You shouldn't have deleted anything. Just pace yourself with topics.

I hate when people delete because there might be interesting conversations in some topic and they all go to hell. But then, it's their right to do so.

You can try to group ideas. Say you want to know how Virgos fare with Scorpios, Pisces or Cancers. Instead of opening 3 topics, you open one and call it "Virgos and water signs". Or something like that.

exactly, instigator!

it's what's going on.

no really, dial a bit on the topics. you're new so i get the excitement. hopefully in one year here you won't keep posting so many topics, which is something that firebunny never seemed to grasp.

we're a grumpy board, with patience wearing thin.

virg_goki, do try to remember we're not the control freak board after all (😛)

ok before I become the bad guy. I said superfluous topics. It's cool if you post a lot but having so many repetitive topics removes older topics which had golden content. It's all about content management in the forum.



well, to begin with..those older topics with golden content? they are way way way in the back. Haven't disappeared off the map since the last..7 days or however many this chick started posting one after another.

but if you have to choose between:

a)"Happy Chinese New Year"
"Closure and cutting off"
"What gives you away?"
"Pisceans"

vs

b) "Virgo called me one time today"
"Virgo called me two times"
"The chat I had with Virgo"
"Virgo called me and left a message"

I don't know, which irks you more? Because in my case the second one is the same shit over and over again. And it's been like that for close to 2 years as opposed to these 7 days.

Option 1 is a visual overload. Imagine seeing that picture all over. Besides, Option 2 got called out when that shit happened too. It's not about the content, but being reminded of a certain person's existence over and over and over and over and over and over.

^I don't have to imagine, I saw it all over with a lot of posters. Many just turn giddy/trollish the second they enter this site.

As far as option 2, it got called out way way later and never in the first week/month.

As far as person's existence? Well, that's life. Out of reach/control.

I don't like some topics either and I think I called them out in topics too. Well I am sure of that. I just never impose on anyone not to post/start topics. Would it be a preference of mine? Well yeah but they can do whatever they wish at the end of the day.

You know as much as some stuff is annoying all around, it still strikes me as controlling to silence it. And we don't have moderators which is the beauty of dxp.
