Gav - Any chance of a Covid section? 23:03 - Dec 22 with 2704 viewsSarge

I don’t want to put posters on ignore because their other contributions are quite good but any chance of a filter for covid threads? I know there’s not much else going on in the world right now but it is Christmas and it would be nice to not have doom and misery in your face every other thread. Positive news, whilst not as easy to come by, doesn’t seem to be as popular.

If you want to avoid doom and misery, can I respectfully suggest you also avoid the Football section.

Self discipline would work. It is easy to identify a Covid thread just don't click on it.

Yes it is, but unless the subject and viewable body text just say ‘This is a covid thread’ it’s pretty hard to avoid ‘look how many hundreds more people died today’ or ‘more restrictions coming your way’ or things to that extent.

I think the best solution is to do away with the general thread section all together. If you look across most threads on it, it's the same 5 or 6 'experts' giving their 'knowledgeable' views on it all anyway. If anyone has any other opinion on any subject (not just covid) , they are quickly put down. Hence l have just taken to putting the odd silly comment up over the last few months. Oh how it gets up their backs. Sad on my part, but also on theirs.
It's a football forum first and foremost. There are plenty of forums out there for all the macho opinions some have on here about every subject under the sun.

Not sure Gav's going to be up for making a change like this a couple of days before Christmas! When we split to general/football there was a consensus that any wider splits might dilute the board somewhat. Hopefully, as we go forward the Covid threads might start to be more positive as more of us start to have the vaccine.

Presumably the more you sub divide the more difficult to police. What next separate areas for Politics, then for non football sport., Daily Mail readers, Guardian readers....

1. Ignore a thread.
2. Select 'Football only' as your view of the board.
3. Get even more depressed by the futility of human existence.
4. Dial 116 123
