I noticed some newbie was complaining about pointless threads.... this isnt fucking CNN's forum of top news stories its a god damned titty viewing forum.
Not every thread is going to be a fucking epiphany. If a thread is worthy it will continue to have posts. If it not it will fall to the wayside and be at the end of the list.
And the very last thing I want are newbs who think a forum should be run a certain way clogging up every thread with " this is a stupid thread Waaa Waaa" You are adding to the "problem" by making comments like that anyway.
I have condensed threads that I thought were doubles in the past. If I see it again then i'll do it again. And I am open to any suggestions via PM for thread consolidation. But as far as thread redundance. No such thing on a forum like this. No need to comment as such.
Carry on

C Man, I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with you on this one.
Whilst I do not believe there should be restrictions on thread topics, there should be an unofficial rule to make sure wer arent doubling or even tripling up on thread topics, and that is my major gripe!
I mean there are atleast 3 "What you Hate" type topics, and without wanting to single people out... alot of threads that are created could judt be extensions on respective members 411 threads. I mean what were they created for? If i have some news like, im going on holiday, my dog had puppies, I was abducted by aliens last night, I'll throw it in my 411.
Now I am not some newbie trying to throw their eight around, I think I have paid my dues. I don't do this just to piss people off either. I just think if everyone is a little smarter about this we can ALL make it easier to navigate the boards. I mean it takes literally hours to go through all the threads because of the amount of doubling up there is.
Please tell me if I am wrong.

my dog had puppies
Ok obviously that one was me, and it was put in the main forum for any dog lovers I mean more people might have dogs in common then having a reason to visit my 411.
But allthough I can surely see what you are talking about on mulitple posts which the I Hate one as stated a hundred times was a joke to make a double post what are we allowed to talk about in SHOOT THE BREEZE, I mean where do the rules stop and begin. Can't talk about a Dog having pups cause that can go in your 411 well shit why talk about sports and so on either cause that can go in 411 as well, I mean in all actuality anyone starting a general topic in shoot the breeze can probably take it to the 411. We have a sex talk for sex related topics and top melons for the pics and stuff so if we start having rules on what topics are allowed in shoot the breeze who decides what is stupid and not stupid?? Or what have you.
Like I stated the Mulitple Posts I can see but anything else someone is wanting to "shoot the breeze about" I dont get why there is such a big problem.

It's probably obvious from my earlier posts that I'm with Bondi on this one. But, since pissing in the wind isn't my favorite passtime, I'm resigned to not see it change any time soon.

Ok so to look at this objectivley do you all also not see it as annoying to others when there might be 2 pages of simpson quotes going on in people's threads or turning the threads off topic as well??? Should we put rules on this as well?? DICLAIMER****** I do not have a problem with what I stated just now just trying to look this objectively since I also do not have a problem with the nonsense discussed in shoot the breeze.

Diane I honestly just pulled that example from the top of my head! haha I had no idea you had made such a thread! I understand what you are saying. Here is how I figure it. Things linking directly to you go in the 411 or as many ladies have a Top Melons Thread. Anything else you want to talk about, be it cars, alcoholic drinks, fav movies/songs etc go in shoot the Breeze as long as they arent repeated! Top melons and Sex Talk should be exactly what they say! Members 411's speaks for itself as does site help and information! I mean just today I saw Hardabs asking about his acount in shoot the breeze? I mean is the guy really that retarded?

Hey thats cool, if people have a problem with what i am doing than thy should also let me know... I am not above criticism here! Also you'll notice and crap I post be it a simpsons quote or a stupid pic attachment usually relates to what is being said at the time or the general direction of talk in the particular thread!

Or any off the wall topics that would fit there for people to shoot the shit about. I suppose I just dont see how you can have rules so much in that manner that would be fair for all members that contribute to the board. The duplicate ones pretty cut and try but as far as what constitutes shooting the breeze I dont think that one can be as black and white.

Well like I said I dont have a problem with it shit the other night I even joined in with some simpson quotes and Gnappy was proud. But seeing things objectively I could certainly see how many could get annoyed with that BUT that as well would be hard to put rules on telling people what they were and were not allowed to post about. When no one is being hurt. Anyway just my thoughts. :nahnah:

Please do not take this as a personal swipe against you because I do not think you are the problem at all!
