Hm... this'll probably be a really stupid idea, but I really just want people to learn more about the scene and what not. It's so annoying when people think they are girls just because of their androgynous appearance and all that.

So, can we have like a visual kei forum? It would make me really happy. ♥ No really, you can just ignore this because we all know it's a psyducking stupid idea.

Honestly, if a food section were created, it'd be less about creating food than opinions on different kinds of food. And not even the interesting possible topics, like GMOs and preservatives, but "do you like cheeseburgers," and that sort of stuff.

I was thinking it would be more like a place to show off food pics and recipes, myself.

...I could so go for a place like that actually. Gimme recipes please.

Idk we could try a food section.....food was the craze in GC/TT before the recent sex thread craze.

Each month we'd all vote on what forum we want to have and for a month, we test it out. If it's popular, we keep it. If it's a dud, it gets retired.
pls no

If you create a food forum, well you can guarantee I'll make a pie thread within like a second of seeing it.

Do it do it do it. I'll actually get off my bum from GC and get stuck into it if I like it. :)

Food works for me. It's kinda important that the forum is reasonably relatable for most people if it's to get some life in it.

as much as I'd love the following ideas:

-Luck Hax Tribute Forum
-Liverpool FC Worship Forum
-Merseyside Is The Best County In The World Let's Discuss The Wonders of Merseyside
-The International Kate Bush Forum
-Office Lackey Problems
and many more wonderful ideas that relate to a very specific (small but that word isn't as complimentary) portion of the member base.

Food and Internet Culture.

All the reasons for the food section have been explained, so I'll pitch Internet Culture. We've all used the internet for many years now, so I think it's safe to say there's some "culture" involved. I'd like to have threads discussing memes, websites, and some of the things that have become notorious thanks to the web.. like otherkin and viral videos. Stuff like that!

Maybeeee a sports section? I know Media and Culture is the place where that sort of stuff goes, but it's worth pitching as a possible section since Sports is really a subculture of its own. Then again, I suppose so is music and film, so maybe that makes the whole idea moot.

I like this idea and the idea of a food forum.

How about a Fashion forum? There's currently no specific area to talk about current fashion trends, clothing and what not.

It's funny that you mention that (the first part), actually. Sonata and I have been talking about something fairly similar to this, and it seems like it may come into fruition.
I agree so much about a food forum. I feel like when we have a food thread here in GC it's way too watered down. I'd love a forum to have many threads about food from types of food, drinks, cooking, a community cookbook stickied at the top. I really think this would be successful!

Like Dipu said, a forum for sports would probably do well! I don't feel like all sports should be grouped in C&M. I think with their own forum there would be a much larger discussion for them other than just the occasional thread haha.

Also a small idea(though this could fall under Pgen and Gaming Central combined, but what about a "Next Gen" forum? It would basically be threads anticipating the next generation in Pokemon, discussing possible new features, new Pokemon, older Pokemon who should get an evo/mega evo, possible remakes/sequels. I just feel like so many of these threads are made that a forum dedicated to an inevitable generation before it happens could work well!

Okay this might be dumb, but what if we had an actual like chat and go section. One that doesn't have restrictions like this forum. Like here it tends to be topics that we branch off of and there are character restrictions and what not. I realize we have a chatting thread in this section, but it never really seems that lively. It's just like the same topics being recycled over and over and it gets stagnant.

In a chat and go forum I would imagine lots of threads that are just quick simple questions like "how is everyone today" or someone could come in and make a thread asking a question like "anyone ever try this before?" (sorry these are really lame, but I'm trying to give simple examples.) They also don't really have to stay that close to topic too, they're just pure discussion threads, but when one thread is having a discussion that is not interesting it will be easy to go to other threads where there is conversation that pertains to you.

It would be like an extension of this forum here, but without limits, way more broad, and just more mindless chatting instead of set topics. I think it would be good for conversation and getting to know others.

i really like the idea for the fashion forum. the food forum idea is also supa coo, i'm sure you'll be seeing my world famous grilled cheese recipe if this thing flys.

i'm surprised that no one has said this one yet but a mafia forum? i've seen this before and i think it's nice to have it separate from FG but at the same time if it's too separate people won't see it so idk.

Hey guys... guys...

T-Dome. LOL...

Edit: ok but really an adult section might be good. Not just for the ol' t-dome-esque related stuff.. but to talk about adult issues, relationship-happenings, day to day stuff, rants about the workplace and.. general non-kiddy stuff including world news and even possibly politics?
Maybe I'm just old or whatever but it might be cool?

My favourite suggestion would be an animal forum. You could discuss pets, favourite animals, animal science, wildlife, conservation, have 'cute pic squeee' threads, find friends who share your interests/have similar pets to share tips with, etc - I think it'd be a lot of fun and a great way to meet people with more 'specialized' interests for quite a universally loved topic.
