Default A non-outdoor type site?

Hi...


Was wondering...would anyone be interested in a 'non-outdoor'-oriented site on OBC?

Thanks.

Path,
Half the stuff on here is already nonoutdoors related.

Huh? I don't know what this means.

Well, we've covered the kitchen, (recipes) living room, (tv and politics) grandmas sewing room, grandpa's man cave, (guns and bucks) bathroom (showers and how to go potty in the woods) but my grandkids sometimes come here so I'd prefer to leave the bedroom out.

You normally have good ideas pathfinder, so what exactly are you thinking about?

Hi...


Well, I was thinking about the "political' sight for example. Some posters aren't interested in same...so knowing what the potential contents might be like...such viewer may just choose to not look at it.

If I wanted to talk about the vehicle crash I had yesterday (REALLY, I DIDN'T!), some readers might have wanted something like that posted elsewhere (as in 'Why should I be Interested in His Vehicle Crash'?).

Or think "Hey, that's not outdoor related".

Just askin'.

Good point. And I like it. sort of an "off the wall" category.

Hi...


How true.

And some are catagorized, like "Two Eskimos", and "Political". (Might have been by popular demand, though).

I always figured that Travelers Tavern was the place to speak of these things you seem to be talking about.
