nummy1 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 (edited) As the summer is upon us and the DCP Forums are getting into full swing. I beg of you all to THINK about what you want to discuss, outloud... if it sounds like something that at least 2 other people would be interested in, then start it. But if you are starting a forum JUST to start a forum, then you are wrong. Let us not have DIARRHEA of the mouth (fingers). Let us start the summer off right by having good topics. Such as, ex. "What does everyone think about BDs uniforms this year"... OR... "Did anyone hear that like that the Cadets did on the APD, what did you all think of it." , NOT, "I have a scientific calculation on who will place where in the finals.." (no offence to who started that one) If we take the time and think about what we write... then we will be more inclined to create intelligent conversation... Thanks Edited June 20, 2006 by nummy1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Lighten up, dude. Threads you may find annoying (i.e. the non-scientific prediction thingy) are fun for some other people. The mods are good at their jobs. Let them do it. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver_King Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 well i guess this is one of those topics that are just to start one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I find the scientific calculations and things interesting, and I usually read at least part of the posts. Also, I think the term you are looking for is thread, not forum. A forum is a collection of threads, a thread is a conversation. "Good Forum Topics" is a thread, "General DCI Corps Discussions" is a forum.

BlondeContra Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I think everyone's enjoying Loujae's "I have the prettiest contra section..." thread-it was all in good fun but I'm sorry if you're in any way offended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 (edited) Irony, party of one. For real. You deal with the good and the bad on a message board. I wish there wasn't a new amps thread every two weeks, but there is. Worthless threads disappear into the bowels of DCP pretty quickly, so don't worry about it.

JustABandMom Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 nummy1- I followed the links in your signature (A story of Drum Corps, Fanfare Column!!!) - those are two very fine pieces of writing! Great job. I'm glad you shared those thoughts and that I happened upon them. I look forward to someday reading more of the same. Kudos!
