What I want from a forum thread

General

Clock

I suspect it's what most people want. I click on a thread which doesn't have my name as last poster, hoping to find a discussion on a topic which interests ME and where I can add MY contribution, hopefully keeping the topic moving along and inspiring the next poster to do the same.

What I don't want is more of what I already saw in the last thread I looked at, which appeared to be on a totally different topic.

I'm always hopeful, that's why I'm still here, even though it seems others don't want the same as I do.

Lively conversation with other relaxed site members (who have the emotional maturity to accept differences in others) in threads, pieces of string, with a series of opinions and questions is nice to find in public forums in today's world. (imo)

I want a thread that doesn't get removed.

That sounds like an ad for Carnival Cruise Lines. 😛

And how long would you like your unmovable thread to live (before its round bubble head turns red)?

Former Georgia Governor Lester Maddox’ famous comment was that there was nothing wrong with his state’s prisons, they just needed a better class of prisoners.

Are you suggesting we need a better class of forum posters?

Actually, i want to be educated and entertained, something with intellectual content, but not so much that its brow beating, but not so little that its the equivalent of a tabloid newspaper, to my mind Bosse de Nage is the best, failing that, dancing girls in a spaghetti western will do.

I like seeing my name as the last poster because then I know that any posts lower than it on the list are ones I've already passed on.
