  • Well, I guess we are the not-in scene kids that hang out in the bandroom for no particular reason that talk about things we are unhealthily fixed on.
  • I nudged a couple of them towards some of the
    megathreads, like the Jammies thread and PYRT. But I'm not sure how
    useful that'll be.


    You sent them to the most intimidating part of the forums?
  • intimidating my ass. The Visual Arts is the deadliest part fof this place.
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    The megathreads aren't really that intimidating :/
  • To people who like attention they are...Like me

    Ah.

    The Jammies thread is like, a personal megathread, though. It pretty much thrives on making everyone in it feeling like people are paying attention to it.
  • I remember when it was born in the IJBM. I was like "Whatever"

    The Trash Heap is my favorite megathread, personally. I know it started as a dumping ground for shitposts, but as Nornagest(!) noted earlier, it's basically just another "random conversation" megathread now.
  • Not for me. I kind of gave up on that thread due to how fast it goes and everyone pretends other people aren't there.

    or just me
  • Believe me Tno, I know how you feel.

    Yeah, we do have a tendency to ignore people in that thread sometimes. I'm pretty bad about it, myself, though I try not to ignore someone unless I just don't have anything to say to them. :(
  • Either way I ignorelisted the thread so I'm fine now. :>
  • I'm in a clique with myself. I exclude everyone!

    I just tend to participate in any topic that interests me. There are some posters that I enjoy but don't interact with much because of a difference in interests.
  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human
    I ignore the megathreads mostly.
  • Me Too.

    Does it count as a megathread if it's slow but nonetheless large? If not, Me Too even more so.
