I would argue that draft time used to be one of the best times of the year on this forum. We used to really get into it, and I think it did improve the overall football knowledge level to have these topics discussed on the main page. Instead you get stuck with 12 million Geno Smith threads and little else. I think re-introducing some of this on the main page would help improve the lack of football knowledge you're complaining about.

There's also a Thread Display menu in the bottom left hand corner that allows you to organize the threads as you wish.

...as well as a few options under the Forums menu at the top to filter down to certain sets of topics.

Right. Because that's a feasible option.

Just get a DraftPlanet version of the Beryllium thread going. Because that's sustainable and everything.

That's gonna be a shit show.

We send a pm to everyone that's gonna participate with the simple directions on how to sort it to only draft threads so it can be easily accessed.

We have plenty of time to make sure everyone understands how to do it.

I welcome the additional discussion and audience.

There's no reason to drop the IQ of the topic down a few points to ensure everybody else gets minimally literate on it.

You are 100% entitled to that opinion. No problem.

But, don't be flipping out about how the main forum doesn't want to talk football, or that no one cares about improving the overall level of football conversation... when it's really you that doesn't care if there are more football topics on the main page. Then you act like everyone in the main forum is essentially beneath you.

It's a stupid idea for them to have done this right in the middle of the combine. It should have been done either before or after. Having said that, the <s>Gods</s> mods have spoken. Just port over the active threads and go from there.

All rolled into one thread. Each ****ing day. And they'll show up whenever somebody takes the time to post a really great draft observation or report that they wrote themselves.

That's right. I'm going to destroy the things that I love to prove a point to everybody. All you mother****ers that think this is wonderful are going to want to join Warpaint ****ing Illustrated after I'm done pouring an ocean of moldy diarrhea all over everybody.

**** you all.

I foresee a ban in your future.

Then you will slam your fist down in anger, causing a nearby pipe organ to tip over and crush you. News of your demise will drift back to Chiefsplanet and someone will post a Curly Bill gif.

Don't let someone post a Curly Bill gif in your honor. Switch to laid back life outlook.

Just admit that in order to make the Lounge more football literate, you're taking a dump on the (admittedly few) people who really did enjoy DraftPlanet. That you're breaking a few eggs that nobody gives much of a shit about in order to make your omelet less mediocre.

I don't use any of those shitty forum view tools. Never have and never will. Chiefs Planet is all about trends and pulses. I ask myself every morning, "What are Chiefs fans and AIDS tree enthusiasts interested in talking about today?" I open up my laptop to find out. And there's Chiefs Planet in all its glory. Unaltered by thread view functions, ready to give me the answer to my question.

Yeah, I'm bitching about this because it's not the way I do things. Yeah, I'll have to change, and that sucks. No, seriously, it really does. It's bad enough that youtube made it ****ing impossible to find channels you subscribe to that haven't posted any videos in awhile. Now I gotta deal with this bullshit?

I'm a reasonable person. If you don't like this plan, then give me a plan that is going to be practical for the majority of the board.

I know there are a dozen gys who follow draft issues more closely than anybody else and they are why that forum was created. Why can't you use this opportunity to garner interest from another few hundred people?

Hey - that's fair criticism. This decision should have been made a month ago. How do we make it work?
