Description for Brazil Forum

Passionate about life: futebal, samba, nightlife everywhere in South America’s largest country. Home to some of the world’s largest companies: beer maker, soy producer, meatpacker, mining company and others. Diversity to suit almost everyone. Come and enjoy!!!


The proposed description above came from a thread originated by gfrodo just after the Brazil Forum was approved. Now we would like to have it or something better be used to describe the place.

Hey jbcarioca, I was just thinking about this the past week and hadn't gotten around to revisiting it. Glad you did!

As for the description, unless we have somehow completely overlooked something, I think it is OK. Don't want it to be too long and windy, I would imagine.

I have a suggestion: Get rid of those retarded forum descriptions.

Honestly -- does anyone ever read them? "Oh cool, I wasn't sure what the Brazil forum was about, but it appears Brazil is home of the world's largest meat packer, so I'm totally gonna check it out! ^"

Total waste of screen space.

Proposed Revised Brazil Forum Description

Passionate about life: futebol, samba, nightlife everywhere in South America’s largest country. Home to the two largest Carnival celebrations in the world. The Amazon and the Pantanal, both home to stunning diversity of plant and animal life. Diversity to suit almost everyone. Come and enjoy!!!


These changes have been suggested by a few, but we should continue to make it better until the campaign by Nerd and MagicianSampras becomes successful.

Thank you for your passion for the Brazil forum. This is what will help it flourish and grow.

If you would, drop me an email when you want a change made to the forum description. Use my handle or my first name (Carol) at flyertalk dot com.
