I suspect it's because deep down they know they're not bad enough to save the president daughter.

I didn't even mention it. Someone I didn't know / didn't roleplay with just took humbridge at it.

I told him "If you don't like it just ignore it".

That's my life philosophy it a nutshell you know.

In the aforementioned classic, it was just the President. President Ronnie.

Now let's go grab a burger.


"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

In the case of other sections of the forums (Comic Culture, PvP boards, etc) it really isn't a problem. At least, not as much as it has been within the Virtue sub-section.

I had two different story threads here that I tried to update regularly. Unfortunately, there isn't much to say short of "bump" posts (which are against the rules to my knowledge, thus I try to avoid them) so they would sink over a period of time. As much as I'd like to keep a thread fresh daily, it wouldn't really be possible to do so. If I didn't have a link to it handily available, I'd have to dig through a number of pages to find it. Same for a number of other threads that I'd read and then try to revisit later.
That is the thing though, if you have a thread that is likely to get bumped out then you still would have to favorite it or dig.

If as Mod8 said, we have more threads per day, you would still have to go digging for it.

The fact is that people are not posting as often or as much right now so you see the last x days rook threads sitting there. Of course I can scroll down and see Tuesday's thread, but it hasn't had a response in a couple of days so it is way down.

This has all happened before, and it will again.

Dig, yes. It's the amount of digging needed that I'm talking about. Adding another page or two or three to a search is what I don't care for. Due to the nature of Rookery threads against other threads, it isn't uncommon to see more of them the further back you go. Were they not there, that would be less time spent looking for another thread.

As I said in regards to the sub-sub forum idea, it could be one more click, but that one more click is what could stave off interest.

((How does this rep thing work anyway? I'm an old guy and reps don't mean that much at my age. But I'm wondering if rep here works like it did when I was in high school, where if you get a really, really bad rep do you get to screw the cheerleaders?))

Click on the # of posts in the main forum view. It shows how many times each person has posted in a given thread.

I know I've had more trouble than I'd like looking for a particular thread only to wade through dozens of others, half of which being Rookery threads, to find it. The Rookery is all well and good for what it is, but keep it to a thread. Daily threads are just excessive and unnecessary.
Every now and then I peek in. Sometimes I find a off-hand statement that I'd like to respond to. So I do.

Then I realize it's like spitting into the wind. Don't get me wrong, a breeze is a breeze, and they're always nice, even if you're Marilyn Monroe, and it's staged and coming from a vent below you, but if you're sensible, you quickly realize there are other places more worth your time.

Those town hall meetings for the health care program, nobody has to go to them if they don't want to. They're easy enough to ignore, and they're probably good for our form of democracy. So why do people go to them just to shout down other people for no reason?

I'm guilty.

I like reading the Rookery threads.

I have to know who is currently sick, becoming sick, or getting over being sick. That **** is important to me.
