I read all the posts your search turns up, and I can't see any *reasons* there at all. (The occasional 'I dont like' or 'We dont need', but those arent reasons, just excuses) - From which I take it the only real reason is that either a) adding new sections is hard (which wouldnt surprise me), or b) nobody has the time or motivation.
Regardless, this doesn't stop any pmdev from looking into the possibility. I'm not fond of golf at all, but I might.. Or someone else might get there first. Any that are so inclined are welcome to have a go at figuring out how it might work on the/our development server, just ask.
On a side note, I'd prefer if golfing contests disappeared from Meditations, then I wouldn't have to recognise and skip over them, I could just ignore the section, much like I do obfu and poetry..

I read those posts just now (the ones you linked to, i didn't search) and there realy weren't any rebutals. The normal "we hate change and thats why" reason. Is it difficult to just add a new section or is just a matter of keeping things simple? I'm not trying to be antogonistic I'm just curious of what reasons there are for not adding a category for golfing.

As eric256 and castaway have already said, there weren't any obvious reasons listed in the cites you posted. Would you, as a member of both power users and pmdev, be able to tell us why a Golfing section wouldn't be feasible?
If needed, couldn't we just morph the Craft section (which is unused) or the Quests section (which hasn't been posted to in 3 years) into a Golf section?
