@newnicky ROBLOX does not allow political threads because they often result in flame wars. You could easily imagine how a thread entitled "Barack Obama > Mitt Romney" thread would go. There is not much to flame about regarding history, also considering most people there would be fairly competent. As long as the mods keep a fairly watchful eye on the subforum, I really don't see why not. Also, your previous argument, which stated that this subforum shouldn't be a part of ROBLOX forum because it does not pertain to ROBLOX, is completely invalid. Look at "Entertainment" (where I'm guessing History would go). "Videogame Fans" "Forum Games" "Sports Fans" (I can assure you nobody talks about ROBLOX sports games there) "Music Fans" (nobody talks about ROBLOX game soundtracks there) "Movies/TV/Books" "Role-Playing" Most of those do not pertain to ROBLOX in any way whatsoever.

@newnicky If History was Off Topic, then ROBLOX would also have to remove Sports Fans, Music Fans, etc., because those are also all Off Topic. You cannot expect to have an intelligent conversation with someone on OT. In these more specific off topic forums, you can. That is the whole point.

@recruit History has nothing to with Entretainment. I am sure other people would agree. I am sure nobody enjoys history because just posting this thread is say people hate history and they need help on it. Some people it may be entertaining but most people do not care.

@newnicky "History has nothing to with Entretainment. I am sure other people would agree. I am sure nobody enjoys history because just posting this thread is say people hate history and they need help on it. Some people it may be entertaining but most people do not care." -- Did you take a survey? No. You can't say that more people like this or that if you don't actually have any evidence to support that argument. Since you didn't do any surveys or take any samples, "most" is an opinion, thus also an invalid argument. You should not guess to prove your point. Also, what about sports? Sure, it is quite likely that more people take interest in sports than history, but that does not mean that everyone likes sports. I assume that many girls dislike sports (yes, I am aware that this is an assumption, but it is still a fairly valid assumption), and in general, not everybody takes interest in sports. Even if only a minority likes something, that doesn't mean you shouldn't add it, because it isn't hurting the majority who aren't fond of it. It's like this. Say you own a restaurant, and you're coming up with menu options with one of your employees. The employee thinks you shouldn't add brownies to the list because most people don't like brownies. First of all, this is an assumption, he cannot prove that most people do not like brownies. Second of all, if it gets put on the menu anyway, that will still attract more people, because the people that dislike it will continue to come since it doesn't hurt them at all, and the people that do like it will come more often. Also, bump.

Thanks everyone for supporting this idea, I was just gonna give up on it due to all the immature stupid haters hating on it.
