I don’t like 'em, but I follow an easy solution: dont read 'em - its not too hard to avoid clicking on a thread 
Peace

True, but it is keeping some of the regulars away, and I am tired of wading through a plethera of adolescent teenagers clogging up the forum with “who loves me” polls.

Well put, and I do agree. I guess I tend to be non-confrontational with my solutions. 
Also not being a MOD I dont feel the need to look through such threads, as I am sure you do, just as anyone with your responsibility on this forum should.
However I must say that if members really do not enjoy such juvinille (man I wish I could spell) threads they should aviod giving them any response. I dont think such threads will continue without posts. I know that if I put up a “who loves me” thread that got no votes I’d be reluctant to do anything in a similar fashion in the future.
I agree that people should not do this to begin with, but as history has shown they will.
If I could prevent it I would, but the only means I have is to ignor them and not give them the credit of my response.
Peace
PS, Check my post in the Kirupa love poll :flower:
Also I would hope that a regular would not be shunned away by a few bad apples. JMHO
thanks Ryall…
I know you are not one for confrontation… I also saw your vote…
We just have a few bad apples we need to coral… I would love to see the regulars back in random…
It used to be fun here.

Well yeah, that is true, but see… but most of the people in the group of people that do this are the ones that feed the content of the useless trheads, its like a mini gang of sorts. They feed eachothers pointless posts… so there isn’t really a way to just say… well then don’t reply to it.
“mini gang of sorts” I agree.
There are a few bad apples to coral (goes without saying, but I agree)… I was just giving my advice to other “regular” members.
I cant lock posts, I cant edit them, but at least I dont have to support them. You’re right LOST it is something that is perpetuated by those involved - and no one can stop that. I was simply giving my opinion on what reg. members that agree with you should do. I guess that is all I am saying.

I agree… and I am also confident that it will be once again. I think it still is, but it requires way too much searching through the crap posted each and every day.
I think this forum is still fun… but then again, I have fun helping people, so I can have fun in any section!!! :beam:
how do you help people in a random fashion?? 
hee hee no response needed, just having some fun!
Peace
What about Mods locking spammed threat with a warning on the original post, thus creating some sort of hall of the d@mned (or banned =) )
