Good idea!

However, I wonder if it will basically turn out to be another Opinion forum, with the only difference being that old topics are verboten.

No, it won't. I have a special surprise for this forum.

Okay. We'll stay tuned...

my guess is that this forum will be linked to an RSS news feed of some sort, and we make comments on the stories that pop up.

RIP creation vs evolution thread?

Whoa, it just blew my mind to see another section in the Off-Topic forum...

 

[Dave A]

If this gets used to it's full potential it will explode into life once it kicks off. I'm guessing this could be one of the busiest sections of the site ever, I'll certainly be using it if it works as planned which I have no doubt that it will.

NEW CURRENT EVENTS FORUM The long-awaited Current Events forum is here! Everyone will now feel much more open to create threads about current news stories that may not have been appropriate for the Opinions forum. A new bot user will keep the forum updated, posting news stories every few hours from an RSS feed.

https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/member.php?u=83268 Is our new news story feeder.

Could be a good addition to the forum. I'm not surprised Zardoz got the first post in.

I love the Anchorman. Should be a moving .gif, though.

But I can't help but feel that this forum will double some of what goes on in the Opinions Forum... much like Cars in General and Auto News do.

I so called this

I just moved the Ariel Sharon news thread here. Don't be afraid to break the ice in here - you don't expect Anchor Man to post everything, do you?

 

[THE ED3]

I like this a lot. I must admit I enjoy watching the news a bit much for a person my age...

 

[Pupik]

"Current Events"? Just like 2002, before it became the Opinions forum...

It will be interesting to see what becomes "newsworthy" or not to the mods.

This looks very cool! Will certainly be beneficial for my current events assignments at school 👍
