I understand your point of view on this matter and agree now that a forum is not a place for this type of chatter, but at the same time I looked at it as a necessary evil. Still to this day you cannot keep the the unwanted posting off of the other threads (this thread helped with that a little). There are those who come up with posts and even threads started that offer no thought or analysis that similarly waste people's time when read. ie What are you cooking? What are you drinking? What really Grinds your gears? What is your favorite hot sauce? The list goes on and on. Yet, because this one was the longest running it got all of the negative attention. My point is that I agree that this thread needs to die. However, everyone needs to stop pointing us out as the ones who need to do IM or something, because more than just Quke, Jsarno, and myself are guilty of meaningless banter on this site. I would appreciate if the finger pointing would stop.

My mood and attitude for this post is non aggressive nor angry but humble. This is not a rage or a rant, just observations.

Well, the difference really is that for all intents and purposes those other threads have a single topic of discussion as opposed to this Seinfeldian (thread about nothing) thread we've got going on here. It was a fun idea when it started, but it may have run its course.

Also, there are definitely other inane threads. "Here's What I'm Cooking Tonight" comes to mind. But just like other players have been accused of and found guilty of steroid use, its only Bonds that people seem to pay attention to. (Maybe not the best analogy, but anyway)

So let me get this straight.
You want to close a thread that a lot of people enjoy. A thread that is not the cause of any server issues according to Matty. A thread that is by far the longest and biggest, and imo the best thread on this site. All because the thread has no real subject???
To me, it's better to come here and "talk about anything" then it is to make the 567th I hate brunell thread. Or how about the fact that everyone says the same things on different threads? Or how about the fact that the never ending thread have never gotten to the point of name calling or people getting upset at one another, but any thread that schneed has been to, or here lately gtripp does? Most every thread you come across is someone calling someone else an idiot...but not here. That's what makes this the best thread.
Again, I say if you want to lock it, then so be it. The season will cause all of us to be on other threads...that's what we've been waiting for. But at least give a viable reason for locking it.
FYI- Sienfeld was one of the greatest sitcoms ever to grace TV...obviously people like talking about anything.
