O/T - Dividing The Game Used Universe Forum Into Sections - Thoughts?
Re: O/T - Dividing The Game Used Universe Forum Into Sections - Thoughts?
I like it. Nothing against baseball bat collectors, or basketball collectors, but it is not my passion or interest. I would spend about 90% of my time in the football section.
Buying game used helmets of Packers - all eras as well as game used helmets of HOFers or future HOFers.

Agreed. It is not to divide the members, but the sports. If I want to know about baseball, then I can go over there, or hockey, I can go over there, or whatever.
Sometimes it is frustrating trying to navigate through all of the other stuff to find my threads of interest.

Agree 110%.
Do you guys think there should also be just one section under GU Auctions for auction house comments/news/next upcoming auction/live auction 'what do you think about this item...?' type questions?
Dunno, just a thought. I know I lose myself in searching the Auctions forum for all threads corresponding to the current GFC, Lelands, Hunt, etc type auction. Because usually if one person has something they noticed "questionable" in the current xxx auction or 'what do you think about this item', there's a pretty good chance someone else has that same comment/question. Auctions last for 30 days mostly, so sometimes some threads get lost.

I'm going to play devil's advocate. I focus on baseball -- bats and jerseys -- but I enjoy reading posts about other sports. I've learned a great deal about football helmets, basketball jerseys and other things outside my expertise. I'm afraid if the board were divided by sports that I'd ignore the non-baseball categories (kind of like I do with the Vintage Memorabilia board; it's interesting, but I rarely click the link). The way it is now, if I see an intriguing thread, I'll click on it -- like an impulse buy at the cash register. Dividing by sport isn't a bad idea, and I can appreciate why people would like it. I'm just not sure I'd make the effort to "get out of my box."

SEGREGATE!!!!!!
(Channeling a little George Wallace, there).
A great idea that's long overdue. I get tired of digging through 50 baseball threads to find the "Show me your NFL stuff" thread, or any NFL thread for that matter.
