The Cavalier of this forum

Am I the only one un-impressed with the at times cavalier, lazy and perhaps even self-centered poster's in this forum?

Many a time when I log in, the words "Same topic, different subject title" pops in to my mind as I scroll down the page.

Is it an attempt to fluff-out the forum? To perhaps, make it look bigger and more important? A confusing myopic soup where quantity rules and repetitiveness is King?

I do think it's one of the better political forums out there over all, but for godsakes people, read down the page a bit before you start post #1,042 on the same topic!

I'm the only one that realizes that donnybascro is a hypocrite by making this thread while another one on the same (but on the positive angle of this) topic exists?

"Irony" and "Hypocrisy" don't mix.

A lot of people think that starting a new thread is a better way to make sure "their" ideas get addressed than simply posting in an existing thread, since, after all, one's own ideas are always more important than everybody else's.

Sadly they're usually right. If people took the time to understand and participate in longer discussions and just ignored redundant threads then eventually those people might get the point.

So why didn't you think of that before posting then????

English language lesson;

"Hypocrisy" would be if I posted a thread saying singularly how great the forum is. This thread is about repeat threads...deftly and cleverly using a metaphor from the thread titled; "The caliber of this Forum"...this equals "irony".

This thread is on a totally DIFFERENT topic, get it? LOL...but I must say, I didn't count on a continuation of the irony as I have to explain the obvious about the obvious....thanks for the laughs.
