What are your favourite type of forum threads...

[Ammi]

..what do you most like to get involved in on TiBB..games/'fun threads'/serious debates/reality TV chat etc..?...

[smeagol]

interesting ones that go somewhere . what your favourite pot noodle jut doesn't do it for me lol

things should be cut down here not sure why there is so many sections

[Ammi]

..'cut down' in what way, Smeagol..?.

like general chat instead of chat games n chat
movies and tv instead of both.
celeb one and soap ones are hard to find. just seems a lot clicking back n forth all the time. simple is always best

..ahh, I see what you mean now...hmm, there is a good point in 'simplicity' but in this case I do also think it would make things more complicated though..

..general chat can include anything/human interest etc that people may not be sure or deem 'serious' enough to go in serious debates but it's also not exactly for chat and games etc..there are some interesting discussions/contributions on threads on there so to not have a post count for them would seem unfair...and with chat and games, you can post a gif/smiley etc to 'fun/silly' threads and make several 'spam' contributions so not having a post count for them seems ok as well...

.. 'celebrity gossip' type threads aren't really serious enough for SD either..they would just clog the section up and make it hard for members to find threads they're looking for..which are often older threads but there may have been an 'update' or afterthought to them...

...I think there are just too many movies/TV series to have one section for them all and together with vid games etc as well..that section would become too 'crowded' and complicated...

..so I think it's probably about as 'simple' now as is possible with the variety and all the reality TV sections as well...

[smeagol]

yea maybe. i dont see much being posted though on the celeb tv n film ones. or general interest, i think film and tv could easily be one section. and others posted elsewhere
i would post on the soap ones more but never see it lol

[Kizzy]

Serious debates and news.

Have you tried the 'New Posts' and 'New Non-BB Posts' links at the top of the page? They show you all updated threads since you last visited. There is also 'Today's Posts' under 'Quick Links'.

I do agree though that a few of the extra sections are not needed.

[King Gizzard]

Chat threads, specific music threads that are tailored to my taste-ish, football threads/the basketball thread

[Niamh.]

probably chat threads about TV programmes I watch

[Jesus.]

Threads that develop a life of their own. It's hard to pinpoint the type, but everyone has seen at least one of these threads appear.

Like the legendary Do you use Wet Wipes thread, you mean?

[Jesus.]

Don't think I've seen that one, but I can only imagine it was started by Marc. Threads that start off about one thing, but organically shift to being about something else, that other fm's come back and contribute to. It's hard to explain.

Threads that interest lots of different people, and individual debates break out in the threads, relating to the overall thing. Does that make any sense?

Do you mean threads that wander "off topic"?

[Lee.]

Yeah, I love threads that start off as something daft like "what's your fav pot noodle flavour?" But end up with some hilarious banter.

[Jesus.]

Do you mean threads that wander "off topic"?

Sort of. They don't go straight from toast to aliens. They go toast to bread, to toasters, to crumbs in toasters, to cleaning, to flannels, to using the toilet in space etc. Although they wander off topic, they do so because that's just what's supposed to happen.

[Brother Leon]

Can't beat a football thread before,during and after matches.

[Kazanne]

I like threads I can debate in,I find some of the threads a bit boring and pointless as in "What you having for tea" types,I also like fun threads like 'secret santa and stuff, and threads about TV/film and music are sometimes good,I find too many chat threads saying the same things really,and you cant beat a good old FIGHT thread,lol,I do find some threads over censored tbh.

'Why dont people in their 20s join social groups'

'Why dont people in their 20s join social groups'

..I didn't like that one, there wasn't enough opinions/replies...

..:love:..yeah, those are the best threads, when everyone joins in and it's all just nonsense, with a few random facts...

[Drew.]

Mainly the sports threads and TV threads but also threads that involve posting music, films, games and memories from the past.. there's always something that someone will post that i'd have completely forgotten about from when i was a child, i'v found so many films and songs on the forum that i'd never been able to find or remember by myself.

[Niamh.]

'Why dont people in their 20s join social groups'

:laugh2:

the age old question

[Glenn.]

You should know :idc:

[Niamh.]

How is that even an insult? :laugh:

..I didn't like that one, there wasn't enough opinions/replies...There are some great replies, but they generally end up as casualties of war!! :dance:

I don't know why don't you ask a dinosaur


I'm really tired

[MTVN]

General chat type threads are normally pretty good, the ones that ask interesting questions about stuff or peoples experiences without being too serious

Like has been said the sport threads are good too, especially the football one obviously

[Niamh.]

I don't know why don't you ask a dinosaur

Dinosaurs are extinct you silly boy and even if they weren't they can't talk anyway :idc:

[Lee.]

Barney can :hmph:

[Glenn.]

Barney can :hmph:

[2]

Well done Lee. We've got her

[Niamh.]

Barney can :hmph:

Do you think Barney would know why people in their 20's don't join social clubs? :amazed:

[fingers]

How can a serious thread end up as a discussion about animated talking dinosaurs?

[Lee.]

Dunno.. But I guarantee his favourite flavour of pit noodle is chicken and mushroom

He seems to be more interested in children under 10. That's all I'm saying.

[Glenn.]

My sister used to have a talking Barney when she was little.

I hear Yewtree nabbed him a while back.
