I don't know if maybe it's just me, but the boards and the threads that have been posted have been a bit disappointing lately. No real new ideas, all just regurgitated, which is to be expected after awhile, but it seems no one is putting any effort into coming up with original topics anymore.
A lot of the polls, have been done over, and over, and over, and over again. How old are you? Where are you from? When is your birthday? What are your favorite munchies? And then there are the age old simple drug questions like What is DXM? Should I try mushrooms? Should I try acid? etc. Even then you have your rants, like I hate my parents, I hate the government, I hate life, that don't explain why they are so mad sometimes, or leave a lot of the details out.
I doubt this thread will change anything, but I'm hoping that maybe people will start putting a little more thought into their threads. I mean, pointless threads are inevitable, and some of them are pretty damn funny. But, not everyone has to post duplicates of the same ones.
If I could make suggestions I would just say:
Try and post threads that ask questions.
Story threads in which people post similar stories or situations are good because they get people to think and express themselves.
Threads that ask members to post artwork and recordings (musical) of themselves are good but only if people comment on what is left. Or later, that member may feel less inclined to post their work, because they feel people are ignoring it.
The one word story threads, the word association threads, etc. are good because they don't get boring as often.
Thanks for reading this if you did.
Peace, ":cool:

ps And no, this does not mean I'll be leaving the boards. As much as they're beginning to bore me I got nothing better to do.... :dance:
