Current Affairs

So er can there be a celebrity sub-forum so real news can actually be found? Sure sex and subo are trying to make a funny and obviously get a reaction - don't need a big debate over it, just move the celebrity threads away from real news lol

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Yes to this.

Before they interfere and say "our threads are popular", probably because only joke replies or replies questioning why the thread is there, have been posted.

Not much need for a feedback thread really, just need Matt or Chris to get online and sort it out frankly.

As I've said, some of the threads are worthy of being there, others aren't. I'd personally be against sub-forums, since sub-forums suck.

Just put it in discuss anything instead. Current Affairs is not cosmo.

There actually used to be a celebrity gossip sub forum if my memory serves correctly.

there's no need for a sub forum they're fine as they are. the celebrity threads are still news threads no matter how important they are..

Inseriousty likes the celebrity threads being there.. that doesn't help lol

I was merely implying moving them away from the actual current affairs :L

For the record, a celebrity gossip sub-forum should not be created because of an increase in forum activity in that area, as what was decided with the RuneScape sub-forum debate.

Thing is though, technically 'current affairs' doesn't mean politics and the 'serious' news. All this celebrity gossip is supposedly news (although I'm not so sure I'd read the Daily Mail as my chosen news outlet).

As I said previously, my problems are with other forum rules being broken rather than where it's being placed.

Onion News should be moved to spam though, yes.
