Stagea Off-topic Section?

[AlexCim]

Just throwing an idea out there.

I know this is different to almost all other car specific forums, but I think that we need a Stagea off topic section to ourselves, or for our section to be more loosely policed.

I find that I feel very comfortable in the stagea section and I really like the crowd we have in here. I think many people agree with me and that is why sometimes we get OT topics, because we dont want comments from general dicks in the real OT section.

The alternative to another section (like the classifieds) is just to be very loosely policed about what discussions go on in here.

Anyone else got an opinion on the matter?

[Tangles]

An opinion I understand ^^

maybe a Whoretown-like thread is appropriate, stickied.

do a poll perhaps ?

its a great idea!

...ska???

[GoldZilla]

Agreed - I too wouldn't mind if we had our own little Whoretown-style thread for general discussion. We've built up a good network between us, so why not?

[3intheBack]

I'm all 4 it. I also like our little community - almost like a family!

However, I've noticed that many of our threads are read and commented on by outsiders (ie the GD's that we are trying to avoid).

So how do we prevent them taking over the OT Section?

Man, are we cliquey or what?

[dan_the_man]

yeah not problems guys. as long as no other admins have issues with it?

[munchstagea]

Great idea I think,

We can avoid the hi-jacking by not taking the bait I guess, pretty rare that anything gets out of hand in here so it would be worth a shot...

I'm much more comfortable in here and I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought there is a mob of DH on Sau

Great Idea Alex

[dan_the_man]

my dog thinks i'm wonderful

[IMPORTD]

I'm sure he does

Hey Dan/Ska are you able to make this idea a bit like a Members Only section?? Like the SauWA etc members sections...how they are hidden from non members... perhaps we could only open it to those with stagea's ??

[GoldZilla]

I don't really think it has to be "exclusive" to us, it's alright to have the opinions of others once in a while too... If they do start to act like idiots and start causing trouble, then we could then deal with that appropriately when it occurs.

[CruiseLiner]

agreed, top idea alex its great to have an area of enthusiasts who think alike and not wanna bitch at each other over minor crap

stagea owners ftw

[dan_the_man]

lol cant make it members only... wouldnt really be fair now would it... would u like it if the skylines area was members only?

[AlexCim]

haha, good to see that I was on a winner.

we couldnt make it members only, unless, we start a "Stagea Club" where we all pay to be members, but then I doubt that because uhh, we are australia wide and organizing cruises would suck.

either a wasteland thread or another section, either way I think it could be the go for us.

[Ska]

I reckon it is a good idea, seeing as not a lot of the stagea guys here even know or look around the other area's of the site.

I think to start with a wasteland thread would be good, and I'll sticky it, and go from there? If a single thread is not enough for any OT disscussions, then we can look at making a new section?

Personally I think a wasteland thread will suffice, I mean it does for all the state sections, and NSW & QLD do have some post whores!

[Tangles]

I vote for a Stagea Wasteland stickied thread

[AlexCim]

wasteland thread created!
