Be Excellent To Each Other

I know there's been discussion about splitting the place into subforums, and on the whole I agree that it's a bad thing because we don't have the numbers in the userbase to justify it. This, however, is an idea I believe merits attention: a subforum devoted to cooking and recipes. I suggest it as a subforum because it's naturally of interest to only some of the board and naturally organises itself once it's in a subforum (one thread per recipe). It is possible many of the threads will not have discussion but I think that's OK, like the reviews forum this one isn't about discussion so much as handing out information.

However, I don't know how many people on here are interested in cooking, so I don't know if it would get enough interest. I am, but I may be in a minority. So, what do people think?

I like cooking, but am against the idea of more sub-fora. Just put COOKING in the title and away we go!

Ironically, on World of Bistro, there was a Cooking sub-forum. This was then renamed to Recommendations, which was then carried across to here. How ironic is that? Man, that's pretty gosh darn ironic RIGHT There duder!

That is truly ironic, like the image of Alanis Morissete crushed to death in a freak car accident involving a lorry carrying ten thousand spoons.

971 bananas.

Suggestion: a cooking mega thread for all cooking related chat and reciepes PLUS register cookingexcellentlytoeachother.blogspot.com where anyone with a recipe can publish to each (either just PM the account/password to people who want to publish their recipes or set interested parties up as authorised bloggers of the site as its dead simple).

Tada for 5 mins work the Beteo/BEEX brand has another website in it's family. For a repository of cooktastic foodicles.

I also suggest a porn subforum called cockingexcellentlytoeachother.blogspot.com.

We had a cooking megathread in the recommendations (formerly recipes) subforum back over on WoB. Let's do it again!

*stares at jonarob*

Turn off the ignore filters for a minute or two, eh people?

I read your post, but yours didn't refer to the cooking megathread, just the sub-forum formerly named the recipe forum.

This. The occasional thread about a subject will mean that everyone interested talks about it a length for a while until we all get bored, and it fades, and then comes back when we're not bored of it anymore. With a load of sub-forums though, you'll just get a load of dead forums that nobody can be arsed to visit, and a 'other stuff' forum full of tedious LOLCAT internet wankery.

Slow roast belly port is slooooow roasted.

Hey, good point! Man, I sure wish someone had suggested taking the current sub-forums and putting them back into the main thread, but maybe marking out their content type with an icon or something in a simple fashion that we could all enjoy. Damn, I wish I had asked questions and stuff to that effect yesterday, and people had replied to it in a manner such as that which I am quoting.

Sundays are for bitterness.

Hey man, I'm agreeing with you! Obviously I haven't read the other thread where you did this, but I'm still saying things that support you.

Give me allies to fight against!

Oh, I wasn't having a go at thee, Mr. Agent. just lamenting that everyone is saying 'Hey, let's all have a jumble sale!' the very day I cease spending the last few days trying to organise that very same thing, only for it to be shit upon by the collective tardness of this forum. In a general sense it's a tardy forum. IMO

That's 'tardy' as in 'slow to get things done' of course. I would never, ever, possibly even dream of thinking of the other meaning, oh heavens, no.

Oh, but it's the weekend, CUS - weekends are always a bit slow - people often just miss things. S.A probably just didn't see the thread, and I don't think people were disregarding your ideas yesterday, there just weren't enough people around for anyone to bring anything new to the table and people just pretty much agreed with you.

Are you implying we're all goshtards or something CUS?

'Goshtard'?

I've long been rather disappointed that nobody has thought to call me CUStard.

That is good. Damn, I wish I'd thought of that now.

I get so bored, I have to come with better insults and nicknames for myself then the ones I'm given.

We need a dimlie for insufferable arrogance.

A dimlie of Angus Deayton's face would do that nicely.

I will write receipe for MaliCurry later tonight.

You're a genius.

Took you long enough to notice.
