I am asking the almighty admins to consider the addition of a travel board. On any given day, you'll notice several threads on the 1st page of the OT regarding travel related topics. Today's examples are planning a european vacation, Portland Oregon, and favorite vacation.

This new board would take a lot of clutter away from the OT ranging from asking about things to do in small town Texas to cheap weekly airfare. I also think people would use the search feature more often on the board instead of having to go through countless OT threads where a place such as 'New York City' was mentioned. I think this would benefit the entire TD community by providing a better way to share our travel experiences and questions with one another rather than dealing with the typical shenanigans of the OT. Thank you for your time

Combine it with the Food Board, like ShaggyBevo does

And add The Symposium

ahhh yes. That was my best idea since redfield and I invented the "penalty box" board idea.

Not a bad idea...Seems like most of the people asking for travel suggestions look for food suggestions as well

Please tell me this is just what I think it is...

All the banned posters relegated to one board to "talk" amongst themselves...

An idea of mine that Spirit of Thievery tried to steal (hence his attempt at humor earlier in the thread)

I don't think these threads clutter up the OT at all.

at some point if every different subject is given its own board then the OT will be stuck with the good morning thread, the lunch thread and the LNST. Maybe those should get their own board and the OT can have everything else.

That's the point I've been trying to make in all these board request threads. Its making the OT worse by continually removing the subjects that provide some substance to the board.

Without new boards, threads would stay on the front page for a very limited time (minutes in some cases.) There needs to be a balance between board expansion and content but when lots of topics emerge on similar topics for an expended period, it is time to evaluate if it is time for board expansion.

My response would be if topics were popular or wanted they'd stay on the front page. It's not like the OT moves as fast as the Score Board when we throw an INT.

Combining boards may be a viable option.
