Suggestion for a new thread/section re: RIGGED

[Poker Orifice]

Here's a suggestion for the site.
How about having a section for all threads with the more 'rigged' or conspiracy-related stuff in it. THen all threads that get hijacked by a rigged believer could have their post moved to the 'rigged section'.
Also, anyone wishing to post about how all sites are rigged (or that one's rigged.. that one's got house players & bots, that one's this... this one's that, etc.) can do so in the 'ALL THINGS RIGGED' thread.

I've seen this done on other forums and seems to do a really good job of keeping the thread content decent & on topic. Perhaps also good for the rigged posters too... as they can compare their theories with one another and really do some research on the rigged topic. (others could post comments to the contrary there as well).
As it is I find myself occassionally commenting on 'rigged posts' that are in other threads... not sure why I bother except for perhaps to give some newer players some insight & to maybe keep them from wasting their time going down the wrong path (ie. a pokersite.. like Pokerstars,.. seems to have more 'rigged' stuff in it these days than anything else).
Just an idea.

I dont think it should all be stuffed into one thread

take for example the UB scandal, that deserves its own thread

UB scandal... which one?
Pretty sure the situation at UB doesn't fall into the category of threads/posts I was referring to (as it's a legitimate concern obv.). I'm talkin' about the tinfoil hat "IT's RIGGED' stuff... the stuff that doesn't get any space in other forums (except like as suggested, in one they have their own 'special' section for it).

Like the ones here where people say Stars is rigged and they can proove it because they didn't there so that has to mean they are rigged and shoddy,rofl

Yah... yah... exactly! Like those ^ ones.

most good sites don't entertain the "rigged" theory
also 1 big thread might attract a negative weight for thread page ranking
..specially for a small site

Thread page ranking? < what is that? enlighten me.
" a negative weight for thread page ranking"... < is this suggesting that there might be alot of threads/posts going into this section? if so.. so be it. It'd keep them off of the others so perhaps some decent discussion could take place without a post hijack by a riggtard. How would that be negative?

for example the current Pokerstars fixed! thread, Google has it ranked about 30th
the more replies and views the more weight it will get, the higher up the rung it goes.
which push down, example Hollywood Poker Bonus Review article

If I was looking for a poker site to play a league game and seen one of the most important threads in the forum happen to be 'ALL THINGS RIGGED', I'm likely to keep looking.

hi

this was already planned 9-12 mnths ago for when I finally get the site moved over to new setup including upgrading VB and adding some things to the forum

unfortunately Im down to 3 clear mornings a week to work on sites instead of when I used to work on sites more 24/7 and getting the move done is taking months instead of weeks - its nearly done

there will be either a new rigged section or possibly the bad beat section will be retitled to include "poker is rigged" threads (I cant off the top of my head decide what I had decided was best) - this will also tie in with some other changes on the forum as I think we have too many sections and some can be merged

the now completely underwelming change to the new setup will happen (was planning a totally redesign but end up similar to how it is) and then I can add some of these things

cheers SB
