Just a thought, How about adding a science forum to CoolROM?
Would anyone else be interested in a forum where we could share awesome scientific discoveries, and discuss them?
Here is an example of somthing that would fit nicely there:
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap060313.html
-its showing where scientists created a plasma field with the power 80 times the entire world's power, and is now registered as the highest temerature ever recorded on earth. I just think stuff like this would make for some great discussions.
So, What do you guys think? Will Admin go for it, or will it just be another ignored idea?

I think its good idea through it may be too complicated(atleast for me):D !

I'm O.K. with it, although I'm not too interested in most science. I do like cool little tricks or whatever. Like once I went to this science museium and found out how to see veins and blood cells in my eyes. It was pretty cool.
P.S. I also like how months aren't attracted to light, but to darkness. They fly to the darkest spot there is, which is right behind the light. Tricky. :D

hmm...I think its good idea, but one that will be ignored...maybe a knowledge forum? that why anything that is educational can be out in it. though a forum like that will need a very active mod are a few mods to fliter on the crap. and they need to be pretty smart i guess

Science is the process of proving natural things in the world. I learned that today in Biology class. :D

or DB, make a poll

THIS IS A WONDERFUL IDEA.
We can discuss modern advances in technology and the amazing things that can/have been done with science.
I think we should start setting up online petitions when we want to get a new feature added around here. That way, we could have majority rule and a written document, and Admin would have to try slightly harder to ignore us.
I'm big into science, too, so it's fine with me.

Science is the process of proving natural things in the world. I learned that today in Biology class. :DScience is not a process. And it's not for proving natural things in the world, it's for proving natural things in the universe. Your Biology teacher made that up.
As for the idea, I can't exactly say. It depends on how many users want it, but it would take a lot to make a science forum in an emulation website. Even sports seemed more general and worth being added. Don't get me wrong; science is one **** of a big subject, and I think it's more interesting than sports. But I don't think a place for scientific discussion between CoolROM users could be a forum like it could be a single thread where users talk about things. It could only have users posting in it for so long, and I just don't know. I leave it up to everyone else.

Yeah, you are probably right. I like more than sports too. But it probably wont be very popular, except for with a few of us. But hey, if is wasnt for science, video gaming and emulation would not be possible.
So here is a new idea:
What about a TECHNOLOGY forum? Surely this one would turn a few more heads.
and it hits a little closer to home i'd say

Or how about a SCIENCE/TECHNOLOGY forum? Lol, this sound like a good idea? Like I said, I'm not too interested in science, but it's pretty fun every once in a while.

I think a Science & Technology forum rightfully deserves a spot here.
I'm pretty sure it would get more attention than the Sports & Recreation board, which is off to a pretty solid start I might add.

*says meh to the sports forum...hates sports*
Yay science and technology! ^.^ *is a Big science person* Next we can make a history forum for the games that teach history!....ok maybe not but so what? I still think the Science/Technology forum should be made.

Yes, because Science & Technology (especially technology) is relevant to gaming.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I believe science and technology is very important in our lives, and especially relevant to gaming. Since most of you are interested in this new forum, I created it, and made DarthBrady a moderator. Please let me know if any of you are interested in assisting DarthBrady moderate the Science/Technology forum, or if you have any questions. Enjoy :).

Ask Admin if you want to join up, I dont mind. THere's not much to modding, I learned it front and back in a day or so ;)
Besides, I havent got to share one of my forums with another mod yet, it could be a good experience to co-mod with someone
But I must warn you, so far the forum is pretty Low-Traffic, so dont expect to have much to do there. ;)
