marielapin Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 The only problem is, that whenever we make new threads, in about four hours they are on page five. Maybe its because we are boring, I don't know, but its extremely tiresome to hunt for the good threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marielapin Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I really don't have a problem with personal threads where people share personal experiences, information. In fact, I like those. But threads that consist almost entirely of LOLs, ROTFLOLs, and other such nonsense are annoying and a waste of my time. I still have dialup so I usually give up looking for the good threads cause it takes too long to flip through 8 to 10 pages of open mic. Cannot the teeney bopper pages be moved to the creepy aliens phorum? Isn't that what its for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Red Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 true. then you bump them, three hours later, it's gone again. i thought it was just me, that i stink or something. *sniffs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Red Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 what really bugs me is when i need help with something, i post a question, it gets lost in the shuffle because people don't go beyond page 1 to look at something (some of you, not all), i come back, and i can't even find my own thread! :irate: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So its not like I can start live five threads in a week to flood out all the junk threads. That is only adding to the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StColette Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I, myself, am guilty of posting in personal threads and making a few umm useless threads, but after seeing everyone complaining so much about them I stopped. As you can tell the personal threads have died away, and I've removed myself from Open Mic quite a bit and have dedicated myself to the Apologetics board. I apologize for my part in the spamming mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marielapin Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 We need to make a distinction by what we mean by a personal thread. The thread where Ash Wednesday telling about how her car died is a personal thread, but its the kind we want to read. Seeing pictures of Dani and Adrienne is a personal thread also, but again it has meat to it. Its hard to describe, but what we dislike are junk threads. No filling. Almost all threads are going to be somewhat personal in nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paladin D Posted August 23, 2004 Author Share Posted August 23, 2004 I believe there should be another section added for adults 20+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azriel Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 You guys are doing exactly what you need to in order to change Open Mic. Without dialogue, you can't make Open Mic better. Already as St Collette noted, personal threads have begun to die away. Forums, as well as, Phorums go in cycles. Which is why people post tons, and then seemingly dissappear. What is tremendous is the dedication all Phatmasser's have to the board. dUSty gave us a beautiful home ... its up to us to keep in running well and cleaned up.

Paladin D Posted August 23, 2004 Author Share Posted August 23, 2004 [quote name='Aloysius' date='Aug 23 2004, 01:05 PM'] i tried to warn everyone... anyway, go to "My Controls" i think it's under "Board Options" or somethin... it's possible.

Paladin D Posted August 23, 2004 Author Share Posted August 23, 2004 Ha, pretty cool... As [b]Al[/b] pointed out, go to [b]My Controls>Board Settings[/b]. Changed topics-per-page and posts-per-page to 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader_4 Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 No section for adults plus 20+ it makes us who are under feel really left out. For example anyone can actually post in under 20 or look at. i dunno i just dont like the feeling of having a section i cant see you could just maybe make a wrning that the Open Mic is not for useless threads.

[/quote] No no no, the 20+ section will be viewable and postable by everyone (like creepy aliens). The more [b]"private"[/b] discussions are in the NFP forum.
