I'm willing to keep this board if you guys like it but otherwise I think it should be removed.
There are no benefits in deleting it, but it can help keep shit out of serious discussion and out of threads that are posted in general.

It's too confusing to determine whether a thread is serious or semi-serious or just not quite semi serious enough.
Anyways, there's not really too much traffic in serious discussion to begin with, so if a thread like "my dad died" is in there, it's really no big deal.

Except it's not something debate worthy, unless you want to go on about a supposed afterlife or something.

Serious discussion is only debates? Since when?
Get over yourself and this board, because this board is a piece of shit and completely unnecessary.

Intro board.

Intro board.
That's nice. I'm not defending the intro board, so why bring it up? That's basically unnecessary too.

If anyone is going to bitch about anything, it should be the intro board, but that's an easy place to say "lol hi."
I say we delete all of the boards and we will be forced to code and upload all of our topics and posts.

If you want to get rid of the intro board so badly, make a poll about it and quit whining, because frankly I don't care about the intro board right now. This thread is about semi-serious discussion, not intro.
This board is not needed. All of the threads posted here so far would've worked in The Lobby. It's not hard to start a thread there and say "keep things somewhat serious please." A moderator/admin will go ahead and delete any shit posts in that thread anyway. As for the "my __ died" threads, those hardly ever pop up in Serious Discussion anyway, so why even whine about them?

VG threads, music, food, sleep, serious, and all that other baloney can go in the lobby too. I suggest we just have an admin board and general board.

We have those because they generate enough discussion related to their particular topic. Semi-serious discussion is supposed to take threads away from the serious discussion board which already lacks a large amount activity.

You're missing the point. Those things (except sleep) actually generate enough activity to warrant their own boards. This doesn't.

I'm not defending that either. I don't even know why that board was made.

I think because if the forum ever becomes more active it has a chance of getting a lot of activity on itself. This board is just stupid and should be deleted.

Perhaps it could, yes. It'd at least be a lot more active than this piece of shit.
Actually, now that I think of it, I'm pretty sure the Sports Board was created because Title and a few others started making a bunch of sports threads in The Lobby shortly after he joined, and for some reason that annoyed Lawlz and maybe one other admin.

or general help for things that don't have a board already in place them (tech, games)
I think you all are whining about the title more than the purpose.

WE CAN DISCUSS MATH, SCIENCE, HISTORY, AND ENGLISH, AS WELL AS OTHER SCHOOL SUBJECTS.
I think the voting is pretty clear
FUCK NO
Everything in this board would fit nicely in either General discussion or the recycle board.

Pretty much, yeah.
If we keep it, it needs a better name.
As someone pointed out, too hard to keep a fine line between this board and the others.

No, Title said that if we had a Sports Board, then he would invite his friends, who also love sports.
But this has never occured, yet.
