When half the threads on the first page are started by one person, something's up.

Yeah I know.. but I only do this once every few months, and the way I see it, I'm trying to allow you some choice as to "oh, that looks interesting" or "nah, not interested", before you open the thread.  Of course, then again, you can just scroll past parts you don't care for, however most people IMHO would just give up on the thread.


EDIT: OH, and also, the conversations on the threads can then be entirely relevant to the topic instead of all mixed up.

While we're at it, I found a sorta fun flash game:  http://cache.armorgames.com/files/games/sieger-6833.swf

I think I like the sound track better than the actual game though.  :lol: (IMO nice track!)

Hmm, yeah, the only problem now is the conversations generated based on the thread... Maybe I should just make a Bookmarks folder labeled "4 HLP" and post a new one every day or so that way it's not so overwhelming.  I'll edit the poll.

EDIT: done.

As long as you post a new reply with your interesting stuffs, it'll bump the topic so everyone sees it.  No need to fill half the front page of GD with inane clutter (moreso than it is already).

I think it looks like a bunch of image spam and a really good way to get me to catagorically stop reading threads that you create.

I'm not trying to offend or come across as snarky, but I've not seen anything of value in this batch of threads you've just posted.  It's just a bunch of internet memes.  I could stand it if they were all in one thread for me to ignore, but giving each one its own thread has really crapped up the GenDisc subforum.  The place looks, at least for the moment, like every other web forum that I visited once, never to return.

Pare it down to the cream of the crop; post it all in one thread, or just stop.  That's my vote.

IMO these should all go into one thread.
