In Response to Re: A Team Forum : 1 - They've got to see it first. 2- Nope, but you can organise it better. Anyway, the inevitable has happened and the thread has been taken over by team captains/participants, DTD organisers, and community mods (who fall into all 3 catagories), so I don't stand a chance trying to reason against that lot on mi todd. It's not even a big deal just thought I'd reply to a reasonable opening post with an alternative P.O.V. Will look forward to a new DTD thread going up on Friday, hopefully at the top, as a sticky though. You know it makes sense Posted by DOHHHHHHH
A brand new Forum DTD thread goes up once a week that's how it works
In Response to Re: A Team Forum : EXCELLENT PLAN!!!! Welcome to the Monday madness!!! If I may, I'd like to point you in the direction of the team threads in general poker chat where I understand TPT (Team Poker Trev) TNP (Team Ninja Ploppers) and THS (The Hit Squad) have an ongoing recuitment drive!! GL & see you on Mondaaaayyyyyyyyy xx Posted by TRIP5
as the said 'troll' of the previous thread (something of which i deny whole heartedly) i feel i should put my tuppence worth in,i agree with dohhhh completely there should be a seprate section for the team aspects of the forums.
The main problem is that most of the regs are in a team of some description so therefore the team posts will get more replies and will be at the top of the forum listings..If there were to be a new interesting thread from a new player asking for help ( as in dohhhs example) then within 5 minutes there will be lots of replies to the THS/TKP etc team threads and this persons questions will be on page 2, and lets be honest who ever looks at that!!!!
I dont know what the problem is it is called general poker chat,the word general in this context meaning 'Affecting or concerning all or most people'. how can a thread about a team which only applies to a handful of people be in GENERAL poker chat....the area 51 stuff has more right to be on here then that

JJ I as you know fall into all 3 catagories, my personal viewpoint is this............ 1/ I think the DTD thread should be left exactly where it is in GPT it's one thread a week and does a lot to bring the community together. 2/ The suggestion of creating a new section in the forum for teams if viable then yes why not
however I hope that if this is the case and the traffic on the forum slows right down people will be big and honest enough to admit it was a mistake to do this, because after all Sky Poker prides itself on the community asspect

this would actually depend on you guys that are in the teams,do you just dismiss anything pn the site now that is not related to your team thing...would you just ignore a post without reading it because your team is not in the title..if this is the case then of course the forum will be dead afterwards

not at all the forum is there for that reason and I'm sure if you spend a bit of time going thru posts in non team related threads you will find that members of all teams do post in them

well if what u just said is true then the forum will still be very active even if the team stuff gets moved out,great lets do that then
DEFINITELY a seperate part of the forum. Also all the DTD stuff should be in the tournaments section, I have no idea why it isn't, especially as most of the community mods are involved in either playing or running it. Any thread that is mis-placed is jumped on within 15 minutes nowardays, so I don't know why tourny based threads are allowed to stay in GPC, can anyone explain? Posted by DOHHHHHHH
you are always sharing your views with the forums why not be part of it. its human nature to be part of a group. to many people live a lonely life without friends , forgotten, looking at their computer trying to reach out but failing. the only true contact is the knock on the door . its the takeaway man with your meal. you pay him he goes nice man. im sure if you asked a team would welcome you in. go on be part of a family. feel wanted.be happy. be part of a rail, you will never look back
LOL before all this team malarchy come along it was constant moaning etc thats all you can read in GPC now your moaning that theres too much you can easily just skip them. its all part of the banter and you dont have to be a part of the team to join in.
i gurantee GPC would be 9/10 im leaving threads or moaning if they create a team seaction on the forum
i am infact totally against it altogether easier to find all good things in GPC saves siving through rubbish etc
Jesus i think you will fit in area51 maybe they have a vacancy....

This is just not so - any replies go on the same thread and even with a thousand replies on a thread it has no effect on any other thread.

I am captain of the reigning sky poker team champions.
If and when sky poker finally put on another proper, organised team competition, me and my team will be raring to go, ready to defend our crown.

well it does because the thread with the most recent replies goes to the top!!!! so the numerous team threads will always be at the top due to the constant drivel that is on them...also is it necessary for their to be more then 1 thread for each team..

That is insulting to the guys who work so hard to make the DTD a success.
I agree with Maxally.........and YES there should be a seperate teams section and do away with the stupid stupid ridiculous Poker Clinic (which btw still posts hand histories with players names in them all the time, even though this is NOT supposed to happen???? pls explain )
Oh and as regarding the original issue............why not post the suggestion of Team Section in the Community suggestions area???

I'm not talking about the naff "team red, team blue, team green thing" that I didn't participate in.
I'm talking about the original "sky poker team championship" - teams of 10, which were picked by the participants.
I believe this is how TKP was born, from 2 of the losing teams in this competition merging together.
The winning team in this inaugrial sky poker team championships, was a team called "TEAM DOHHHHHHH", created, captained, and organised by myself.
It was a fun week of poker. Lets do it again.
Each team (there were 40+ teams of 10) had their own thread in the sky poker tournaments section of the forum.

Go and troll somewhere else.
You've made 200 posts, hardly a reg are you - and don't say it's because the forum is clogged up with ''constant drivel'' because your m8 Dohhhhhhh is on 9000 posts.
Go and cause trouble elsewhere - I know....... you could have your own ''have a whinge'' section and leave the majority of the forum in peace.
