ChiefsPlanet Make ChiefsPlanet great again! - Page 17

Figured I'd get this discussion going sooner than later. Here's your thread to suggest ways to make this place great. This can be anything from new capabilities (though no promises on making anything work), new ways of organizing things, whatever.

As examples, I think we need to figure out a way to meet the desires of people who want calm, in-depth discussion of the Chiefs and people who love a no-holds-barred, in-your-face style.

I also keep thinking about ways to have more unique content, kind of like gblowfish's 10 Things threads. Maybe we could have people write regular features or something like that?

I certainly don't have the answers, but we might as well use the offseason to talk about some cool ideas.

As in "riding a train" subforum, or "pulling a train" subforum? Because there is a very distinct difference to be made there.

Well, (a) I never cared before, and (b) that feature doesn't exactly leap out at you. It's not like the board comes with an owner's manual. I've also been out of the game for three years - I am a bit rusty.

I didn't think they were popular enough to warrant that, but I'll admit that this song is catchy.

I've often said that if I had an Indian name, it would be Argues With Idiots. But what does that say about me? I don't give a shit what they think, and they don't give a shit what I think, so why bother? Plus, at the end of the day, the election is over, my guy won, I'm happy, and I neither feel the need to gloat or relive the constant conflict. If I want to discuss politics now I do in Facebook groups with like-minded people, and I ignore or simply unfollow my handful of liberal friends/relatives who are seemingly becoming even more unhinged now than they were before. I'll occasionally lock horns with somebody, but occasionally is enough - not every goddamn day. Don't need it, don't want it.

I'm in a better place now, and I'd like to stay there.

Well damn. I was hoping that I'd convince you. Over the years, I've had my epiphany about politics/religion on this forum. I've certainly said my fair share of shit, and hadn't a fair amount flung back. But, I don't take any of it to heart. It's just words. Life's too short.

Wish I had learned that in Catholic school.

OK. Thank you.

I'm a bit of an idiot so bear that in mind.

WilliamTheIrish · 01-29-2017, 04:45 PM

Also Fraz, I'm glad you're back. Three years? Has it really been that long? Goddamm. Time flies.

You ever see the training video of Lou albano and fabulous moolah before wrestle mania one? It had her eating a sub sandwich with albano stating "I have moolah on a high fat low protein diet" lmao that was some funny shit.

Wow really? 3 years? Holy shit. On a positive note we're approaching the one year anniversary of kc native being gone. All hail Bearcat for that!

I'm sure I'll eventually pop in. I just don't want to let it consume me again.

How about a "Thread Of The Year" contest?

LiveSteam · 01-29-2017, 04:52 PM

What contest. That award winner comes straight out of DC & goes to Billay for his ( Is Trump Done Yet) thread

Craash · 01-29-2017, 05:03 PM

I've been here along time. I lurk - ALOT. I enjoy the banter as much as the next person and I'm positive I can see early breaking news as fast here as anywhere. I enjoy the flame wars too - most of the time. I don't post a lot, simply because it opens you up for God knows what. We have the lounge, we have DC. What about an ON TOPIC Chiefs (or otherwise?) subforum that you aren't concerned about leaving open in work? Where people can disagree - but you aren't called a no good mo****F***** who f***s grown *** in the *** while g****** sp*** in the sho***? I'll know I'll get grief over this - which proves my point. Disagree if you want, but you don't have to tell me to f******* sho*** a tr** in my ****. Just saying.
