This post is not to argue for or against but to provide some background and additional perspective. Rumorville has been an on again/off again forum for many years. It usually resurfaced during major coaching changes or things of a similar impact. It was turned off in 2018 for a few reasons:

- It tends to cause quite a few board maintenance and organizational challenges

- Many users don't use it, so it's common for items to be discussed in both places without all users realizing it

- We field routine questions about whether non-sports items should be in there or their appropriate forum

When the mods discussed it last time, we landed on just notating rumored threads with either "rumor" in the subject line or some kind of question mark. We ultimately felt this was the solution that worked best and provided the most flexibility for overall board needs.

This is needed as a place for the stellar “inside info” that has been flung at the walls of many forums lately

 
Personally I don't care about adding rumorville back. It was a mess of mostly nonsense and made an extra forum check when coaching changes were happening. People are just butt hurt because of their own expectations again. Suck it up.  It wasn't like a bunch of random rumor threads popped up. Some coaching changes were up in the air and people reported possibilities in relevant threads that were already made. 

If we wanna make a special forum for Thurston to post in I'll sign that petition.

OK, that may be worth an amendment to the petition.

BTW - per HuskerBoard by-laws, if we get 75 endorsements to this petition, the Mods have to do what we ask.

It's science.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

10% of registered board users in order to bring it to a vote.

So, just need 1,208.

:D
