Just like a phone call, to your Mom.
That's the way I see those, anyway(and appreciate them).

i agree . . . "trouble"
and "trouble" is my middle name. . .
ok Hey there Ethan -
i guess what most folks are saying is that it isn't a popularity contest . . . it's not who has the most posts wins kinda thing. . . everyone posts stuff that may not be interesting to everyone . . . the mad-lib thing i did didn't appeal to everyone . . . and they didn't participate . . .but that doesn't mean that the small amount of posts in that thread should be graded compared to the thread anticipating new fleetwood mac dates. . . thats obviously gonna generate huge interest but it doesn't mean the less visited threads are less valid to the people who are keeping up on those . . .
Do You Understand this? You are very enthusiastic and post quite regularly . . . if you value the number of posts or views on your threads then you should take the advice that many have offered you and try to contain alot of your stuff in one thread . . .(then that thread will garner all the views and posts and get you your double diamond status as opposed to the ten that you would have started individually. . . )
do you understand this point?
people suggest this to you but you seem to ignore that part of their posts . .. i am not trying to bash you man - just asking you point blank if you read these suggestions??
There is currently a way for everyone to rate threads for their own use and i feel it is unnecessary to assign a rating to a thread simply because it is popular (hats off to Homie again).
i was jokin with you in anothr thread that you should be careful or people will start to believe that you value the
number of threads/posts/views as opposed to the
quality of the posts . . .
well i don't think this thread will do anything to stop them from thinkin that
just my two cents
well hell -this was a long post so more like my 13 cents
