That's okay. You're allowed. You're used to the way it used to work. Nobody likes change. We're looking to improve quality of life in the Lounge. You can help with that. Don't bitch about people not caring about the draft. Educate casual users on the draft.

Oh man
Draft Planet is the only place I feel important on here. Even if it's all in my head. Can we just turn the lounge into draft planet until the draft? Stickies and important Direckshun threads? Lastly, how does one apply to be a sub forum mod?

You have to kiss Direcshun's ass entirely.

How about this criteria:
Mock drafts (full 32 team mocks), Mock draft games, general college players discussions, stay in Draft planet. Chiefs specific mock off-seasons and threads specifically about prospects directly linked to Chiefs as potential picks, get moved to the Lounge. That seem fair? That means people who would be really inconvenienced (the Mock Draft game players, current Combine thread posters, etc.) will be able to keep their stuff away from the clutter in the Lounge. More football talk will end up in the Lounge due to Derick's hundreds of Chief Mock off-seasons and off-season mocks that other people put up for discussion plus the threads that directly relate to prospects whom we think the Chiefs are really interested in. I think that seems fair. |

I'm kinda on board with keeping Draftplanet as is.
Less clutter, and something to be said for the discriminating eye purposely seeking out that specific information versus getting caught up in the main board off topic crossfire. The subforum isn't tough to access and if one is complaining about broadening the discussion, the inverse is if one is missing stuff only posted in DP, then maybe they're not that Big of a draft enthusiast anyway. Behavior dictates if you can't be bothered to click into DP, you're probably not doing a lot of scouring the web about the Draft and quality insights or analysis outside CP. DP serves a good function of cutting through some of the excess bullshit and fluff of simple click thru mainboard worthless replies. (like this one)

If we're looking to make ChiefsPlanet a football forum, well, then make it a football forum. Not football forum lite. |

When the thread about the backup punter from Division IV Biteme University flies off of the front page because only 3 people want to talk about it, you'll be complaining about that. My idea was an attempt to compromise by keeping Draft Planet relatively free of light interest posters, while keeping the Lounge relatively free of what most posters would consider to be picayune draft threads and still encouraging a wider discussion of the more significant draft topics.

What's frustrating is that there is typically high level conversation in a lot of those threads, which many have come to appreciate.
If it moves to the lounge, it's going to water it down heavily, and dissolve into name calling and ignorant posters shitting all over intelligent takes.... It's nice in DP because while it is a more refined convo, it's not exclusive and anyone can hop in and join in should they want. By being in the lounge , I fear it'll get crowded with douche (people trolling). How about letting thread starters boot worthless trolls on those threads, should it move to the lounge?
