Speak for yourself.


LOL

ppl suck and ppl who like ppl suck even more :-P

Birthday threads are spam. It's funny to see so many actually game related threads and posts disappear in the spam section or public dump while birthday threads are allowed...

A valid point. You get dumped for responding to any other general thread with smilies, yet people in birthday threads are permitted to blather on to their heart's content. I swear that eighty percent of some people's contribution to the forum is through spamming every birthday thread.

I wasn't too bothered by birthday threads when they were occasional and barely noticeable amidst all of the actual conversation in general, but to login here and see that a majority of recent forum activity is page after page of simplistic sycophantic drivel - well, it's quite sad.



I agree, the forums are so much quieter than when i used to play, you definitely notice the bday threads more

a simple pm goes farther than a big birthday thread. I would rather see a welcome back thread than a spamed up kiss ass birthday thread

I disagree. Most people who post in the threads wouldn't even know if it is the individual's birthday unless they are close with the person.

Well, there's a thread or two already about it; along with the new/coming back section.
