I like your idea, Bob. Just keep one sticky thread for, just like you said, shout outs.. or to say hey to someone, whatever.

There's already enough wasted space and threads on this site, and those pointless 'popularity' ones just take up more space. One thread for all that kind of stuff should be sufficient. Good idea. I like. :)

I think it is a great idea. This should be a positive place, and I think this is a good way to start to make that transition away from the negativity.

awesome :)

I think it'll be an accepted idea.. i just want some feedback on it before it's done...

What would we call it?

"Shout-out" Thread is kinda lame... can't we come up with something like "High Toker's!" or "Shiva's Shout-outs!" ...

cmon' folks use those noodles you call brainboodles. :dance: :stoned:

i know you said i was bring negativity into it in the other thread, and i'll accept that and move on... i just wanted to take this time to say i bet 20 bucks it disappears in a week or no one posts on it in a week, just like most of the other post 'such and such' here threads, not trying to be negative, i just wanted to be the first to call it :thumbsup:

on an un-related note, i had/have a friend, that likes to dye his hair blonde for some reason, but when he does, it catches the light just perfect no matter where your standing and it looks like the sun coming up or some shit... i started calling him sunshine because of it lol... i woulda had everyone calling him that eventually, but he went to jail shortly after i came up wtih the name =/

If your asking for feedback...

I think it's a waste of space...this is what cannabisdotcomlounge is for...basically the same thing...imho

If people can't be civil in the lounge forum, then why should we open another forum?...

nothing personal, but that's how I feel about it. lw

Just continue to police the forums we have, and they can be made to be friendly on a more consistent basis.

I think its a great idea bob, less flaming and more positive respect towards other members. Any post thats negative should be deleted, it takes up space

i havent posted much recently but i must say i think some of you have serious paranoia
but im really stoned now

Skink

I think we all can assess who likes and dislikes one another,this conclusion is usually drawn in the first few encounters...

I never liked Shout outs and think it is a waste and probably "will" be ignored...

Policing the board in a manner all would like to be treated is probably the best approach IMHO...

i think it isnt so much as a complete "shout out" board, but more of a place that ppl can just go post positive things and not have to weed through the other stuff..

maybe we can call it "Sunshine and Positivity Section"..

just joking on the name, but you get my drift..nothing but a pure positive
area..

or maybe i am just really really stoned too.. :p

I certainly like the idea and understand the motivation behind it. I confess that I had a slight feeling of unease when I read the "Who do you admire" thread and yet I responded anyway. I apologize for having done that and contributed to what I can see now could be a not-so-constructive forum. Chalk one up to sleepiness!

great idea bob.. you hit the nail on the head with the too much flameing.. i mean yeah there are new people and everything asking questions everyday, but i dont see the need to flame them just because they are new and no any better.. take the time and introduce them to the boards and if they are asking a question that has already been awnsered, point them to the thread and let them be, i just cant stand people who have 4,000 post's and pick on people just because they think they are better because of their post count, yet half of them come from yelling at newbie's.i am not saying everysingle person that has 4,000 post's on here is like that, only a selected few, alot of very nice people on here that do take the time to help out new people, and thats how i learned, are by all the nice people who helped me out when i first arrived, and thats why this is basicly my second home!! but im loveing the shout-out idea bob, we need to bring more happyness to these boards and much less negitivity, i know this idea will be a good one!!! good luck with it!

I think what BobB and Bobby42 are saying is two totally different things.

Actually, I think that they're skipping over everyone else's conversation and just conversing between themselves.


So i posted this before (let's have a "shoutout" forum) :) :thumbsup:

Bob.

I guess it depends on if the owner's, of this site, want to make cannabis.com a world-wide "pop-in and chat" site, on three different levels.

We have the forums and the chat to use in order to contact another member. But, for better efficiency, a "shoutout" box, or something more noticeable to the member, could help the World get better connected.

actually i have that on another forum i go to, its a Karma thing i think, u can choose to Applaud or Smite someones post, its totally anonymous (except to maybe mods and admin etc.) but i think some immature kids would probably just go around smite-ing ppl for no reason... and it would probably end up a popularity thing with ppl making random threads about how much "good karma" they have, if u see what i mean.

Just my :twocents:

Peace :D

Never made it as a wise man. I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing. Tired of living like a blind man, I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling, and this is how you remind me of what i really am.

I mean i dunno, its the internet. people tend to speak they're mind more of the internet because of no worry about being embarrsed or being kicked the shit out of, also people can be fake and no one can pick up on it. In the end its just not the same, we don't talk about shit like this in real life, AND YOU KNOW IT. But who should give a shit if some stranger on the internet judges you? fuck, we all judge. Its human nature, we all love to feel like we're important, and the internet is a GREAT place for people to do that shit, thats why we have those people called internet geeks, but there are some pretty big fuckin blokes on here that i would deftinly not talk shit to, but of course people on the internet will give em shit because you can't feel the sense of another person, by typing this shit ican't feel the sense of feeling, that im talking to someone. Thats why we get people starting shit, or trying to become populare on a fucking distairpeice. But we're all looking for something, but we all want to come out on top. Humans are simple, us fuckers just over think the shit.

i agree :)

i mean we seem to forget, it's only the internet, whats important is the people u have around you no matter where u are :thumbsup:

All the things we think we want,

well i don't care who likes me or not. Fuck, my own mum acts like i don't even exsist, but don't get me wrong, i have plenty of friends who love the fuck out of me, and i love the FUCK out of them to. But i feel as i don't need anyone. Whats the point in making an effort in something which just ends up leaving u? i have trust issues, but can u fucking blame me? some people only care about themselves, and other people dont give a fuck, and other people just want to cause as much embarssement and torture to other people just to make themselves seem big. im one of those people that dos'nt give a shit. Go ahead and say wtf u want on the internet. Fuck, that rob guy thats quite well known on here has called my mum a slut and shit, i think.. i think he sed something like go find ur mum before she slits her wrist (well, i wud'nt really be suprised if she did. But she deaserves it) but if he sed that to me phyically and we was there, even if he is bigger and stronger than me (which he proberly is) i still wud cause him fucking pain. and thats because... ummm, ok, to much alcohol haha. and thats because humans like to cause pain, get as MUCH as they can, and fuck everyone else. We all want as much as we can get, we all just want to fucking live. Never gonna happen, tho. Human race is disgusting. Children staving to death, while the rich get richer and get more confident. Confidence is evil, because all we give a shit about is our selves, and if u say u care abotu someone elses life more than your own. BULLSHIT. Even if your married and think ur in love, its still not true. Never will be. As i said, all we want to do is live. We all want something but we don't know what the fuck it is we want.

ok i agreed with your earlier statement, but not what is highlighted here... simple fact is that although im not a father myself, i am an uncle and watch my nephew all the time (babysittin duties :D) and allthough yeah sometimes i get annoyed (cuz its moslty a last minute thing) i assure you i would sooner DIE than let anything bad happen to him, you ask what we all want... it's love bro, and that kinda love does exist dude, we just gotta be patient is all :)

goin off topic a bit there soz :o

no such thing as true love.. only love :D

and everyone always asks what love is... it's the fear of loss, that simple, i love the people around me cuz i don't want to lose them:D

I dont really find this idea to be very creative, but i think it should still be implemented..it could be fun, it could be successful. It could cause humanity to self destruct. We won't know until we try.

The more features, the better. Keep brainstorming. :thumbsup:
