I think that's a very good idea. And as you can see, here's the forum!

Thanks! Of course again tonight I stepped out of the shower to find a couple of Japanese players on the show Nanda!?. It was the Seibu Lions' Hiroyuki Nakajima, along with Hitoshi Taneda of the Yokohama BayStars discussing batting forms.
This isn't the first time I've seen baseball players on that show. Maybe I should keep checking the listings every week now that the baseball season is getting near.

Since the forum is unmoderated and there is the risk of spam or flaming, how about limiting posting to the threads by registered members only?

Another excellent suggestion. And done.
It's really not much of a road block, but should keep spam-bots away.

Question, would it be possible to allow members to post media guide info for other Asian baseball leagues? I'd be interested in watching a game from South Korea or Taiwan over the Internet, if it's even possible. Or would you rather that section be kept for Japanese baseball?
I've been keeping an eye on the "Around Asia" thread, and I remember watching a little bit of the different styles during the Olympic qualifiers in Nov. 2003.

While the Media Guide forum is mainly for timely notices of baseball related broadcasts in Japan, I have no qualms about Internet broadcasts of other Asian baseball games being announced there as well.
If there's a site that has KBO or CPBL games frequently, a permanent link in Media Guide and under Links would be most appriciated, with information on how to get the game to come up for those who can't read Korean and/or Taiwanese.

About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.

Another purpose of the forum/thread could be to help fans who are visiting Japan to catch Japanese baseball on TV. For example, baseball highlights & interviews can be seen on Suporuto every night on Fuji TV in the Tokyo area around midnight, channel 8 for most people around Tokyo I believe.
It would not have to be limited to just Japan though. For example, those NPB fans living outside of Japan could post items about such and such a station doing a special interview with Hideki Matsui or any other Japanese player. Or perhaps when a movie about Japanese baseball is going to be on TV? (I know, Mr. Baseball wasn't exactly the best movie.)
If information is posted though, I think the basic requirements would have to be 1) time, 2) channel, 3) region, and 4) description of broadcast.
Thoughts?
