there seems to be too much of a trend to post replies to these threads but not actually read the responses that follow it.
kind of like a conversation where you don't actually listen to the other person, you simply wait for a break to speak yourself.
isn't this all meant to be a social catharsis, a shared communication? growing through thought?
should'nt we all try harder to not simply add shite for the sake of it but add to enlarge the conversational points (where relevant).
discuss please?

Ok, now that you're done, let me tell you what I did today.

haven't read all the posts here.. (let alone the first..)
but why another thread about 2advanced?

Airey, in all honesty I agree that many people don't participate in a conversation (religion/politics threads aside). Most people just through their opinion baggage on the conversation table and gesture at it wildly.

good response save.
a point is raised for conversation for semi-intelligent people and the best you can offer is a small nugget of pointlessness. for someone who's been a member for as long as you have, you don't offer much. have you ever actually offered anything to this site or is it a place to bolster you're ever decreasing self-opinion.
if someone joins today and helps out 20 people as well as starts 10 interesting threads do you label them a noob to discredit them while in 1.5 years you offer nothing. who's more useful?
one day you'll get over you're teen angst (probably at age 45) and wonder why you wasted all this time. why is it you hide behind a safe user name and an anonymous yahoo email address i wonder?
tres cool 'save', tres cool...

if the point of your thread is to 'intellectually' discuss the lack of a 'social catharsis' on NT - what do you honestly expect for responses?
I don't think we need a discussion on our 'mental growth' ... especially when your wording is actually a bit condescending - you'll get no play on here if you don't loosen up.
Also - there is plenty of playtime and plenty of serious conversation on here... it's nicely balanced.

oops... wrong thread
- airey0
point taken abizzyman. i didnt mean to be condescending at all, i was just raising something i had thought. obviously badly worded and misplaced. apologies.
in my defense the point wasnt to question the relevance of NT, i love this place. it was just that there are more and more long threads that have many responses that are obviously not made by someone that read anyone elses. it's not an intellectual point (i for one cannot make these, i'm no brain) but simply a questioning statement.

Pointless Thread Of The Year Award

whos round is it then?

I don't know I kind of agree... why is it that there are so many useless threads on here? I have had other usernames on here in the past so I am not a Noob but I am definitely bored as of late by the amount of quality material on NT. Who are all of these people with time to just sit and type one word responses to useless questions? I don't get it sometimes.
hmmmm...
disgruntled as of late.
