to rain, or not to rain.
 
Vote here if we should or should not keep

The NEW it's raining thread.

Obviously if yes wins, it'll be a different name. We'll create a "Random Chit-Chat" sticky or something where you can just go and post a random comment that you want to say, but isn't worth starting a whole thread about. And if it does win, also know multiple posting in a row by the same person, or multiple people tag-teaming for a while, will be considered post whoring. lol, we'd be a bit cleaner about it than "it's raining", but it could help keep the general post-whoring mostly to only one thread.

Or if no wins we don't allow it at all. :)

looks like yes is winning...(for now :D)

EcianIce 04-17-2005 01:51 PM

i think it will win, just cause it's a fun way to pass the time reading over the 10-15 or so replies the topic will get each hour.

i nominate "i'm bored." for the topic title. chris's idea - i'm just agreeing.

I just leveled it out with my 'No'. There is really very little point in having a thread that will be a direct copy of the one on the site we ran away from... and besides it just promotes post-whoring.

ChrisWorrell 04-17-2005 03:07 PM

i think its a good idea, it should be called "Its Sunny." lol i dunno

Torque 04-17-2005 03:16 PM

Well, I could change it according to the season.

///Milk 04-17-2005 04:10 PM

keep it...its in that off topic area, so it's just another thing to talk about!

komodo 04-17-2005 06:34 PM

This is a pretty controversial thing... but I'm curious to see where this poll will go in the next day or two.

I can see it from both sides...

Addicted? 04-17-2005 06:38 PM

I say yeah! Why not? The weather is always topical.

spiff 04-18-2005 12:09 AM

i think that if we have a new one(i thought that No meant we change the name), so Vote me YES, but ithink the name should be:

"have a biscuit"
"grab a biscuit"
"buttery goodness"

one of those 3

since we are basically rebelling from other forums.. we can not have exactly the same things.. because that lacks imagination.. gotta have somthing different!

komodo 04-18-2005 09:31 AM

I think if we do it, we can't end every post with the same thing like "That is all."

The thread would have to be just pages of single posts without any closing. Just small posts about whatever.

*shrugs*

drz 04-18-2005 10:37 AM

I say we keep it. Not only would such thread absorb most post-whoring. I believe it would help in terms of community-building, of which I believe we are in favor.
