    Forum Request

    In my spare time I do things other than gaming. I know that RuL is based around gaming, but in a community people do things other than games i.e. hobbies/ sports. I think it might expand this community by adding separate forums for these. It wouldn't just be a place to say oh yesterday a scored a hat trick or caught an interception, but a place for people to share their interest in an area outside of gaming.
    You might say: Well, Spork they already have something like this...its called real life.
    As an example most of my irl friends don't know wtf a scissor(soccer) is outside of people I know on my team. This site is the perfect place to discuss things like this and what you are reading or playing atm.
    I am open to criticism so if you think it is the stupidest thing ever and it shouldn't be on the site go ahead and say it.

    Moved to the correct forum. Withholding my opinion for the time being, discuss RULers.

    I like idea, we could just make it a thread like the What you accomplished in gaming thread but for real life things or We make the forum and have a sub-thread for each Major sport. I like my first idea better because some sports might get hardly any activity or none and be useless.

    Well technically the General Chat forum is for non-gaming stuff.

    This.

    I like your idea, but for RUL, it's unnecessary. General Chat and SHFT are sufficient enough for talking about things unrelated to gaming. I think adding separate forums for hobbies like sports or other forms of recreation would just draw attention away from the true essence of the site.

    I do get what you are saying, but honestly there is only a relatively small amount of individuals, including myself, on the site that enjoy talking about sports and when something epic happens we use the RUL General Chat or SHFT to get all of our sports talk out of the way, so there's not really a need to have a separate section for that kind of stuff. If you have something happen IRL that you want to share with people, feel free to use those sections so you can talk to everyone about it.

    Adding more forums can really clutter things and ReadyUpLive is trying to become simpler. Though we could add Sub-Forums, even that too makes everything a little more complicated. I'm not saying that you're idea is terrible, I'm just pointing out that there really is no need because we have the RUL General Chat and, as Ganner mentioned, The Chatbox.
