Gambling discussion board needs a child board?

[Eternad]

Can you give me 10 high quality topic discussions about gambling discussion should be?

I don't think topic like: "guide how to prevent from gambling addiction", " step how to know if we''re an addicts", "history x game", " how to become a good gambler" etc that's just a generic topics and it's repeated over and over.

I disagree with your idea.

If you read completely the main request here then you should not be posting this comment. I'm asking to categorise gambling discussion into 3 child boards which is for slot, sports betting( which includes all the sports discussion on the screenshot) and table games(card games, craps, roulette & etc). I'm not suggesting having a child board for the generic topic. I already bold the part that the main point of this discussion. Adding this will not hurt, doesn't it?

I believe adding a child board namely Slot, Table Games, Sports Betting and other gambling types will make the discussion on that board more organized and easy to distinguish for all the gamblers. Gambling discussion board is already flooded due to signature campaign requirements. What do you think about this suggestion?

There's hardly any threads on slots or table games etc so those aren't really needed. I agree it's become more of a general sports discussion sub though. We could just get strict and go back to basics and say if it doesn't involve bitcoin somewhere then it doesn't belong in there but something tells me people will find a way to squeeze in a mention of bitcoin in any which way they can.

Here's the list of some good topics for slot created by @Mu_enrico:

This kind of discussion and topic on slot can be expanded if it's not being flooded easily. Same with table games like poker, blackjack, craps, roulette and many more. I believe adding this kind of child board can easily filter out those non-sense generic topics.  By doing this child board it will be easier to find the discussion that new users want to read topics on the specific game that they want.

Thanks for answering on this thread sir!

I also don't see a need to segmenting a child board for gambling since it has already been into two categories namely the general gambling and the gambling discussion of which any reasonable user should understand the difference between the two and what category of discussion they both constitute, giving it a child board will only give chance to posting less quality on a particular childboard and may encourage spamming since a particular topic could be discussed together inline with other ones on the same board but different threads than creating childboards

There are over 150 pages of threads in that sub-board. If new child boards were added, mods would need to move all the old threads to the appropriate places and not just require that new discussions be created in the correct subs. I don't see that happening.

I am always busy flirting with the air hostage but I guess next time I will give it a go.

Don't take any hostages while the plane is in the air. That's not ok.

How come having a child board will encourage spam? I don't understand exactly this point. Categorizing topics will open room for more ideas from different category that is not being noticed due to the dominance of sports thread. This is still the same because spammers are just using sports threads to spam nonsense posts. Having a child board can make those shit posts easy to spot compared to reading a hundred-pager sports thread.

Mods can make the current gambling discussion board as Archival and let those active threads move individually by the OP of the thread to make the process of migration smooth. Let those dead threads rest on archival and we can start fresh since this time we have a new category for discussion, not a general gambling discussion.



Locking this thread now to avoid repetitive comments. I already get what I really want which is a response from mods. Thanks everyone.
