Don't be a one section hermit!

by Adam D Wed Mar 30, 2011 3:03 pm

Hope you are all enjoying your new home here at 606v2. Many of you are making some great articles and debate and the admin/ moderation team would like to thank you. We would also like you all to mingle with some of the other boards too! So I thought I would drop this announcement to let you know about some other areas that you might not have visited yet, that are not sports specific:

There is a great media section on here where people talk about their favourite Films, TV, music, Books, Games (click on these to go to the respective section).
There is also a quiz section, which has fortnightly quizzes and other great games such as the great 606v2 novel - Clicky
Finally, there is a off topic section, where people talk about....well.....anything and everything (personal favourite being the Youtube thread - Off Topic

Also, on certain occasions, the Admin team open the chat box during certain sporting events - everyone is welcome to join in. It will appear at the top of the homepage - look out for it.

So dont be a one section hermit - join in the fun and get to meet some new people from other sections.

One section hermit laughing

We've been called worse before

I've checked out the quizzes and games threads and they are great fun and will pluck up the courage to post soon thumbsup

by The Galveston Giant Wed Mar 30, 2011 4:39 pm

Definitely a few good sections outside the sports boards, probably my favourite so far is the 'Cartoons of your youth' thread, brought back some crazy memories of cartoons i had forgot all about.

by davidl1061 Wed Mar 30, 2011 5:53 pm

The Chat box is a great idea but the software on my work pc doesnt support it and very rarely come on here when not in work. Try to join in everywhere as much as possible, we need more league 2 football ansd rugby league fans to get some debate going

by Adam D Wed Mar 30, 2011 5:54 pm

Put up a poll David in those sections and let us know about it. Once you have a bit of debate about it, post a link on 606 for people to join in.

They are more likely to follow you if they know you.

by yummymummy Wed Mar 30, 2011 6:37 pm

Only just realised there was life after tennis

The Quiz and Games section looks like good fun thumbsup

by Legend Wed Mar 30, 2011 6:45 pm

Well you COULD - But the Spit and Sawdust thread is more about everyday chit-chat and
the price of coal (if you see what I mean)

It is NOT about individual sports - they are alread covered under existing threads.

Probably but I don't think yummymummy would! At least not if she knew what she was getting into anyway.

by yummymummy Wed Mar 30, 2011 8:40 pm

How's about Mayweather and Imran Khan King Beer ?
I'm sure they would join my *sticky* just for fun

kiss

You see their brains are probably about as big as mine so we'd
get on famously Very Happy

by yummymummy Wed Mar 30, 2011 8:43 pm

And I haven't a CLUE what I'm talking about Doh

You see - this is why my Spit and Sawdust forum attracts
a lot of peeeps who only follow 1 or 2 sports.

But there;s a whole wide world out there that needs sorting
out. And sarcasm is over-played! Whistle

by Guest Wed Mar 30, 2011 8:45 pm

you should invite Scott to participate yummy. im sure he has a few views on random things.

by D4thincarnation Wed Mar 30, 2011 8:51 pm

I might branch out a bit tomorrow and see what else is around, can't spend all the time on one topic. Whistle

Just normal fings (If you're a woman)

We leave the sweaty stuff to you fellas Whistle

by D4thincarnation Wed Mar 30, 2011 9:11 pm

I can talk about drugs in todays world, politics in the far east, dangerous illnesses, e.g. the biggest killer to young men in the world was stomach ulcer, fame culture, bad fathers, fair play, the law and what to do with people who break it and many other topics.

by yummymummy Wed Mar 30, 2011 9:18 pm

Not to mention testicle cancer which nearly killed my nephew 2 years
ago, plus my Brother-in-Law died from Asbestosis last year' not
to mention the fact that I was in rather a successful all-girl group in the
8o's . See? you never know what you might find at the end of
of an internet link ???

now come on, Yummy has done nothing to deserve you handing D4 over to the excellent Spit and Sawdust thread, or worse, the tennis board.

I mean, can you imagine the discussion: "Djokovic's newfound confidence should allow him to seriously challenge Nadal's dominance on clay this year", swiftly countered by "yes but Manny is a better athlete than either of them, and is far better than that DUCKER Mayweather"?

by Mad for Chelsea Wed Mar 30, 2011 11:21 pm

On topic though, one of the best things about this board is the non sports section, I enjoy browsing through the books, films and off-topic sections personally...

If they had him even for a week we migt be able to get a decent discussion going without it being hijacked by a bit of Manny-love.

If history should serve as any kind of example, D4 will probably send the tennis forum into meltdown with something akin to ' Federer is a ducker, ' and proceed to adopt Rafa, drag him back to the boxing forum and announce that, with his natural mobility, muscle tone and fighting instinct, he would have been a very good second to Manny as the greatest welter of all time.

While he's at it, he'll probably offer in - depth analysis as to why Evonne Goolagong topples Mayweather and why Nastase, were he to shake off a bit of ' court rust ' would be a very ' live ' opponent for Manny after said Manny has dealt with the forty years old Mosley.

Strawberries and cream, anyone ?

Only Scottish female I can think of in a band in the 80's is Claire Grogan who I had a serious crush on but she wasn't in a all girl group.

Oops !

'Twasn't a dig at you, yummy, but rather our Cornish friends. I'm Devonian by birth, you see, and there's always a bit of healthy animosity 'twixt the two.

Sorry for the confusion. We Devonian natives, as our Cornish friends would say, are ' carrot crunchers, strong in the arm and thick in the 'ead. '
