I love lamp.


Do you really love the lamp, or are you just saying it because you saw it?

I've seen instances when people post a question, and it gets derailed or people don't make any post relevant to the OP's post. Basically what I'm saying, I'm getting mad with the lack of people's IQ and spam related content.

Doubt it but when the topic is derailment, that's what is going to happen.

So long as the discussion is worthwhile, does it really matter? Just because something is off topic doesn't mean it's not worthwhile. Discussions flow from subject to subject, and when there's nothing left to talk about the thread will die and fall off the front page.

If the OP really wants a question answering, they can re-ask it within the thread, or potentially reword it. I'm not sure why you're complaining except perhaps to show what a budding member of the community forum you are.

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

i have to agree with Sound, thought i can't say it happens everywhere. it seems as though it depends on who posts the OP and how much fun can be had with it. a known community member posts and you will probably notice a lot more contribution and on topic than when an unknown member posts the same topic. it also depends on the topic, for example if you post about the web cams or titles or bungies next game or update, basically topics that have a broad spectrum of possible opinions which in themselves are discussible, well than generally there is no problem but go on and post a topic like this or ask about something you've missed as an abscent member or just because you're new and you're right, you get mostly sarcastic non informative replyes.

as an example... there was a member not long ago that has lost/missmanaged hir/her recon helmet in Reach. you would think the community would welcome the new person and help him/her out right ? oh no that would be to easy oh no we can't have that O_O
instead he/she got... oh don't you know you can't post about recon or Bungie no longer manages Reach on in before lock or sucks for you, stuff like that. only one member had enough descency to point the new member in the right direction (to 343s site), though no one mentioned to the fella that if he/she can't solve it there, they can get it eventually just by playing as it unlocks eventually. not only did he/she get NO advice from the majority, no one really made any effort to keep the new person in OUR community.

in my opinion, Sound hasn't come back to this thead because no one really gave him/her a reason to, even though this IS quite a discussible topic. most of you just made fun
o_O

shame on you all*

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

That part could have easily been left out.

I remember a thread not long ago about attacking an individual's intellect when you disagree with them. Though you aren't disagreeing with one particular person, you still had a valid point until you threw that in there.

I guess sometimes you have to derail it in order to have a discussion? Maybe? I don't know...

If that happens to be the message I am receiving from this thread, then I am learning well indeed.

The unfortunate fact is that once you make a thread, you have handed it over to the community, and no longer have control over where the discussion goes.
