Congrats on the win over Nebraska...

So, how is everything going? What can I do to better serve you? Let me know if you have any specific requests and I will try to address them.

I do have a few favors to ask...one of my biggest pet peeves on all of our forums are poorly worded subjects. I have always felt that anyone should be able to tell exactly what the point of your thread is by simply looking at the subject. It would be nice is everyone tried to adhere to this...it makes the board more readable and I think it gets more people reading your post.

I would also like to keep this board UGA Sports focused. If we need to create a new forum for non-sports talk for you guys, we can do that. I know that we have discussed creating an OT board for the SECrant, in general.

Anyhow, please let me know your thoughts.

We've brought this up practically every day around here since the migration. Would go a long way toward the loss of our other boards for Falcon talk and other regional Ga crap we like to argue about

Badass.

Everything seems like it's smooth sailing for the most part at least for me.

Thanks for the hard work Chicken.

That would be great, actually, assuming it was a UGA-only OT board.

Sometimes we'll have a non-UGA related post get anchored when everyone's making positive contributions to the thread, which makes me have sad face. Not everyone wants to post a topic on the OT Lounge to get 100 responses that are either gifs or "U MAD BRO."

Thank you for coming here to check in on us and asking if anything can be improved, it really means a lot for an admin to want to take care of the users on his site .

I feel like that would be something that we would really use. We have been labeling topics with (Other Side) or (Pork Barrel) to symbolize threads about non sports topics but they do tend to clutter up the board after a while. Most of the posters on this board are from the dawgrant and value others opinions that we have posted with for years, also on here we know we can get serious helpful answers or spirited debates, this is hard to come by on the OT lounge or political board because the threads move so darn fast and unfortunately most of the posts are troll attempts or just something off topic and non helpful. So to wrap up, some sort of board like that would be very nice and helpful, I'm sure some of the other guys have some suggestions to add on to that. Again, thank you for taking an interest in how to make this place even better

This. That's pretty much why I don't post on the OT very much at all, just too many trolls who think they are being funny instead of people really trying to contribute to the topic.

The OT is cool for the most part. A ton of funny shite posted there daily

The main thing is its really BR-centric and involves a bunch of local crap nobody else would know or care about

Oh yes, the OT is fine in its own rite. Sometimes I just want to see whats up with the Ga folks, though.

And as long as we're making requests, I'd love to see Leghumper and Wild Thang back in action.

Thanks.

An sec rant O-T would be a great idea imo. Most subjects on the TD o-t are Louisiana centric.

First, thanks for letting Josh use your server for so long and then having a place for us to Rant.

This would be awesome for us. I love venturing over to the OT but we could use one for ourselves since that one is so La focused.

I support the freeing of Wild Thang on the condition that he doesn't stalk me or continuously call me a post whore.
