Request about the venting thread

[AJAY]

I would like to request that the Official Venting Thread no longer be tacked to the top of the Major League Fan Forum. I liked it better when it was a free-floating thread that would get bumped when someone needed to vent about something.

 

First of all, it gets your attention more when it gets bumped up. You know someone is angry and and really wants to vent about something when you see it pop up on your screen again. It had a much cooler effect that way.

 

Second, when something gets tacked to the top of the fan forum, I am guessing that people stop noticing it and reading it eventually. You just sort of get used to it being there and so you don't really think about it anymore.

 

By the way, can we re-name it to "The Official Venting Thread" instead of just "vent thread". I am still a traditionalist. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

I agree with this.

 

Another thing, is it normal to respond to people in the vent thread? Shouldn't we just vent and if people disagree they can start a thread about the stupid thing that was said? I really don't care either way, it just seems to get messy. That said, I'm probably guilty of thathttp://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

First two suggestions (un-pin, thread name) done, both wise moves.

 

As far as responding in the thread, hard to enforce...

Thanks Mass Haas !!

 

Any chance you could add that red angry face icon to the Official Vent Thread too? Once again, it adds to the effect of someone being furious.
