Yes, ChiefsPlanet really is concerned with improving conversation. What was I thinking.

Yeah but you aren't arguing for improving conversation. You're arguing for improving the board experience for yourself.

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.

Ok, so be it.

If people don't want to give a shit about the Draft, let them not give a shit about it.

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.

To be fair, if you guys really wanted to talk football, Draft planet was just a click away.

Yeah, but the general appeal of this forum is that it was a free for all centered around one forum, with an emphasis on the Chiefs. That's why a lot of people like coming here. Now if the general consensus is let's not do that anymore, then maybe not. But the people complaining about this are basically complaining about the nature of this forum. That's why I made the comment to Direckshunned about posting somewhere else. It's basically like going into Dunkin Donuts and complaining they don't have ice cream.

That's just so unorganized and would save people a lot of trouble if topics were restricted to certain forums.

You know when I don't give a shit about the draft? When people start mocking the 2014 draft the instant Mr. Irrelevant 2013 is picked. When our D is rocking and we're undefeated halfway through the season. When our D falls to shit and we get pisspounded in the playoffs.

You know when I DO give a shit about the draft? When the draft is the next thing to happen in the NFL.

Regardless, I've been here forever, and AFAICR I've never clicked on draft, casino, or fantasy subforum links.

And your crucial contributions have been duly noted!
