music+movies+tv=popular media is ok
but what whit books & comics??? this is popular too

[ddevans96]

If you want to add three new sections, the best ideas are probably these:

• Popular Media*
• Science
• Academic Help

These would cover a good deal of the topic in the Off-Topic board.

*music, TV, movies, books, etc.

popular media (movies,tv,books,...)
i find ok 1 tread and mucht things to talk
but waht you mean whit science and academic help?
science & pseudo science maybe?
academic help ?

imo, there should be writing board. it should be seperate from the creative arts  board only because it seems to create a discrepancy between visual art and literal art.
i reckon there should also be a theorizing thread which intends to be a discussing board that relates to the elements or conceptual topics from EtG in general.

random fights like 2-1 players in elements and post in the off topic fourm for bragging rights

I know this isn't likely to happen, but there should be a teeny section for discussing other computer games.

A) Draconian rule, no discussion of other games allowed.

people go to other forums where it is allowed, some get bored and just quit.

B) Freedom to discuss other games with gamers on a forum dedicated to an online game.

people might just stick around longer.

Philosophy

There are times where things feel a little bit out of place to just be in off-topic, but they aren't really religion, or politics.

It would be nice to have a dedicated board just to talk about ideas.

At another forum I used to belong to, we had an RPG section, which was pretty popular.

I'd like to see a separate category for other video games - right now the closest we have is "Forum Games."

[BluePriest]

a tech talk forum for non elements related things. That way people can ask their computer questions if needed. It could also be used to discuss useful programs and apps.

As far as a game forum, I think it would be fine as long as its not other flash games. thats elements really only competition. Sure theres WoW or runescape, but those are fundamentally different from elements due to them not being flash.

One should be called "Good-bye threads."

I'm only half-joking.

it's true there have been quite a few threads created where some user or other is leaving. i remember early this year we had about 5 consecutive "bye bye" threads. somehow i don't feel that this is going to put into action though.

i personally am all for a n alternate game discussion board.
