Threads you avoid.

You ever see a thread, and sometimes just by the title you say to yourself FUCK THIS. Any specific threads you avoid, or do you sometimes choose to avoid threads based on other factors?

There are two I will, nine times out of ten, avoid at all costs. Debate threads on Religion and homosexuality. ESPECIALLY the ones that combine both topics. You can say what you want, but even with the best intentions the damned things always get ugly. There`s no winning, no changing anyone`s mind, so I`ve just stayed away since year one.

Then there are those threads that I find too late. Example, after 9/11 I came here about five hours later and found a thread on 9/11 with some five hundred posts. It was a sickening number. Because I have to read EVERY post, I was thinking about going through that thread when someone mentioned in GFChat (in those days it was an AIM chatroom) that CainEJW was being an absolute retard in that thread. That was enough for me. I never even saw the first post in that thread. The recent thread that made me feel this way was the one made after bobo temporarily shutdown Gamingforce. I just didn`t want to get started.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I understand what you`re saying, Denicalis. It just gets to the point where there`s not much new to talk about and everything seems the same. In the end you can leave those threads to people that haven`t been here that long. While some threads get recycled, the new people`s answers to those same threads always remain fresh. That`s why I pull some of those GF Classics out of the closet once in a while.

I completely avoid Political Palace too, come to think of it. The last time I posted there, steadily, was a good four years ago. The effort just isn`t worth it to me, everyone that frequents it seems too fucking serious or tainted with this goofy anger that sticks with them even when they post in the kitchen forum.

Haha, I know. I didn`t take anything personally. Don`t worry. If I had, you`d know because of the twenty some odd threads with your name in the title.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
