And the trend has been the exact same since the poll opened.

TA's like girls in chocolate pudding.
Most hate appreciation threads
A few love them
A few dont care.

Originally posted by Tygon I really don't care if they exist or, but I will say it's always nice to be recognized publicly for things that often get overlooked. I mean, you should always be appreciating people on an individual basis for things they do for you... but it's something different to show appreciation where everyone else can see. Honestly, I've learned a lot about certain people just from these threads... things are said that most would never know about that person's character.

recognized/appreciated for what is the point.

skill/talent/knowledge = fair enough. everybody likes to have their abilities recognized.. if the thread was for a dj and that's what people commented about, great!

being nice/smiling/saying nice things = honestly if you need to read an appreciation thread to find out these things about someone, you obviously hardly know them and your time would be better spent finding out yourself by making the effort to spend time getting to know them. and if you are avoiding getting to know them simply because you don't know if they'll be nice, again

Oh please, that's not my point. No one NEEDS threads to get to know people. I don't see most people on TA on a regular basis... so, it's pretty hard to get to know someone the way you're referring to except at the odd event you cross paths at. So what I'm saying is that I've learned some things about people I wouldn't have necessarily known without these threads (special things they did for someone, things they said... things referring directly to the character of a person that sometimes take years to discover about them). It was a side point... it was a positive point within the "douchebag" comments. Just take it for what it is without having to pick it apart with rediculous assumptions about my intentions towards getting to know people here... if you knew me, you'd know you're way off base. The entire purpose of Paradigm is to create a community of like-minded people... that's why we created it.

read posts at face value without over-analizing it in a negative light to try to make someone feel stupid...

click on TA

"appreciate this...."

"appreciate that....."

" do not appreciate this..."

[/close browser]

some of you are seriously anal

if you don't like the thread. don't click on it. don't like a poster, theres an ignore button. someone wants to tell others that so and so made a positve impact on their life..jesus christ. let them.

i can't say i like all of the threads here..and i think some of you really never contribute anything positive to the board. but tough luck

if no body likes the threads, the slip down to second page soon enough

live and let live

There are twice as many people who like Hip Hop, than those who like HOUSE. Does it make you feel retarded?

Why dont you just STFU, go have a good sex with your girl friend, smoke a cig and RELAX!?

Like seriously! Stop this shit! noone asks you to kiss our asses or read the threads you are not interested in!


STOP CRYING!

Seriously!

House is not just a groove. House is a feeling. And when u feel it, you will understand... house music gets you up and makes you high...
