I was just looking for something related to olympics. I just saw the name and thought it's a news site about Olympic. Then maybe after a half an hour I decided to register. So I am here.

Similar to what happened to me honestly

Writing on forums has been on a downhill trend for years now. We shouldn't kid ourselves, we are in the minority here. :d Whenever i say to someone "forums", the response is "are you living 20 years in the past". Everything is facebook and instagram now (sadly).

I think Facebook is in the downhill trend as well.

 

I don't think if Totallympics opened 10 years before we would have many more users now. We are a niche forum and social networks are very generalists. The level of quality of sports discussion on Facebook and Instagram is crazy low :d

I think chat rooms have replaced forums too. Discord, WhatsApp, Messenger, etc. are much more popular than forums now, and, at least from my experience running our podcast Discord, they run better and function similarly.

      Add Taekwondo (Poomsae) to Olympics

      By Flippy · Posted

      Most people know taekwondo from watching the Olympics. However, only sparring is recognized in the Games - poomsae (forms) is completely left out. It's time for the Olympic program to acknowledge poomsae and give taekwondo's artistic discipline the recognition it deserves.   Sign this petiton: Make Poomsae an Olympic Sport

      Meanwhile Trump is - again - at the edge of legality by threatening a journalist/media company with jail time if not giving up a source for information around the US airman rescue in Iran. Nice and public on live TV.
