bumping of old threads and personal chit chat in the threads

[Kujo]

EDIT - D = Fingercuffs? I thought Alyssa was Fingercuffs...

D dated Rick Derris and Cohee Lundon before Alyssa did.

Kujo was the dead guy on the toilet that Kaitlyn got comatosed over. turns out Kujo wasnt really dead, he just seemed that way with his minimal effort.



I cant imagine when CD comes out the people that will come here.

So many are use to the unregulated message boards and they will bring that over here which will suck but I however am very confident in Jarmo and the mods and I honestly dont expect this board to miss a beat.

It just seems like some are making it out like every single thread on the board turns into a big joke fest and I personally havent seen that.

I brought back the HTGTH story so people could use it to get it out of their systems.

If a thread is truly serious and is hotly debated u will never see a silly joke.

Depends on the thread is all Im saying but its been that way for as long as I can remember.

A thread will be popular and debated for a few days, everyone gets exhausted and tired of arguing so it turns light.



I get tired of people bumping old threads just to prove that a thread has already been started.

But u know if a thread was started september 2001, I really dont wanna use that thread to talk about something on my mind and people should let that thread stay buried and dead and not try to prove a point by bumping it back

I agree 100 percent on that.

So, were you ever able to see the sailboat, D?

Its hard to see the same topics just keep coming up over and over and not make a smartass comment every now and than, but thats just me. I've been coming here and posting for so long, there hasnt been a new topic thats caught my interest on the main board for some time now.
So I am guilty of just kind of loitering around waiting for when things get interesting again. Im willing to bet over 95% of my posts are in the off topic sections. It just depends on the different people's personalities on how they spend their time here.

Contrary to popular beliefs Jarmo isnt the hardass some individuals make him out to be. Its his place and his rules but he is pretty lenient on what he allows as long as you are respectful to the other individuals here, minus the occasional ball busting. Hell there has been times he's contributed to the ball-busting. Anyway give the guy a break. Its bad enough hes going to grow up to look like Colonel Sanders he doesnt need more trouble here

no problem.

i was just wondering about it. 

there has been a lot of bumping recently... and i've seen a lot of on topic posts recently buried under chatting and joking that was off topic

my feathers are not ruffled...

i just thought i would be contributing something positive to the board by asking about it

Bumping a thread that hasn't been posted in since 2004 just to say "that's stupid" or "this isn't true anymore" is really pointless.

It's one thing to add to the discussion (which actually happens sometimes), but in most cases people will just look up old threads so they can point out how others were wrong.

Two things that make this message board great is the moderation so there is  no flaming etc and no duplicate topics


A duplicate topic is if I post lets say "London Bombed" and the same day two more people post the thread "terrorist attack London" and "London under attack"

most boards will let all 3 stay open, but not here.

If i post "are u superstitious" and someone started that thread june of 2003, that to me isnt a duplicate thread.

I dont want to pull a topic 7 pages long back to the main page just to post why Im superstitious and I know people arent gonna read through 7 pages.

So its best to start a fresh version of a topic just cause there are new people, others may have developed new ones etc etc etc.

This board is great at shutting down duplicate threads and verbal flaming etc.

thats why its the best

as long as thatdoesnt change everything will stay perfect to me.

That's the way it's always been. Why would it change? Because some people are kicking up a fuss over nothing? PUHLEEZE...

Just don't sweat it Donnie. Ride the wave and it'll all be fine. It always has, right?

[Tied-Up]

I am still in strong support over banning all bon jovi threads.   

And silliness is ok, in my opinion.  It helps keep us sane, which some of us need.

/jarmo

exactly, thats why threads get locked..... granted its no where near as fast for el locko of the threads in the jungle... cause well its the jungle...... but personally ive bumped about 8 over the last couple months and 2 or 3 of tehm actually managed to get a few extra pages of posts into them..... You just tend to get tired of watching threads appear that are just different enough to warrent a new thread to ahve it mutate into the same old arguement of the last 3 different threads.... IMo of course


PS thx for the help the other day jarmo... frlt like a real tool screwing up th acct  lol guess some would have been happy

I think that having the bear minimum of rules just so that order is held, is a good way to go.  I love the fact that HTGTH is so easy going and 99% of things can be discussed without problems!  It makes it really good and the fact that there are some, good, rules makes it comfortable at the same time.

She gets beat up either way.
