Well i came up with another cool idea for the forums.

How about we have a monthly jokes contest in the Jokes forum? ??? Grin

People could post their favourite Jokes, and enter them into a contest. The principle would be relatively the same as the standard Screenshot forum, except with jokes, and alot more laughter. Grin Wink

At the end of the month, the mod's or whoever choose a selection of jokes, and you get to vote.

Obviously Rules will apply to make this still a family forum.

What you think? I think it will be quite fun personally, and give the users of the site chance to laugh off those Monday morning blues, competion sytle. Grin

Let me know what you think...moderations..adaptations etc.

Be interested in to what you think.......

Many thanks,

James Grin Cheesy Wink

what about "BPB"? someone would have to handcuff Andrew, and he's trained to kill, who wants to volunteer?

And on a second note, what about prizes? Respect?

Well it would be purely for fun, no prizes, and No BPB in the comp lol.
I was thinking of making themes for each month such as "holidays", "work", "lifestyle"

That way it would be harder to have 2 same jokes in different months, if you understand me.

Let me know what you think? Mod's?>

Thanks again.

So there'd be Funny Judges? I really think it can't be judged as so many people's sense of humo(u)r is different.

I'd enjoy one like most people. I haven't seen a mod post yet... maybe they are discussing it in the admin board before replying?

Here's an idea for the jokes forum. Make the words "been posted before" or any thing along those lines automatically change to "I like pie" or "My, that was a good one" or possibly "I like to where womens under garments on my head". It could work the same as when people type swear words and it comes out as "hog lubrication" and such.

If someone wants to run a competition feel free - only you will have to realise that it will run along side other forums threads so identifying a competition entry in the forum would have to be done by the entrant. Also means that selecting a few for voting may be difficult.

Not something I can see the mods getting involved with .....  Smiley - we have enough on our plates ....  Wink

I can understand that the idea may be time consuming and may take some extra time, and the mod's may not have time.

It was just an idea, but if the mod's arnt able to hold the contest, no problem.

After all its only an idea. Wink

A prize could be to have your joke added to a 'joke hall of fame'  and maybe to make it work better, have it stickied at the top of the cafe or something.

I think its a great Idea, lets do it!

Thanks Jake, But as Pete says, it would consume more time of the mod's and a possibilty of complications.

I still think its a great idea, and CAN be worked round, and im prepared to support it.

But those circumstances arise at the moment,
