Maybe you should make wrestler specific threads.

EX : The John Cena Thread, people can share their opinions on the guy. Whether they love him or hate him.

REASON : Could help lessen recycled threads.

You could also do *spoilers* specific thread, for people who want to talk about the results to shows other people may have not seen yet.

There is a thread filled with links to the "Official" threads about wrestlers. For the most part, though, those threads are dead.


What thoughts or suggestions do you have on revitalizing them?


Well, on the one hand, revitalizing the old Official threads would more than likely decrease repeat threads of "OMG (X) IS SOOOO HAWT!" or one-liner wrestler threads. On the other hand, that would be necro-ing.

Best solution would be to start from scratch; have active participants in the forum volunteer to create an official thread for a wrestler, and ensure it is updated.

Alright, let me see what I can do. :3

So that we're on the same page, you're speaking of the threads listed here. Basically wipe the slate clean and fans/regulars can recreate new threads to be listed? Can you let me know which threads you feel are the most outdated? And if any you feel that should be replaced with newer ones?

I'm also going to quote Mr. McMahon since he is the thread owner.

Mr. McMahon
I call upon thee!

I wouldn't know which are more outdated; I don't regularly visit those threads. sweatdrop

Add a rule to the Professional Wrestling discussion stating to post anything wrestler specific in their corresponding threads. Anyone who fails to follow that rule gets their thread deleted.

There is this:

Quote:
Repeat Threads
Wrestling is hugely popular sport, and there will be many fans of the same entertainer. With this, we ask that if there is already a current thread on page one of the forum, you post in that, instead of making your own. Repeat threads may be reported and moved to the Recycle Bin, and if you create multiple threads, you may receive a spam warning on your account.


If the official threads are lacking, then the above would work well to create new wrestler centered threads. If you see any repeat/low content threads, use the report button. I keep the queue up to date, so it'll get looked into quickly. Does that make sense?

Do I hear someone calling me?

When someone posted in the thread about having a new thread for a wrestler, I usually added it. I didn't add everyone's threads though. Some people just didn't want their thread to be the official thread so that they wouldn't have to be in charge of updating it.

An Official thread for me? Aw you shouldn't
have. I love this Forum. It makes me laugh.
