DraftPlanet is not closed.

Draft discussion is now encouraged in the Lounge. This format has been followed in the past and fell by the wayside.

We've had a discussion within this thread and reached a partial compromise. I don't know exactly what it looks like but I have a general idea of what I think would be positive for ChiefsPlanet. I'm looking to regular participants in DraftPlanet and The Lounge to help fill in the blanks with their own cool ideas.

The following is not yet etched in stone. There's a lot of pertinent discussion throughout the thread.
DraftPlanet will remain open until one week after the Combine. Draft gurus will be encouraged to start and/or ask for threads to be moved to the Lounge. We want to encourage football discussion in the Lounge and we hope Draftnits will seek to share their knowledge with the GenPop. Finally, DraftPlanet will remain open year around but new threads will be moderated by Draft moderators and moved to the Lounge or kept in DraftPlanet based on a yet-to-be determined criteria which is up for discussion.

Is some reasonable knowledge of football and/or the draft a requisite for posting there? If not, will they be helpful in educating me?


If you have questions, I'm always available.

Not at all, sometimes you can start just by watching and learning. Getting familiar with the frequented outside websites people pull info from, etc. You'll eventually be familiar with something or someone being discussed that you have an opinion or insight and post away. It's a lot less dickish, and people won't be coming at you from all sides. If they did, you probably did something pretty obvious. i.e. Constantly combative with "x" poster regardless of the actual content of the post.

In the past it was simply attached to the Lounge, no?


What's wrong with that? I don't recall such complaints or outcry the past few years but if they exist, I'd like to see them.

Now we're talking about special protection for these guys.
I'm curious. How exactly is keeping things as they are some kind of special protection? Is there an anti-poster button the draft people can just click to jettison someone like yourself?

I'm not here for football and now I have to make my way through all the draft threads in the lounge!?

This is absurd.

The special protection I'm talking about is Phobia's idea of treating draft threads in the Lounge like prayer threads. And yes, he has a button.

So the special protection isn't actually special protection at all, then. It's actually an ameliorating accomodation to those who's current situation is being disrupted. Do you have a problem with this because you're just being a dick, or because you can't grasp a pretty simple concept such as trying to keep the flavor of the draft planet threads when they're basically ported into the Lounge?

I ask because you're making the draftniks' point for them.

No, it's special protection. And I have a problem with it because it's a deviation from the free wheeling, self-policing nature of our board and I don't see any justification for that deviation.

I didn't say you did. It was offered in response to whining. Do you oppose this special treatment?
