Please save this thread at least twice so it becomes the best forum topic!!!!!!

Just the other day I was commenting to myself on how many amazing and new thread ideas are presented here, and I thought that I'd help out with that and keep the good flow going. So I whipped up a guide for you to use. It's easy! With this, you'll be making high-quality threads in no time.


STEP 1: Take any line here for your thread title.
What is your ___?
If you could change your ____....
Do you like the system for ____s?
How did you feel when you got your ___?
Do you pay attention to ___?
Do you judge people by ___?
What is your favorite ___?
Who are the top users based on ___?
Who has the coolest ___?
Why is this user's ___ the way it is?


STEP 2: Replace the blank from your title with any line here:
User title
Avatar
Signature
Join Date
Group
Username
Halo stats
Gamertag
Windows Live ID
Employment status at Bungie
Moderator status on Bungie.net



There you go! Your next thread just got even better and the discussion will be super rich.

There are a few other generic and AWESOME ideas outside this template, but remember, it's a scary world outside the template! If you want to be a really cool Exalted Legendary Member like me, this guide is the absolute best way to go! You should really print it out and tape it near your computer screen.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy and reply many times and all that.

You forgot a template for the 'How do you contribute to The Community?' threads.

The guide above is foolproof, although that type of thread is good for after you've used the guide for a while. If you aren't being given proper respect or you're going through an existential crisis due to using this guide too much (which, in my opinion, is not possible), that type of thread may solve the problem so that you can keep going back to the standard template.

I have posted this amazing guide on my refrigerator. Thank you.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

i c what you did there

  • 05.11.2012 8:08 AM PDT

You need to make a guide for the content of individual posts too.

Posting a meme and linking to an image of said meme is also a sure fire way to make a quality post.

Hi! I'm Synyster Ricz, and I've been using CAVX's thread-template for about four years now. Truthfully, I don't know where I would be without it! I was just a regular member making posts concerning the community in whole, Bungie-related activities and works, but now that I have CAVX's thread-template, I'm one cooool Exalted Legendary Member, and all the chicks dig me. If you use CAVX's thread template, maybe you can be like us!

Saving thread. Printing it out. Putting on fridge. Saving thread. Forwarding to my grandmother. Everybody needs to read this.

I find your list rather lacking because it does not represent the wealth of witty Bungie memes that are definitely not overused to death.

We need an amendment to mention quoting employees.

It's definitely a good idea, as are Bungie memes, but like any good guide thread maker, I'm going to forbid anyone from contributing to the thread, because it belongs to me!

Fine. I'm just going to have to make my own Posting Helpful Topics in the Community Forum Topic since you DID IT WRONG!

That is doubtful, friend. It's already being put to good use here. One thread has already shown up as an exact match of the template. It's just rewarding to know that I'm doing good work for the community.

So that's why "Edited Posts: Removing the Veil of Annotation" didn't catch on...

Absolutely right. I agree with Hylebos.

BTW, I drove past Hylebos Creek in Tacoma, WA yesterday. I was going to take a picture of it and post it here for no particular reason, but then I realized I was going 60 mph and the sign was already gone.
