...a good thread?

The most popular threads in terms of viewer response seem to be;

'person above threads

CS town threads

word association threads

(dare I say?) gilly's threads

hardluck story threads.

Argumentative religion/philosophy threads

Yet there are always complaints about the quality of the threads.

So...what is a "good" thread?








I wonder how many minutes it will take for this one to die :)

Aww thanks!

I peep into those occasionally but always feel as though I am joining the conversation late and no one has time to explain...even when I read from the beginning.wave hug

Well it really depends on my mood, sometimes I feel a little silly and just want to have a good laugh, other times I like something that makes me think and figure things out, get others opinions and try to expand my little brain. I can do the political and religious threads, but find it usually turns ugly and I prefer topics that have more significance in day to day life and the reason we're all here... relationships and all the ins and outs and what makes us tick as individuals.

I like to see a variety of threads when I log on even though I'll choose not to participate in many of them. We all have different interests after all. Not everybody is interested in politics, science or religion for example so the humorous threads too are good light relief.

Tonight, the most interesting thread for me was jbibiza's because it was about a personal online dating experience which surely holds interest for many members.

A 'good' thread IMO can often, but not always, be recognised by the title.

TI think the key word is variety not 'good'.

Thank you for your thread on your date.

It was interesting to see what people thought about why things did not 'click'. hug

I try not to judge a thread by its title (not always successfully).

I frequently see a thread in passing that I think 'oh, cool subject, I will check it out later' then when I get back on line it has vanished into past pages, I cannot recall the title or the poster.

why do so many threads of apparent substance just sink into oblivion?dunno

I do like all threads when they have a meaning ( even humour has a meaning .... in my World at least)

I really liked RayBay's threads .... professor but he is on a phylosophical jorney ... again ... somewere. professor sigh

You could start a motorcycle thread yourself I'm sure!

I like subtle humour but as I have a very literal mind I sometimes just miss the point.sigh

Ha ha yeah I would something ... "What do you need to know before you say "Yes" to be a biker's girlfriend." There is a lot behind it ... devil



Since i am an artist and a Gardener I basically able to find a humour everywere and in everything. My problem is I have too vivid imagination which makes me to see and to feel between the lines. It makes thing complicated ... for me and for others ... sometimes. Since they have no clue why I am laughing. sigh

Tbh.. I just like threads that get us thinking.. and talking.. I don't really care what the subject is.. though I prefer to actually be talking about SOMETHING.. than a load of blab about nothing in particular.
