Base on the number of people that interested and supporting the OFF TOPIC we are to add the off topic board in the Request Thread so that when the admin read the thread he will see everything and create the three Sub-boards mentioned above for us. I appreciate all the suggestions and comments. This shows we are one and moving forward to achieve our aims and goals. Though in a family there most be misunderstanding and that is part of any family. I will update the request thread with off topic later. Thanks

Thank you as well for soliciting for the well being of our local board, caliber of people like you shouldn't be scarce in our local board as your concern and efforts would not devoid. So to you and some other senior men who has taken this bold step and responsibility to make our local board convenient for all I applaud all of you and I hope to work with you someday as am still at the verge of growth in this forum.

I've casted my vote on the polls, and I went for the off-topic sub-board because it sounds cooler, but whatever the local members decide is okay, as long as it will help to organize things on the LB. But I really hope many people can vote for the off-topic s/board. There are some topics on our LB that do not fit into Bitcoin discussion, politics and society and I wouldn't want to call them other discussion because they are completely off-topic. So there's really need for an off-topic s/board.

Well for me , I have already selected an option in the pool which is the naija politics and other discussion because I believe this makes it a little less insulting Grin

as having one of your discussion moved to off-topic even if it's in the local board.

Other discussion will make the main local board to very less active, because all non bitcoin related threads are going to be reported and moved to other discussion. Later it will only result to people want off-topic board again. Off-topic board is not insulting but should be for what it should be for.

If other discussion should be created, we still need off-topic board, which would be what will later happen.

I think I concur to your opinion about the off-topic board, normally this forum was created for bitcoin discussion and bitcoin related activities so the main local board should serve for discussion about bitcoin while every other discussion should stand as an off-topic discussion. Navigating through the local board we can see that most of our discussion in the board are centered on politics, society, and the economy, so all of these can serve as off-topics therefore creating a sub board that will stand as a medium to interact and discuss threads that ain't bitcoin related should all be classified as off-topics.

Yes what you have just emphasis is just what we all are looking up to. There is a need for us to have other board in our Nigeria local board. In recent time there has been different thread created which are likely not worthy enough to be found in bitcoin discussion. but due to lack of other sub-boards like politics, off topic and others, people have been creating alot of thread that is not Crypto related and this has led many not to participate in our local board activities so we are pleading that our quest should be granted 🙏🙏 thanks

Hey did you people read the op post correctly?
Well I wouldn't mind to tell you both and other lower rank to go make your suggestion here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/proposal-for-naija-nigeria-lb-sub-boards-creation-5473185 since op said lower rank or inexperienced user shouldn't post comment, so the link i posted above will help more better than posting here. That is where majority will leads since it's a combination of multiple hands to talks and express our hearts towards this concern in meta board it would give more audience since the topic will be regularly bump by poster so it will always appears first in that section.

Then let go with the three because all the three Sub-boards mentioned are needed in the local board because those are the areas we are engaging in the board while discussing. And as other has said, it is good for us to ask everyone we needed in the board now so that we will not disturb the admin in the future to create more Sub-boards again so let us ask all now and also ask him to give moderator tat once since the board is growing rapidly let ask all we need now.

I will not say a poll is good in this regard if everyone would be included. I said this because I believe no newbies will choose off-topic. Or if something like this should be done, the vote should be manually done in a way people will post and choose what he wants in his post and not a poll like this which is available to anybody. Also this will help us against people not to vote with two or more accounts. But like your commented already, that may not be necessary again if we go for the three boards. We need off-topic because if we do not have it now, we will need it later after many people will say the other discussion board has turned to something else when it is full of off-topic discussions.

Off-topic was voted in by you and me because I knew Newbies and other old members who frequently use low quality posts on the board to spam signature posts count would not want us to have an off-topic sub-board so they could continue to spam.

We're a local board with over 100 active monthly posters, so anything less than 70-80 votes would be disregarded. There is nothing like "other discussion" anyplace on the forum, so we are looking unserious at this moment.

Those 3 Sub-boards that have been mentioned should be added in the thread at Meta so that when the admin check the thread to see the request they will see the 3 Sub-boards.

For me the Naija politics & Society and other discussion is okay. Other discussions. Other discussion doesn’t specify any particular topic so for me the two is enough.

Then in that case let us ask di three boards at once because request two boards now and later request again and that doesn't look nice for me. Because as it is people like the Other Discussions and from what you have explained that means the two boards in poll are needed and all are important to be created. And that means Naija Politics & Society, Other Discussions and Off Topics are main Sub-boards that needed so how do we do now? Should I add them to the request thread or leave it like that and change to Off Topics? Because the way I am seeing Other Discussions will definitely take over and Off Topics will be thrown out and that will not look good because we need am.

It would be nice like that. We need off-topic.

Well understood, but it's seem the poll so far is showing that the naija politics and other discussion is actually leading, but it's just the beginning and I believe everyone is well aware or maybe agbe should just make this part very noticeable when creating the other topics for the choice of these option of board here in the local board. Many users like the newcomer won't actually get the idea of the actual meaning of the off topic especially when it seem the original off topic board here in the board is a dumb yard for abstract discussions.

Poll has been added to this thread and the public opinion is needed. Let me make something clear here. The different between Naija Politics & Society and Off Topics and Naija Politics & Society and Other Discussions are:
In the Naija Politics & Society and Off Topics, all the irrelevant topics in the board will be dump there and any other topics that are not related to bitcoin will be found in that Sub-board and that might look like your topic is substandard and that is what is means in the general board so if we are bringing it to our board then we have to know the meaning first but the Naija Politics & Society and Other Discussions means, any topic that is not related to bitcoin can be found there and there is negative connotation in it. Therefore anyone we choose here will be the final decision in the board members. Go to the poll and make your vote count. Lolz!! If you don't like the result go to court. Grin

love you all.

The best is to create a new topic about this for more people to see it. We have known that we need two threads already which is either naija politics & society and off-topic or naija politics & society and other discussion. So the best you can do now is to create a new topic about it and let us vote. Some people may not notice this thread again.

Edit:
Just these two are enough based on what we have discussed before:

Naija Politics & Society and Off Topics
Naija Politics & Society and Other Discussions

It is clear that most people are going for off-topic, not other discussion.

A new topic all together isn't a bad idea since people here in the LB seem to answer or discuss in threads that are new here and more over the awareness will be faster as you have already stipulated. Well for me , I have already selected an option in the pool which is the naija politics and other discussion because I believe this makes it a little less insulting Grin

Am also in support of this, but we have to look more into this off topic we board we are going for, wouldn't this allow members to be posting anyhow or spamming with unsolicited discussions since they know it's not going to be fit in any where else, also if we should say that we are not going to include off topic there, people will still be abusing the other boards and there will be many unrelated threads that will be frequently reported to the moderators for off topic, so i like the way we are making tidy of the house before anything else could show up, nice works all the way.

Like on the English board, no members who want to advance in rank post on the off-topic board because it is constantly full of junk, and it saves moderators a lot of time because low garbage topics are thrown there instead of having to delete each post on the thread. Another group of people that occasionally visit the off-topic board are those with high rank who wish to talk or simply have fun on some amusing discussions.

Since we do not have a moderator, the off-topic board is essential for keeping the main and other sub-boards spam-free.

The only two board I could think of now which might be effective later on is the mining board but the issue is that there have not been any miner on our local board at the moment and the other is the price speculation board for bitcoin and naira.

Our discussion on mining is very low, the few we are discussing can still fit into the main Naija board. Also BTC/NGN board may not be necessary for now to avoid repetition. But if we are making more valuable topics that are related to BTC/NGN speculation, then we can have such a board, but not many of such topics on local board as of now.

Yes, this idea is better limiting spammers and possibly shit posters, should this be stated on here :Proposal For Naija (Nigeria LB) Sub-Boards Creation

Exactly.

@Agbe
Hope you are following this discussion. I think other discussion is worth reconsidering. People wants off-topic board. Let us not do something that we will later be looking for ways to still have off-topic board. I can remember you and some people posted that there were many spam topics on naija board, this is the time to let us make it work the right way. Do you think the spam or the spam-like threads are worth to be named 'other discussion'? Let us give it the name it supposed to be which is off-topic, irrespective of considering if people's posts counting or not counting for signature payment.
