Look at this judgmental *** dude lauding other forums. You're welcome - no, encouraged - to go and stay there if your attitude is gonna be "lol normies with their normie chats". You sound so arrogant and condescending that I'm amazed you can stand on your ivory throne and not realize just how you sound. Good riddance.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
The off-topic section can be replced by a chatbox since its always the same 5 guys talking to eachother on a public area.
Not saying its not fun, just how it looks.
Plus on general discussion or on the other sub-forums the modding is sometimes far too subjective to encourage proper discussions. Mods post an answer to the thread and then close it without room to reply or counter-argue them.
But I guess forums are less of a ****fest than they used to be at least.
What more do you expect from an online forum?
Your points are valid, but if you want more 'quality' threads with more discussion, what's stopping you, and anyone else, from making them?
Despite the fact that threads get derailed in this section rather quickly, if you come up with a good and interesting topic, it may just stick around.
Hmm.. I wonder which part of my post merit such rage fueled respond but I'm past that bait. You'll have to forgive me... I can't feel insulted.
It's really just disappointment.
Well, judging from your personal hobbies, I know you can't.
Players in general ? Read well, bro, I'm talking, once again, about "the bunch of no life jerks who spend nights playing the most addictive game ever and donate hundreds of dollars in pixels" (so good to say it :3), who reprents a particular category of players, but still a category from whom you can't expect much (my opinion). Don't confound "player" with "no life", there's a huge gap between the two.
That said, if people don't want to discuss about your favorit subjects, it's their business anyway, no matter if they're "simple minded" or not. Personally, I play WoW or come to this forum when I'm tired of working/studying, when I want some rest, and it feels good to do something less serious. You wanna talk about politics, science and this kind of stuff ? It's not a bad thing, but if you find yourself at the wrong place (not to say with the wrong people), then just go look somewhere else :'D
Why oblige people to follow you in your ideas ? You may be simply suggesting than obliging, but you really look like you don't (for me).
I don't know, I'll watch and tell you when I find out.
No, you aren't invited to watch the presence of friction.
Of course this all is up to people if they wish to take this route. As I've stated, I'm unsure if locking the thread will do any good. Besides it's most likely that a new mega thread will crop up.
I always used that threads whenever I had small things that urked me or small things that I was happy about that I didn't feel were worth making a thread for.
But I don't deny that there have been times where I just felt lazy so instead writing out a big thread I just threw down one cheap small post there and called it a day XD
The content of the thread doesn't have to be about hot button subjects like politics or religion. It can be things that comes up on your mind (Like amunini's thread about doctors)
You've made me seriously think, you're true in the essence I'm a shadow of my former self.
The reason I changed is simple. I became too buddy-buddy, making it personal and lost the edge I had.
How to get that back, who knows? Perhaps it's time to draw the curtain.

Baby please don't leave me.
