What makes you reply to a topic?

What makes you reply to a topic?

Is it the topic itself? Is it the person who started the topic? Is it for the posts already made in a thread? Do you prefer certain topics?

A combination of all the above i think.

Ar-Cunin · 12-20-2002, 05:21 AM

If I feel the need to comment on the subject.

Borvik · 12-20-2002, 06:29 AM

I almost forgot to say something to the subject myself

I mostly prefer the more humorous threads, which doesn't have to mean, that serious subjects couldn't be discussed in a humorous way (those would be my absolutely favoured ones

).
I'm not a friend of those really heavy discussions that also tend to heat up. I'm here to relax and to have a little bit of fun. So having a little chat with the people around here is really a great thing!

Yepp couldn´t have said it better myself.

I always read Arvon´t topics for instance, mostly jokes. And of course MagiK´s post since they´re often very funny etc. [img]smile.gif[/img] And Cloudy´s of course.

And I try to sneak in and give johnny a hug every now and then. *hugs johnny* [img]smile.gif[/img]

ahhhh! Borvik...so you are on IW as well as UFR.

Well, personally, I don't care for the heavy topics often, either. I've got enough stress in my life without adding to it here.

Mostly, I look at the titles first - does it seem interesting? Then, I also have certain ppls threads I will always read. Good friends I've made here and some, like Arvon, whom I know will always make me laugh.

Borvik · 12-20-2002, 08:14 AM

Hi DragonMage, I can't remember having met you at UFR (sorry, silly me) are you using the same nick there?

Edit: I had a closer look at your sig... Maybe you whacked me and scared the s... out of me ??

Yes...very observant of you, my dear.

sheer blind bastad pedantry, thats why.

(but dont quote me on that

)

I'm more inclined to visit the serious discussions and avoid the purely humorous ones. Also, I read the ones by my friends, and of course, the ones posted by the mods. Always, the ones by the BIG Z.

EDIT, to add, what the heck is UFR?
