I agree... some people start a new post everytime a thought pops into their head, regardless of whether they actually have anything to say or not smile

I think 4 is perfect. Limiting the total posts would only create a problem with folks seriously posting worthless stuff, lol...sometimes good threads come from the idea of another thread.

I just wish we had the option to delete a thread we started. But I do know what implications that has...

sigh

May he who is not guilty of pointless threads cast the first stone

That all said, of course the GD forum is a "general bullshit" forum really so we're pretty tolerant. Apart from stuff that just plain breaks the rules, the only other stuff I have a problem with are posts that leave no room for discussion whatsoever, or attention-seeking stuff ("I'm Leaving I hate you all!" etc).

that's why i have my own personal shit filter... anytime i think of something that i think is interesting and would make a good thread, i go to my wife...

"woman, quick, what are you listening to right now?" i ask...

"man," she resonds, "i'm listening to you ask me a dumb-ass question."

i'm slightly disappointed, but i have not relinquished hope...

"yo yo baby," i begin again, "your first anal."

"no no no! muthafucka," (yes, she can actually speak this emoticon) she says, "not tonight, not tomorrow night, won't be happening the night after that, and you can pretty much rule out all subsequent nights, as well"...

hrmph i have been shot down twice... most people would give up and just start a thread anyway, a pointless thread that is... but not i... my thread must be of the utmost importance... i retreat to the computer room... i can't think... i put on my thinking music: "dreams of fucking an R&B bitch" by biggie... when he gets to the part about chaka khan having a hairy nether region, it comes to me...

i walk over to her seductively... "yo girl, there's something on my mind that i just gotta tell you baby," i say in my smooth mac-daddy voice...

"yes," she raises an eyebrow with a look of intrigue...

"i just reached 1,000 posts... it's about damn time..."

hug "i'm proud of you babe," she says to me lovingly. "but you spend way too much time on that site."

woot!

and i have found it... a thread worth starting... the thread of threads (even if it wasn't overflowing with posts)...

nod yes, my friend... this is how it is done...

I usually use the 'hottest topics' (most recent) as my starting point, but most items seem to be 'general discussion', and crappy useless topics at that!

Do you think it would be better to remove/separate GD topics from the others in 'hottest topics'?
Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.
