say all, isn't this topic a bit meaningless? (which if certain people had their way, would be illegal).

to add to the meaningless: but there’s one thing I know, the blues he sends to meet me won’t defeat me, it won’t be long till happiness steps up to greet me.

It's all a matter of perspective, as Dixon says. There's people who use the lounge to chat, if there's something going on I usually use "What's your thoughts" or "Say anything to get your posts up" that way, but just for the fun of talking with other people, not simply to get more posts. Obviously nobody would be a manager just with the posts of the Sound and vision or other threads, but I thought that was the point of the lounge: small talk about anything and everything. And the number of posts isn't that important, for example, I know Kosuke is a good fan and has shared a lot of things, including Witness or Yokohama videos, and he's got about 120 posts, that doesn't change my appreciation of him.

other people make 3 posts in a row, one with a smilie one saying 'yes' and anotherone with a lyric . i mean, i don't have any problem at ALL with posts like that ones, but if you take 200 posts in one day in that way, just puting lyrics, it's annoying.that's because they think that if they have more posts they will be listened, but i think people will listen to the ones who have intelligent posts, or at least something funny or interesting with opinions. Couldn't have said it better. it's too bad there are hardly any intelligent, funny, or interesting opinions anymore. Who gives a shit how many times people post. Stay out of the lounge then. good advice - probs should try and stay away altogether if it means not seeing people pad their post counts with smileys and one word replies. And it would be nice to not read pish threads about nothing anymore.

if anybody comes on this forum or any forum for meaningful conversation, i fear for their sanity. Why do you think that? The internet is an amazing tool for having conversations with people you would never normally meet. You can talk to anyone about anything online. I dont mean to sound like a prick but the internet is one of the greatest communication aids we've ever invented - it allows everyone's opinions and thoughts to be heard. Forums are a great place for having conversations about things that actually matter - and they're also a great place for talking bullshit and having a laugh! But it just seems like the lounge is now filled with non-stop bullshit that isnt even funny. Every thread is just random comments about nothing. Thats fine now and then - but you guys who spend hour after hour posting complete and utter nonsense..... its just so pointless and boring Most of what is said in the lounge could easily be said to a wall. Or maybe a particularly interesting spoon would like to have a conversation with some of you.... Dont progress to forks though - they're smarter than you think And before anyone mentions it - i'm well aware that im posting a pointless post in a completely pointless thread so im wasting my own time for no reason. But at least im expressing an opinion....which makes a change around here.... And while i'm on my high horse - dixonhill - you're a good guy but could you stop posting the damn lyrics please!!!!!!!! fuck me mate, if i have to read one more quote from an oasis song i'm gonna headbutt my monitor. Lyrics are amazing and i love reading them and writing them, and its great to see people posting lyrics as an expression of themselves, but for gods sake havent some of you heard of overkill?? lyrics, lyrics, smilies,lyrics lyrics..... just fuck off! Thankyou Tea and biscuits are available in the lobby

I think we all know which threads have "intelligent" conversation and which ones are very random. And yes, sometimes reading lyrics and lyrics is a bit stressing, but the person who posted it did it for some reason, or maybe just to express his/her feelings or thoughts at that moment. I don't really understand what's happening at the lounge these last days, if you want to have fun with it then post funny things or start an interesting conversation, but it's pointless to say "the lounge is meaningless. I wont post at the lounge cos I dont read anything funny" And most of all, I dont wanna say anybody what he or she should post, we all know the rules, if someone (or myself) feels like posting a smilie or a short answer, I won't say anything, since I don't want anybody to tell me what to say (except webby or the mods if I'm breaking the rules, obviously). The lounge is for everybody, so if you want to have interesting conversations just post what you think it's interesting, but don't bother other users please.

Fair enough - i totally agree that people should post what they want to and talk about what they want to. It just baffles me why people actually constantly post what they do in the lounge.... Some people's idea of interesting and funny is obviously far far far different from mine but thats me. each to their own. What bugs me is not the lack of 'intelligent' posts in the lounge (btw, im more looking for interesting conversation, rather than intelligent) but the fact that the entire lounge is now filled with random comments that actually stop real conversations taking place..... People's posts just get lost amongst hundreds of "ooo look at my post count' and ' '

you know what on second thought i don't give a shit if people just post pointless drivel. If that's what you people spending your time on then who am i to tell you what to do. I mean what does it matter to me if this place goes to shit - it's not my baby or my livelihood so what do i care. "Oh yeah Oasis rule" "my life sucks... just as i told you yesterday... and the day before... and i managed to make my girlfriend give lesbianism a try.." " ... but did i tell you oasis rule? ;D ;D" "763" "ha ha" "thanks" "i want to be a spaceman" "hahahaha that's the funniest thing i have ever heard - you are soooo funny" " ;D " "oh man i have so many bootlegs now that they're coming out of my ass" "hey i like the way you placed those smileys" "holy fuck i have 1200 posts - i rule bitches" wow you some of you 40 watts make shades necessary in candlelight. Now where the fuck is that thread about that guy opening a new forum. ANd i hear the soap-box is nice this time of year...

Well i use other forums and if all you do is go on reply to people uploads without giving anythin or posting in other parts of the site, then u are classed as a leecher, and in many are warned for not giving anythin to the site. And then possibly banned.
Just habit that you post i spose.
Am sure u never got 3000+ posts by uploading, you must of entered replies somewhere around this site.

I don't mind people posting "thank you"s. In fact it's nice to have some retribution after expending hours uploading and seing that your post has 50 views and 0 replies.

yeah it is ridiculous. It's just as ridiculous as those people who keep bringing it up over and over, making lame jokes about it. Hey it was just my opinion based on observation, and if you don't agree then hey what can i do ? i'm not gonna come to your houses and break your fingers for typing rubbish now am i? I think some of you take this a little to seriously - get outside and take some deep breaths. I'm not saying i'm some serious toft because if you look at most of my posts, they don't sound too intelligent themselves. But at the same time there is a right time and place for it.
I was simply making a suggestion about how to make this place better. It's websters forum and if he has no problem then what can i say.
and by sharing do you mean bootlegs and such? i didn't know that was a requirement of this place.
