Figured we could do with a thread here to discuss how to have things set up.
Raw, SD, PPV threads? (+TNA, NXT, etc.)? Some kind of general mafia discussion to organise games? Maybe a few posts at the start of it (or in a general mafia tips thread?) explaining the concept of it and breaking down the different roles and such in case members of the existing SNC side of things feel like joining in?
Obvs open to any other suggestions

I'd keep them together for now until numbers rise personally.

Mafia? Explain, you've lost me.
I like the idea of a wrestling sub-section although I don't know if there is a big enough hardcore following of it on here to warrant one.

I'd say run them separately, but within the sub-forum for now. Like somebody in charge of the wrestling stuff who is active and reliable, and someone in charge of the RPing stuff who knows what they're doing.

I was thinking a thread for Raw and Smackdown together, don't really see the need for separate ones without the incessant spam you get during the live chats. I think it's something we can look at in a few weeks if it gets insanely busy but for right now I think the best would be a main Raw and Smackdown thread, possibly just a WWE TV thread to be honest if need be because I don't see NXT, Main Event etc getting enough discussion for their own thread. Then beyond that a PPV thread, then maybe a TNA, Japan and the Indies thread because between them they'll get a bit of discussion but not a huge amount.
An introduction to mafia thread would be a good idea, I'm not sure how much time you have on your hands but you're probably the single most knowledgeable person in that area @slim Jim so you'd be the best person to do that. If you don't have the time for it I'm happy to do it though, it's fairly simple to those of us who know it pretty well. Would obviously become the GD as well, including waiting lists and all of that kind of thing which I'll keep track of.
Beyond that other games I think can just be explained at the time, stuff like hurt and heal is fairly self explanatory, a simple introduction post at the start of the thread is the best thing to do there imo.

Probably have a WWE TV thread and then just another thread for everything else like all the other football leagues fit into

haha WWE Commissioner.
Smackdown & Raw, PPV and A thread of everything else sounds alright. General Mafia Discussion obviously. Dunno the stance of threads for news or "who deserves to be champion"-esque threads yet though. Unless we have a Dirtsheet Rumours thread similar to the transfers one.
That works actually, WWE like the Prem and then everything else like the foreign leagues thread makes most sense imo.

imdividual thread for raw, SD, nxt etc and monthly ppv thread imo. new thread after a set no. of pages ... no live chat so each show won't generate 60+ pages. then of course any threads that anyone wants to start themselves so long as there's decent discussion value as opposed to a thread for every Internet rumour that surfaces.

Yeah, sounds reasonable that there's just a WWE TV thread, PPV thread, Other thread and I like the Dirtsheet Rumours thread for 'news'. As far as Mafia goes, I have finals in two weeks (so I shouldn't have spent so much of day involved in this) but after those, I can do a proper Mafia intro thing. For now, the one I did on the old forum should suffice, and if you want to tweak it or whatever feel free.

Yeah that sounds pretty decent to me. In terms of news and stuff I think we can post threads for like major news in the same way as the football forum has but obviously a general dirtsheets thread as proposed above for the kind of shit metallica fucks on about every 5 minutes

dirtsheet rumors thread, raw, sd, ppv threads, general wrestling discussion? is the british wrestling thread still going on on neo? would work even better here w/ more brits. maybe a be the booker thread with current storylines? would generate good discussion even if the product's shit

Ah, just reading through the general discussion, didn't realise we were engulfing another old forum sub-forum abandoning the ship. Excellent.
Glad it's wrestling too, one I can actually participate in (although someone still has to explain what this Mafia stuff is).
What about a Network thread (or Nostalgia thread) for talking about old wrestling events/matches/gimmicks etc. that you might be watching at the time.

There'll be a full introduction to mafia when I open the GD, don't worry. Should explain everything but obviously smaller things youre unsure of you can ask pretty much any of us about and we'll be able to give you an answer. As for the network thread, I'm definitely in favour of that. So many old PPV's and whatever on there and it would double up really well as a kind of nostalgia thread because of how much older content is on there.
