    Guys.

    As the Community/Forum gets bigger & bigger, there have to be seperate Boards for varying topics, or the whole thing just becomes a complete nonsense, & it would be impossible to locate particular Threads or topics.

    Moving it to "The Shed" is not a slur on the Thread, not one bit, it just belongs in The Shed, no more, no less.

    If that Thread were to stay in GPC, then everyone else, who normally Post stuff in The Shed, would want their threads on GPC. 

    And if that happened, why not just close "The Shed", & all the other Boards? Stick everything in GPC. Which would soon collapse under the load, as Threads would "fall off" the Front Page so much quicker. 

    It's just sensible Forum husbandry, & in NO WAY reflects upon the quality, or otherwise, of the Thread.

    I stick to GPC most of the time, others only visit "The Shed", it's each to their own. Jack Spratt & his missus, sort of thing.

    If anyone can Post any thread anywhere, the whole Forum will collapse into disarray. There have to be & are, exceptions, but I think they have to be just that - rare exceptions.

    To repeat, the decision to move it is standard Forum husbandry, & does not, in any way, reflect upon the Thread.

     Imo This thread was about  the players which are the most important part of the game without them you dont have a game! It is not as though it was about cats in bins or footy!

    The Shed may not have existed then - it was a later addition to the site.

    No idea, Mr Plop, but how do two wrongs make a right?

    Sorry to sound obdurate, but the relevance of why it was allowed to remain on the wrong board last time is lost on me.

    In addition, Forum Traffic (number of Posts per week) is increasing week-on-week, & has been for a while now, with the rate now accelerating, so it's far more of a problem now than  it was previously.

    I also expect Forum Traffic here to significantly improve even further very soon, as there are a whole bunch of exciting, & very special, things, soon to "go public", which will, collectively, create a lot more Posts.

    ""I stick to GPC most of the time, others only visit "The Shed", it's each to their own.'' 

    With all due respect, this is one of the reasons where I feel it would be beneficial to the 'whole' community if this thread was in GPC. There are too many 'negative' theme threads appearing in GPC ATM and this would hopefully readdress the balance. (IMHO)

    If the 'vegas' threads were in the 'tournament' thread and not the GPC.......would they of got the amount of response they did?.

    Its too early for a normal Friday forum fight, so I will just say the above because I know it will be pointless in pursuing the 'discussion'.

    Within your typically well worded reply TK you mention you very rarely go to the shed.

    Same with me, I very rarely get past the main Poker Chat forum and hardly ever visit the Shed in particular.

    That's why I'm adding my name to this petition

    I think this particular thread deserves to be on the main forum .....giving it a "Coronation Street" or "X Factor" status if you like.

    By moving it to the Shed only the die hard forum regs will remember to visit it; and that would be a great shame. This is a chance for some cracking fun ....and to show the community at its best.

    I therefore still respectfully vote/suggest to......Move it back.
