Our general forum is stuck...


Our general forum is stuck on personality differences and people. Haven't you noticed the shortage of conversational opportunities on topics concerning issues of the day and new ideas?

You also have to count all the people who won't post because of one thing or another...

Also old threads have an appeal which is missed by some.

I'm glad you managed 'Our', and not 'My' ... 🙂

Or maybe you were referring to yourself and VR? 😕

"Haven't you noticed the shortage of conversational opportunities on topics concerning issues of the day and new ideas?"

- These are generally found in debates, science, culture, sports and other forums introduced for those reasons.

The general forum is for general posting, not deep conversational or 'meaningful' content - but you know this by now, after 5 years, surely?

If you don't like the snips then don't make the quips... 😉

People who choose not to post have their own good reasons. Many read frequently without posting. Old threads die because of lack of interest.

Let it go, Mikey. You're urinating in your own soup.

Old threads die, because they are closed...

After 60 days of inactivity, anyway. After all, this is the General Forum, meant for odds and ends and not for serious discussions. Why would you expect otherwise?

Comparisons are odious. For whatever the reasons, people sem to continue to enjoy it. Let it be.
