exactly why though? 🙄
I mean, if absolute garbage shows like Big Brother 🙂 reality TV 🤮 can get their own dedicated subforum, I seriously don't see why basketball can't get some love too.
The mods and admins.
The reasons? Honestly, there just aren't enough posts or active users in the basketball threads. Plus, the main section of the site feels way weaker now because they've been stripping away topics—first tennis, then basketball—while we're all just sitting around waiting to see what happens with the tennis subforum. And let’s not forget the fact that years ago, we had a dedicated basketball thread and it crashed and burned miserably...
Look, it’s not about how "important" a topic is. If you want proof, look at the Formula 1 subforum. Believe it or not, Formula 1 isn't even a thing in America, most people find it boring, you can't play it recreationally, and there's zero history with Americans... Seriously, the only reason F1 even exists here is because it's been on TV for ages. So, contrary to everything you'd expect, it has its own subforum and has had one for a long time. It's not about importance; it's about whether the users and mods actually give a damn about keeping the subforum alive, posting, and bringing in new people to watch and talk about it. Thanks to a bunch of veteran users—specifically thinking of the FIA and Sep—F1 has stayed relevant for years.
Then you’ve got handball. By any logical standard, that should have had its own subforum years ago, but it doesn't because the people on this site clearly don't care about it. We can't change that. We can be the best in the universe at something, but if the people on this site aren't interested, there’s no point in having a subforum because there’s nobody there to write anything.
