I'm all for it if we're also going to talk about the impact of a high school education in local school districts. Take it to the money piece of the budget process in suburban, urban, and rural districts. How all of this is tied together and affects property taxes, community development, etc... I'd like to see it go to another level.

Well said! Public education is so f-ed up now. Teachers are being furloughed, government is taking over schools which requires the firing of all staff, and resources are limited. The state of Georgia cut about 2 billion from its educuation budget and NY 1.1 billion. That's insane!:hmm: Students will be sitting in classes with 35+ students and eating sack lunches next year.

So Im all for the "Ed Forum". Leave No Child Left Behind.. Behind!

Appreciate the support.

Times are getting too hectic to not respond by aggregating our efforts to uplift one another even after the beef and BS.

I hope the mods are taking note of the votes.....

:cool:

There are valuable existing threads and other contributors who are willing to drop more stuff but if it has to be buried under the 15 dayers and gossip threads, how useful do they become.

We have a unique opportunity to reach a wider audience and we cannot be so entertained to not be able to handle the serious side of life.

There is a Comic Forum, a Photography Forum, a Movie Forum

Are we that scared of Education?

Just drop a vote so we can gauge interest.

Of course asking a mod to make this poll a sticky may be an exercise in futility, we shall see...............

Do It !!!!

Enuf knowledge gets dropped on this forum. Having a dedicated Education forum allows the knowledge to be kept in one place.

Don't make me curse you out Kaya .... I been complaining about the lack of an education and in my frustration cursed out mods and HNIC. I should've contained my frustration and used it in a constructive manner to gather info like you did. Props!

PMan .... I agree

Still amazes me that it takes the kind of effort you exerted and still nothing.

Imagine there is a Fuck Stories Forum and we are still screaming for an Education Forum.

It's like we are trying to keep ourselves dumbed down and then blame dwight man..........

You could put the DIY INSIDE the education forum.

I hope someone can truly put this together... so far all we got is polls.

It's the easiest thing in the world to ask if someone wants something. What's hard is actually doing it. I'm starting to think its all talk.

No one can even get a thread going, and they're talking forum. :rolleyes:
 
Yes too many other forums are quick to close threads on education when people get alittle chippy
 
The first option in the poll should have been an eloquent "FUCK YES"!!! I love learning new shit all the got damn time and I know cats on here got caves of knowledge. I'll share whatever I got. Like Jay Z said: "I'm at the finish line waiting." start this bish!

PS: The white folks are telling other white folks shit. Why aren't we?

How many people post on BGOL? And how many votes?

Don't not the results, note the lack of participation.

And Kaya, you made your point too. Stop responding.

You jokin' right? Do a search for Cyba and see the threads that I've started. 90% of the threads I've started are full of educational material. Shit I even started a CCNA study thread and helped start the stock study thread.

Don't get me started fam ... I got a real estate investor thread and a tax lein thread filled with tutorials that I wrote myself based on my own experiences. I was giving dudes real estate leads and all they had to give me was they zip codes. (If you knew what you was doing each lead was worth minimum 3k). Let's not forget the get online money threads ... I must've made several hundred dollars off of the referrals from ONE online program.

YES I SAID SEVERAL HUNDRED, not gazillion ... I ain't ballin like you cats.


You can't find it cause you ain't looking.:smh:

By underestimating the power of what an education forum can do ... you underestimate the power of ......

YOU and OUR people. PERIOD

The problem is finding those threads, its like looking for a needle in a haystack.

With an Education Forum we can move all those threads into one location and aggregate the information by topic.

I'm excited and as you said we cannot under-estimate the power of education...........

We have several people in this thread already willing to CONTRIBUTE


:yes::yes::yes:
 
i think i change my mind
an education forum that contained some of them sub forums like health and fitness and the business forum my not be such a bad idea
 
Bring it on.... even though it is an insult to some.


This can't be about pussy only...


:lol::lol::lol: ...at the second option of the poll...

Thanks for the support.

It will contain threads on certifications, maybe 1 thread per certification.

e.g
Cyba already has a CCNA thread where the books, simulation software etc is posted and members set a schedule and go through the prep supporting each other until certifications.
Other certified members drop insights to the exams etc....

it's a lot of possibilities for progress.....

:yes:
 
It will also contain programming tutorial threads.

JDWalker already has a thread on learning PHP but it's lost in the main board madness.

There are also threads on Wordpress, creating a website from templates etc.... that are lost in the madness.

BGOL has too much talent to go to waste.

:cool:

I'm not going to create an education forum, we have enough forums right now that are not being supported. If you want to make the education forum the sub forum of one of the existing forums, I have no problem with that.

Can you delete that Fuck Stories Forum and replace it with an Education Forum.

The number of forums would remain the same.........

So if when this "education forum" is created and when you realize that most of your attendees will be crickets, what will be your complaint after that?

You all have a point.

DIY, ebooks and ?? are already sub-forums that would be included in an education thread. Why not take any of those or all of them and combine them into an education forum. The hard part will be to find the JDWALKER and WORDPRESS and JOB INTERVIEW and PHILLY and OWL and KAYA threads and put them in there.

I think this is the best idea right here. I would go for a sub-forum too.

Religion sub-forum >>> Education sub-forum in initial interest and on-going participation, that's a guarantee.

Plus it has benefits for the main board, such as when those topics occur less over there, all religious people who prefer to spend their Sunday mornings on BGOL looking for porn will be able to find it easier and more guiltlessly.

Both would have benefits but a religion forum/sub-forum is more likely to succeed, IMO.
