Time to stop this..

I always try my best to provide interesting topics in that forum, but they always get swarmed away by the hordes of threads like the ones saurav posted. Heres a few I posted recently:
http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=655308
http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=654449
http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=653013
I think it's hard to come up with new disscusions in that forum as everything else has been covered as Oli said. I don't think you should get rid of these threads as they do sometimes add interesting topics, but come on, how many radiators do you have. That's just stupid.

Ahh sorry, posted it wrong. I Didnt mean saurav posts loads of threads, I meant the ones he posted in this thread as examples

If you do not like the topic then do not post in it, the one I made I tried to make more interesting with two subjects in one. Are we going to ban favourite food/drink threads aswell as they are one word reply threads? are we going to ban what sexuality are you threads because they are one word replys? the list is endless.

Anywayyyyy, Discuss Anything was known for interesting threads and discussions. Now its filled with one word answer threads which are just useless and as there are so many now, it means other people post more, thus the forum is filled with them

The following are from the first page of Discuss Anything:

These threads are just useless and I can make 100's of silly ones like these. The forum should be for proper and not crap like that.

You yourself posted in the bottom three threads you linked us to.

No one was on about the thread you made, you added to it, and made it more interesting. I was on about the first one, which is just a one word answer, I'm sure everyone else were on about that aswell. However, the topics in there are quite boring now, there are becoming less threads which you can have discusions in.

Edit- Ok i just saw that saurav included a link to your thread. However yours isn't a one word answer because of what you added to it.

Who's to say one word answers aren't constructive? Learning about someone's room colour could encourage conversation, or at least learn what another member's likes and/or dislikes are. But what Undertaker has done is useful as it is purely there to encourage good answers, perhaps encouraging this could work? If the threads aren't constructive, then you move them. It's quite simple really :P

eurgh dear lord i've just logged on and mentioning no names there's like 40 threads in there from one person asking questions

its boring

that is all

what's the problem seriously
even though people are taking the piss, there's more people who normally don't post much that are replying. idc if you find it boring i personally like seeing everyone's answers

I agree - I find some of the quite interesting to read

Yes and it clogs up the new posts and so is classed as spam - always has been. There is a rule about non-constructive threads, Gomme they are called pointless and I am sure they put some posters off.

Nail hit on the head with that comment and I have noticed recently that the numbers on the forum are actually dropping.

Not everyone will be interested in what the new posts section has to offer :P People who tend to use it tend to be interested in the whole forum, so it would be likely random crap would come up. If you like a specific thing, you go to the specific forum(s) for it. You could just remove the forum from the new posts section, but not all those threads are pointless or spam :/
