 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

| @Siggy and shame on you for not mentioning the rest of us that contributed . Adding more insult to injury I see @Hamistoso got mentioned twice. I'll be crying in a corner for the foreseeable future. |

Quote:Originally Posted by stanley_1883 Be careful what you wish for. This is not currently a very robust forum to begin with. It's already in danger of fading away from lethargy and lack of contribution. Adding yet another rule of "stay on topic" would just drain more energy from it. Better to be lively and off-topic than lacking in conversation. |

Quote:Originally Posted by stanley_1883 Conversation by committee? Blue Beetle, the movie, is a box ticker for those types who like to make movies that tick boxes. The movie going public are so desperate for anything organic and slightly original that they've ran Barbie up the flagpole and started to salute. Folks are tired of pre-shredded cheese. They're longing for something off the block... or have given up cheese altogether. |

| We're older and have talked about everything... more than once. That said, people like to talk about lack of contribution, but then don't contribute. It's like complaining that the church is low on money, but then ignoring the collection plate as it passes. Not to single out anyone in particularly. Conversation on a chat board isn't a self starter. |

Quote:Originally Posted by DrWatson I know, right? But I guess it restricts posting movie names, jokes, gun ownership debates, anywhere that there is disagreement about social issues. Even prognosticating about the economy and how it will affect the comic book market can get a thread locked. |

| Perhaps it's not the topic, but how the topic is discussed by those involved that gets the thread locked. But that couldn't be it. It has to be moderation, not the way someone conducts themselves. | ||
