    Default Time to stop this..

    Just out of interest why does Habbox still allow the ridiculous, no discussion threads in Discuss Anything?

    I mean one was made earlier today (albeit to prove how silly it is getting), to ask people how many RADIATORS people have in their house?

    I would like to point out that is probably more worthy of being called spam than the actual spam forum? A sub forum should be made with NO post count for these threads. I bet no one would post them anymore :rolleyes:

    that was a piss-take on exactly what you're talking about and if you haven't noticed those threads are popular regardless the question. some DO get moved to spam but the rest are doing no harm, take them out and what will be left to be posted in that section? it'll just die, there's nothing specific you're MEANT to talk about there. spam and discuss anything are different because of post count, they'll get moved there if it's just people posting one reply after another. normally you get one reply each in a discuss anything thread because they know they'll be told off for spamming so doubt it's anything to do with post count..
    anyway yeah they're fine, report them if you think they belong in spam (where they won't be replied to or taken seriously, at least in discuss anything a lot of the forum get involved)

    Popular for post count with most members - isn't there a rule saying you can't post if it doesn't help discussion or something lol

    Discuss anything always used to have some good threads in there. Most of the 'Do you'/'How many' used to be by Jake who did it for discussion (and knowing Jake post count ), but then people copied and it's slightly pointless now?

    I just don't personally thinking posting 'yeh i live in a £2 billion home' (I know that is exaggerated, although most people seemed to be bill gates in that thread)

    Just my opinion but you know.

    Jen, you're gonna do me out of a job here.

    What buttons has said is true really, Discuss Anything is a very broad topic and a lot of the topics in there are reasonably interesting to read through, the radiators thread was left because the thread actually recieved a positive response - proving to W00TZEH who made the thread to take the piss that these threads can generate discussion. A while ago people were moaning that discuss anything was too quiet, I guess there really is no pleasing some people.

    To be fair Oli I have never moaned about Discuss Anything being too quiet. If other's thinks it's fine then I won't moan, although I do think what used to be an interesting section has been ruined.

    Although I have just gone through the thread, and there's about 3 posts out of 50 odd which are 'on-topic' discussion. The others could all easily be off topic posts lol

    Anyway clearly some people don't agree that 'six in my house' is a crap discussion, oh well will just stay out of that forum I guess

    Do you mind asking who you are?

    If you have any issues with any posts then click the report post button, although I have had moderators watching that thread and scanned through it myself and there are no problems with it.

    I don't have time to report every post that offers no discussion (since in my opinion that would be every thread haha). But for who I am, just remember our little conversation not long ago Oli. I asked you to unban one of my previous account's too, but I forgot the password and email :L

    EDIT: Sorry the first sentence in my post looks quite forceful, I didn't mean for it to look that angry

    I don't remember every single person I speak to, a name would be nice. None of the other threads are reported for being too spam like and if they are they get moved to spam instantly by one of my moderators.
