I think the forum is great, I enjoy the jokes and often find myself in tears of laughter at some of the posts. I would certainly not want to lose that side of the forum. However I agree that a more serious section for more serious football only topics would be great if people would use it, and use it properly.
I dont however believe that it should be restricted to people who have made 100 posts etc, but rather, that strict rules should apply, and it should be a privledge that can be withdrawn if members dont adhere to them after receiving a warning. ie no abusive posts, no going off topic, no frivalous posts, obvious windups etc.
I would hate to see any major changes to the body of the site, as I think its great, well run, and has a good balance of serious posters and jokers, and with people like Lando, Judge ,Dawson etc you can always guarantee a good laugh or an interesting thread when not much is actually happening in the football world.
I think the main problem will not be restricting access, but in encouraging enough members to participate, to make it worth while having and using the Advanced Debate section.

You call me insulting, when you're the person who does most of it, it's laughable it really is, until I get one little white box against my name I suggest I be quiet. My views aren't s.hit, you just don't like them, therefore they would be. But I won't bother getting into an outburts with yourself it's pointless and you'll just use the same insults.

Good point. Do you not think 100 posts before you get access to this section is too low? Maybe 250 or 500??
Another point maybe to lock down the forum on matchdays, so no new threads can be opened.

Only stop new threads, the existing thread will be open to post in. It stops everyone deciding to create their own threads, which end up dulpicating content in other threads and clogging up the board
