MrMagpie Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Does the author of a thread determine whether you read it or not? For me it definitely does. For example if Mark starts a thread called "you've gotta hear this" or if Jack or Nathan ever start a thread I have to check it out because it is guaranteed to be filled with entertainment and little quips. And if its started by (generic coldplay song spelt wrong with an x,o,or luv) I will refuse to read it. DISCUSS> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Open-Politik Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Well if it was a thread from Briggins...:uhoh::P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MK Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 For me, sometimes. Besides the author, it depends on the title, how much bored I am and, when I have a first look, what are people talking about in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darlene_Ihnfsa Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 on your own theory then only people that appreciate you, will answer that thread briggs :uhoh. back on topic. i do check who the thread opener is first, sure, but what makes me more interested in reading or not reading a new thread is the thread title itself.

Black Dog Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 yes. and whether or not people are being total jackasses in the thread or only partway :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Grace Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 yeah, i base my decision on the title and what i associat it with in case it's rather awkward. if it's an awkward title, but a thread made by someone who usually posts serious stuff, i'll read it. if it's an awkward title, but made by some douchy member, i won't.

TechnicolorGreenEyes Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Why would you even want to like everyone? I agree with Briggins' point, I have ignored a lot of threads on many forums for that very reason, but there is the odd exception. Also, I'm honoured that I am in the golden circle of thread makers with Jack and Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeoir Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Well, these days i only check threads that are created by people i know/like. If i'm insanely bored i might check some other threads too but they're usually just full of shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
