Just because its not on the first page doesn't mean that you can't post on it or that its a dead thread and if you post, you're unneccessarily bumping it!

I encourage everyone to read beyond just the first page and check out the cool and unique posts that may have quickly and easily been relegated to the second page.

I am starting the Promoters of Page Two Posts group :)

thanks to all my minions..erm, i mean all the supporters of posts beyond page 1.

do not be fooled by the false powers of page 1!

as noted in the original statement, "Just because its not on the first page doesn't mean that you can't post on it or that its a dead thread and if you post, you're unneccessarily bumping it!"

unneccessarily bumping a thread is putting a "bump" on a thread but not saying anything that contributes to its existence. Bumping a thread in a Reasonable Way is saying, "Hey, I'm going to look beyond page one and see some of the brilliant posts that got relegated to page 2, simply because people posted on so many threads there's no more room on page 1. Oh, look...here's a cool thread...i'm going to read this....ha ha ha ha ha! sushi's post was soooo funny!...I just have to respond" and then writing a meaningful, but not quite as funny post in response. By the power of the mechanics of the posting hierarchy of the sleuth message boards, voila! you have bumped it!

Everyone, follow the examples of my faithful minions...erm...i mean, uh, fellow supporters and diversify your reading beyond page 1, while posting in a Reasonable Way.

thank you,

Having just read Al's "Woof/Fiyah" post I feel totally confident in saying that this number bizness is wheely un-wheasonable.

Down with page 2! I declare this thread unworthy of it! I bump your silliness to page 1! Muwahahaha!

I think we're on page one again!:)

I can't believe I had to go to page FOUR to find this gem!

*Bump&Grind*

Well the reason you had to go to page four is cuz of these game threads....I mean, everything is getting bumped off in their place.... c'mon people, can't we contribute something more worthwhile (lol) for everyone? Lets show some originality!

PS would love to have a game board Ben if you were so inclined, so we could, you know, have a couple regular posts :)

Oct-13-2006 14:10

Defintately up for having a games board then everyone's kept happy. Theres some great threads out there if only we could see them :)

Oct-14-2006 17:59

Back to page one, as the games make a comeback....

Don't get me wrong, I like the games too, but is that ALL anyone can post anymore? I want to know the ppl I'm playing with, not just see one word or lies about the person who posted before you.....
