Pure sports discussion on gambling board

[dimonstration]

To clarify, I’m not trying to raise a concern here. I’m only interested to know whether a topic purely dedicated for sports discussion and doesn’t involve betting is allowed on gambling board given that most of the discussion thread on sports thread is already more on sports and less betting discussion.

I have an interesting topic saw that I want to share on gambling discussion board regarding MMA comparison to Boxing but I don’t want to pursue this topic if this will be just move on off-topic board due to no discussion will be made.

Discussion about EPL and other leagues including those like Champions League are not about gambling but about sport. Discussion about about transfer and speculation which is about transfer windows discussion are not also gambling but they are all in gambling discussion board. You can be lucky if your topic is not moved because there are some threads I do not expect the moderators to move but moved to off-topic when it belongs more to gambling/sport discussion.

I think it is fine, there have been a lot of sports discussions on gambling discussion board without gambling or very little of it is being mentioned. also, based on the "Guidelines for threads" that can be found on the Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ, it is ok to discuss sports games(look quoted post below).

Gambling discussion (child board of Gambling) - "Discussion of sports games and other gambling-related topics which are separate from games and services themselves. ".

Let's see what is written in the rules, I think this is quite helpful to know whether the topic you are referring is deserves to be in the gambling discussion section or not.

I'm not sure the moderator will keep your topic there if it refers to the rules. I could be wrong in understanding it, but I have an opinion. All topics should probably have something to do with sports betting or sports gaming, so if it doesn't relate to those two categories then perhaps the moderator will move it to off-topic. This is just my opinion.

This is what I’m actually considering when I created this question. Most of the thread on gambling discussion is more on sports and not gambling which mods allowed. I only want clarity on the acceptance of pure sports discussion on that particular board since mods might consider my topic as not related to gambling because betting will not be involved.

To have an idea on my thread, I saw an interview of DC(Daniel Courmier) which he stated that boxing is more dangerous sports than MMA. I want to get the opinion of other members about this matter since the answer to this is subjective.


Thanks from the above answer guys.
