running good put in there too.

Re: Chuck\'s ready to make a change
regulars aren't going to be confused about this.
non-regulars are going to go directly there to post a 'rave' about a movie they just saw, a 'rant' about a neighbor's dog that's shitting in their yard, and that sort of thing. do you want to move all of their posts and explain things to them? people seldom read stickies. i think if something like this is even going to be considered the name should be extremely accurate.

[/ QUOTE ] this is a good point. Make it under Poker and have it be "Variance and Bad Beats" or something so it is clearly poker-related. Surf

Re: Chuck\'s ready to make a change
i still like the 'variance and bad beats' name a lot better.
like dids i have a natural reservation about the idea of it, but if it is something that's taken off on other poker forums it should certainly be considered more deeply.

Re: Chuck\'s ready to make a change
i think making separate forums for casino and internet mid limits would be better than a medium/high split
i can also see why people want a bigger limit HUSH, but the stuff that's 30/60 or higher is bound to be posted in the midhigh sections still because that's where the visibility is for most of the strategy posters

Re: Chuck\'s ready to make a change
As a side-effect of this, I'd prefer to be a moderator of MHSH when the changes are made because that is where i'll spend most of my time posting. I'll be happy to cover for the other HU/SH forums in the interrim or even permanently if necessary.
Also, I think Schneids is a great candidate for moderator of HU3, and Josh.(stheif) would be be a really good candidate for MHSH too because of the sheer volume of posts / amount of time he spends in HUSH and in the future MHSH. Surf

For what it's worth I prefer threaded mode as well, but I can adapt if I have to. [/ QUOTE ] To me it's not an either mode. I use threaded to view the forum pages, then I click on a thread, and usually elect to read it in flat.
