I am going to say this and only this... sometimes people get excited, they say things that are outrageous... they are having fun. Now... the threadhijacking thing... I mean do you really think that there is a conspiracy to take over a thread when all you have to do is start a "NEW" thread??? No. More than likely people are just caught up in one conversation and see something new posted and jump all over it. I have seen everyone in here post stuff a little crazy.... I read a lot of it. That doesn't make me hate it here. Different days, different moods. Bashing people because they let loose every so often is just as bad as the "hyjacking" itself. i understand that. but when it goes to two or three pages , is it too much to ask that they go back and delete the hodgepodge? this is supposed to be a support forum (or it was at one time)who wants to post about things that are personal to them if a couple of posters are going to mock what is said and ridicule anything contrary to their limited understanding of the world? nobody is against fun. that's not the point. if you see a chance to take a poke in jest at someone, go for it. again, that's not at issue. that humor is what makes this forum, IMO, i would just like if you could keep it in the lower boards whenever possible and preferably in your own threads. ok... but if people do get crazy can't you go back to where you left off and repost it? Kinda like what we do in Get to know the person or Tea or Coffee. I mean, there are so many different personalities here. I engaged in the conversation that hyjacked... I never took a personal poke at anyone who wasn't there to defend themselves.

i understand that. but when it goes to two or three pages , is it too much to ask that they go back and delete the hodgepodge? Seconded. The 2, 3, 4 pages of small talk that go back and forth between 2 or 3 posters becomes unreadable and kills threads. If that's what you want to do, create your own thread. Why can't you just go into your profile and go back to your last post?

Because you want to read the entire thing and see what happened last... you know.. I am starting to realize that there is an entire group of you here for distance and irritation.

I'd say that some of us would like to occasionally have a discussion on a topic without there being a ton of filler in between on-topic posts. It's not that big of a deal.

If you don't want filler in... don't log off. I have to tear through all the pages just like everyone else.. you don't hear me crying about it.

I just did a re-read and I realized that Lumpy is hillarious, as always... and I was wrong to make that comment. Open mouth... insert foot. Sorry lumps... you know you are dope.
