Hey Everyone,

I realize that some of us in here are new to the forum and some of us have been around for a while. I just wanted to point out as someone has already alluded to that we have no less than 4 different threads for the latest Anthony/Colin scene. I'm just a member like everyone else and everyone is free to do what they like in here. The "but" is that it's just not necessary to create a whole new thread just to share one post with everyone. The forum police are not going to write you a citation. But seriously... Four threads??

The more threads created on the same topic the less likely you are to get responses anyway. People don't have time to go through bunches of threads and comment in several different places. Of course it's always nicest if a scene in question has only one thread. It's convenient for everyone. And that's especially true for the models themselves who want to read the reviews. They know even less on how to navigate the board than we do.

There are some situations where somebody will start a thread with a title that raves about how great the model/scene was. If someone has a differing view then they might not want to post on that thread and then they start another thread. And of course the opposite is true too. If someone creates a thread with a title that pans the scene and/or the model(s), then someone who really likes the scene may not want to post on that thread. So speaking for myself only, the titles we give for a scene or a model ought to be rather generic. And then we can save the praise or critiques for the opening post.

It's also true that late at night after the new scene airs at midnight EST that sometimes people will start threads within minutes of each other (unaware that someone else is doing one simultaneously) and we accidentally end up with more than one. And that's just an accident. I tend to have more time than other people in here and would love to comment on the Colin/Anthony scene. But even I feel like throwing up my hands and not commenting on the scene because the responses are scattered all over the place.

Just my two cents. :2c:

I agree

I agree completely Tampa. It does make it difficult when you get up in the morning, and there are three threads on the same scene.

I think Scorpio consolidates them.......when he notices the problem, but poor Scorpio can't catch everything.:confused:

There are many threads here, that we keep adding new posts to, like "Bad Jokes," "Cute Boy Friday," "Ten Random Facts," and "Members Favorite Songs". These threads a lot of fun, and easy to follow and find, since related information is all there. I would hate to have to look for the joke I wanted to respond too, if they all had their own thread.:sign0068:

Just my added :2c:.
 
I agree, And the whole quiz thing is really stupid. Let's talk about the site.
 
I believe that Tampa is correct that a moderator's hand is sometime's needed to keep things orderly and tidy here.

And while I think the car quiz thread is great for those interested in classic cars, but perhaps they should all be in one thread, with each quiz numbered within the thread. As Ms. K has pointed out we have several threads on jokes, songs, cute boy Fridays, ten random facts, etc. that have lasted almost as long as the forum has been around, but the posts on those subjects are all on one thread for each subject.

Just my thoughts on this subject.

I disagree.

We have the "Membership Site Chat" to discuss the episodes and the model's.

The car quiz's are in the appropriate place for "General Chat" (not membership site related). We can check out the subjects listed, and then read and comment on the threads that interest us.

There is plenty of room for everyone to use this forum to express ourselves in our own way, on subjects that we care about.
 
I agree 100% with Tampa. I think I may be quilty of starting a thread when someone else was starting the same thread. If I watch a new eposide right after midnight, I will now wait until later to start a thread, making sure someone alse doesn't already have one there.

There will be no more Car Quiz posts. I have decided to post my own penis on this site. I have tried it this evening, but had some problems with it. Closing the scanner cover on it is a bit painful. But you guys that have tried this already know that. The thread will be called Tim's Penis Post. It will be organized and viewed by thousands.
 
Not long after I started posting, I started a thread on some episode right after it was put up at midnight est. The next day, I noticed my thread was gone and there was another thread on the same episode and my post from the thread I started was on that new thread. I didn't know whom to ask about this so I pm'ed Mark. He responded that he combined the two threads since they were on the same topic. Although my thread was put up earlier than the other, mine was subsumed in the other. And I had no problem with that. From that experience, I had presumed that Mark moderates the forum, although he obviously can't do it 24/7. But it seems to me whether it's Mark and/or Scorpio, whenever they see multiple threads on the same topic, they should combine them. No one's post would be lost, but just consolidated under one topical thread. The forum just gets too cluttered with so much duplication and what happens is that many of the duplicate threads end up with just the one post from the person who started the thread. There are a variety of reasons for any forum to have an adminstrator and keeping it in an orderly fashion as opposed to clutterred is surely one of them.

Can't wait Tim! LOL I'll be one of the thousands. :wink:

Love your sense of humor. And enjoy your quizzes. Not too good with cars, but liked seeing the pictures. It also exercises the memory muscles and I and I'm sure some of the other duffers on this site can use some exercise. Sometimes the site is dead anyway and it gives it a little life. So, feel free to continue the quizzes and keep your penis in it's proper place.:thumbup1:
 
Yes, I agree, these car quizes should all be one thread. Maybe Scorpio can combine them for us. I will keep this in mine if I do another series.

I think that's a great idea Tim! I don't think you stop your quizzes for all those who enjoy them. For those who are less interested they can just skip over the one thread. :001_smile:

I'm sure your penis is worthy of a thread all by itself. haha
 
Just wondering if it would be simpler for the site managers to establish a thread for the vids, at least, before, or at the same time, as the videos are released? ie: when Anthony/Colin is put up for viewing, then also open a thread "Anthony & Colin".

That way everyone would know to look for the thread, and only expect to find one on that particular video.
 
We try to keep everything tidy here so we do combine threads that are similar. It doesn't matter if you post first or anything we just combine whatever. I usually pick the thread title that captures my attention but sometimes the system combines them the wrong way.

We are working on new improvements where you can comment right on the page of a scene.

Btw I moved this thread away from new member introduction since it has nothing to do with that. :)

Thanks,
Mark

Your eagle eye caught my mistake, huh Mark? haha :blush:

I looked at the membership site chat, so I just moved up to the next one instead of the one at the very top. I'm not used to having a separate section for the new member introduction.

Thanks for fixing it. :001_smile:
 
DAMN! At this rate...........think how many threads someone smokin' hot like CHAD will have!:cheeerleader:

Yes, and thank god you are so good at multitasking or can you type with your toes while you masturbate?!:blush:
 
I agree 100% tampa. It is discouraging to have a bunch of threads about the same thing. Maybe we need some forum police lol
