Is there a thread that you dislike? You can discuss which ones you don't like here. If you had the power to remove a thread from existance (more than locking, it completely gone like it was never there) which one would it be?

I'd delete this thread. It'd be funny to see how people would react to losing thousands of posts. I'm sure several forumers here have gotten 1,000+ posts from that thread.

I have to say The 'Rant' Thread. Watching people give problems but no solutions get annoying. Some of the topics on there have just bitten the dust before they were resolved.

Terrible idea! There would probably be lots of flaming, spamming, and swearing from people who made lots of posts there.

I would delete a spam thread that had no replies.

Exactly why I would delete it. It would show their true colors.

No. It is not good to spam or to encourage spam. Trolling is also against the rules.

You should learn how to understand jokes.

Just because it's a joke doesn't mean you should do it

Posting a serious response to something that's a joke is redundant and it shows you have no sense of humor. Example: "Knock Knock." "Who's there" "banana." "bananas can't knock on doors." Get it? Get it? Take the seriousness to the WEPR, it's where it should be, rather than being serious everywhere when it's not necessary. Makes you look like a buzzkill that can't understand jokes. What Turtel said was obviously a joke, it doesn't mean that if someone were to delete the thread I posted someone would do it. Suggestions: Read the definition of "joke", learn how to joke around, learn what are jokes and what things deserve serious responses.

From the forum rules:

No "trolling" -- posting controversial (sometimes off-topic) messages with the intent of baiting other users to reply.

I know what a joke is and I know how to joke around. But what I'm saying is that sometimes jokes are better left unsaid.

well, this is all coming off as such a shock. I have to rethink everything my entire life now.

Read:

It's not like someone would post what Turtel said a page back if someone were to delete the thread, I would think people were "smart" enough not to post something like that.

They don't need any solutions. It's just a place to let off some steam.
