If I knew a global forum would get decent support, I would do it right now. I am unsure if it will. So therefore the 30 day poll.

Eight days was not long enough to gauge real interest.
Fact is though Roger, it brings members in just by being there.

Mods are also quick to move posts from forum to forum so if there was a brit domestic fight in the general section it could be moved to british thus generating posts.

In time it would pick up. There a new season of boxing about to kick off on Sky next month where there will be dometic fights on every week.

It was busier than other forums we have on the board too.

I for one am not jumping from section to section to talk about certain fighters. I wish we could see the votes, I'd hate to see some alts in there which I'm afraid of already.

I see no proof of that at all. The forum is growing bigger on its own. The lounge brings more people in than you'd think.

Everyone is here to talk boxing, it doesnt matter where it takes place. Having one main area is the best way to go about it. I've never even stepped into this british boxing section.

Yeah you have no proof, of course you dont. You never had access to the Admin Cp like me Shane or Roger....I used to check things like that all the time.

And yes, British posters on here picked up BIG TIME after that was introduced.

Our fighters are the most followed in boxing. Thats just a fact.

Not exactly true. If a forum is here, yes, guests will browse it, I will give you that; however, if no one posts in it, or the forum appears slow...guests will just browse.

Yes, that is what mods should do.

I think such a forum would do well, in time.

I did. But than I saw a post that was made a month ago was still new. So I knew the place was a grave yard.
