Boycott the "World's Fastest Thread to 100 Posts" Thread

yoopers · 2008-01-27, 06:23 PM

Threads like these (and like this one) have got to stop. Yes, yes, yes, it's Just Conversation and Free Speech and all that, but c'mon kids, give it a rest. There's just too many to keep up with, and just what are they contributing to meaningful Just Conversations? Maybe we should revisit the "Must Have Experience Before Posting" idea.

Most Replys was a rare fluke event. Just happened to catch on (turned out to be pretty good). But you're not going to repeat it, so please, have some consideration of us old weary threaders.

hear hear, brah!

Just glue this to the top of JC and all your problems will be solved.

I too am starting to get sick of all these threads that have absolutely no purpose whatsoever, other than to boost post counts.

1-wheeled-grape · 2008-01-27, 10:12 PM

i agree with that them threads are quite pointless

kington99 · 2008-01-27, 10:33 PM

oh the irony that this is getting more counts than the original. Maybe we should have a daily post quota.

You're right. At this time i would like to take a moment and apologize for my "What Do People Think of Me" thread. Yes, I am apologizing. I think that the people that have been here for a while and relize that this is a problem should simply treat these threads like spam and shun them.

Just my $.02

Pdougherty · 2008-01-28, 12:38 AM

yeah I concur. Stupid, pointless threads need to stop!

yoopers · 2008-01-28, 01:58 AM

Just to clarify, my thread here is no longer pointless...
