Husker_Du Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 What would you guys like to see added as boards? Off Topic? (politics, entertainment, social stuff) Other Sports (football, baseball talk, etc) Conference Specific Boards? Looking for anything the community might want.

lu_alum Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 A separate board for MMA seems to be the best place to follow former wrestlers who’ve made the transition to the octagon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I would vote against a politics forum. It's too divisive and polarizing and nobody ever wins in a "discussion" a.k.a. an argument over politics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a similar separate board for nostalgia? I came up with that one awhile ago and I believe JB was there to make it happen. We had several theads at the time with great history information in them, but after awhile they would get buried into Page 3 and beyond. My thought was to move the best threads about these legends over to that Legends of the Mat section so they could be easily found. Then maybe have a few threads started there as well well dedicated to specific teams or individuals that could be added too. While it has a good start, that forum never quite evolved that at way as future moderators weren’t as active with moving some of the best threads over to it. But I agree it was a great place to preserve these memories. It could be a great resource of information if used well.

lu_alum Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 @Husker_Du I’d recommend moving Legends to the first tier, rather than placing it under the College board. Key example being the initial Dave Schultz thread. Most “Legend” posts cover the careers and stories through all three levels of competition (HS, Collegiate, International).
