Missing a couple of big sections.

Been here for a while now and dont understand why theres no Diabetic section in the health section or no Basketball or Hockey section in the sports section.
Or am i not looking in the correct areas?

Hello..Mods? jambo101 Apr 2013 #1
Probably because nobody ever asked for those specific groups? cyberswede Apr 2013 #2
While there are hosts in this forum (I am one), there are no mods per se. cbayer Apr 2013 #3

That said, you can discuss diabetes in the Health group or maybe the Chronic Health Conditions group, and all sports can be discussed in th Sports group.

So members who post questions may or may not get responses from the general population.

Anyway, you may want to ask your question in the Ask the Administrator Forum. In general, if you can garner enough support for the establishment of a new group, the admins have (recently) been very receptive to setting them up.

So, you may want to start threads in the general sports group and health group to see if there are enough people interested in forming new groups.

Hope that helps.

In a forum this large i tend to get a bit lost as to where to post a particular topic sometimes.Ask admin seems logical..
And yes cyberswede you are right about discussing Diabetes in the general health section but you could also discuss the other 16 subforums on health in the general health section or the other 6 sports sub forums in one general sport subforum.

PS i can see the no hockey as there hasnt been a single hockey post in at least a year.
