would y'all rather have them in one forum where you can easily read them or still have them post here to allow discussion (if any). Unfortunately, you can't have an RSS feed (i.e. CL MSU Beat, Hail State Beat, ESPN SEC Beat writers) to post in more than one forum. Right now - it's set to post here.

All together in their own forum.. Just seem to clutter up the page and kick too many threads to page 2 when several come in at once..

They were coming in at once...

becasue of an error we found yesterday. They shouldn't do that anymore. With that being said, would you still want them in their own forum?

If they are in a different board, I will never see them

The only time I look at the other SPS boards is when I am going to look for something in particular.

I do wish there were some way to differentiate the RSS feeds from the regular topics to make them more noticeable.

Own forum with reply locked...If we want to talk about it, we can link it with a post over here.

I'd like them in a different forum where any news site with story on MSU sports could be found.

If they're in another forum, nobody will ever see them so you may as well just not even bother. I vote keep it like you have it now.

Between another forum or the way they are now?

Keep it the same.

You may have already covered this, but I'm assuming they can't be done at the top of the page in their own box like they were on the previous site? That way you don't lose them in the threads, people can still start a topic about them if they wanted to, and you don't have to go to a different page to see them (which I personally would probably never do).

Seconded. However, assuming this is not possible, I guess I'd prefer it the way it is now.

I'd rather not have to scroll past them in the header. That's the reason I didn't put them up top.

Great job with the RSS feeds. I like having them up top. Easier to find and they don't really get in the way.

Great decision about the separate forum, and glad you mentioned it... until now I had to bookmark both of their pages, but love the convenient one stop shopping offered at sixpack much better!

Separate forum. But I say don't lock it to replies.

To those that say they never visit the other forums you can always click the "new posts". It will show you all the new posts regardless of what forum they are in.
