What kind of threads not to make in the flood.
I'm going to make a list of different kinds of threads that we in the flood don't care to bother to look at. Feel free to post more ideas.
1. Vs. Threads. There have been about a billion of these. They aren't interesting. People get mad when you make them... so don't.
2. Why a certain game or gaming console is better than another. These always end up as flame fests. Especially Gears of War against Halo threads. Give it up, they are both good games.
3. Blogs. Everyone has made one of these (including me). Think carefully before you post a thread about yourself and make sure it's not a blog.
4. Dumb videos. Make sure the video you post is funny, interesting, intriguing, etc.
5. You got the Rings of Death and now you are pissed off at Microsoft threads. However, If you have questions about what to do when you get them, please make a topic... if you plan on just ranting about them... don't.
6.The, "Why did my thread get locked", thread. Don't post these... they just got locked again. If you wanna know why it got locked, use your common sense or PM a mod.
7. Halo game threads. Those don't belong in the off topic forums.
8. Rock Vs. Rap Threads. Whenever someone starts one these, people will argue, get angry and bash at each others throats.
9. Chuck Norris jokes. Sure, they can give you a chuckle, but face it. They are old, and we have all seen them.
10. Girl help threads. We won't help you. Don't trust videogame forums for girl help.
11. PS3 Threads. I'm not trying to say everyone at bungie.net hates PS3's but the majority seems to hate them. When you make a PS3 thread you will get flamed by fanboys.
12. Any thread dealing with teh stupidity of the people of America, or any other country. We've seen it a billion times, everyone knows how those work(you pick the responses that prove you right only to show), stop showing them to us.
13. Bar Fight threads, no matter how awesome they may be, always get locked.
14. User Above You threads. They get lots of replies and posts... but whats the point. The OP is just trying to make a thread with lots of replys.

I'm not doing this to be like a mod. I'm trying to make the flood a better place. I'm really tired of seeing vs. threads, then going to thread to watch a supposedly hilarious video. These are just suggestions.
-
I like posting blogs though :(...
-
I love threads where people insult each other.

Anything to do with Gears of War. No matter how unbiassed, factual, and interesting a topic may be, they ALWAYS turn into flame wars because some jackass decides to simply say "G0w ArE T3H SuX0RZ, Y0U 4rE TEh No0BZS4uCE!"

Never mention PS3. Ever. Don't act like you don't know why. [Edited on 08.09.2007 9:29 PM PDT]

After it peed on the carpet, he simply looked at it. Subsequently, it mutated, flew into the Gears universe, and proceeded to destroy their world. Marcus is such a noob. Can't even destroy mutated gerbil spawn. Okay, I've had my fun. I second that post about not mentioning the PS3. It's for the greater good. It's for the greater good.......... PLEASE.

Bar Fight threads, no matter how awesome they may be, always get locked.

Just letting you guys know that Mirko Crocop is going to destroy Minotauro Noguiera and tool him. And Randy Couture will beat Gonzaga. 1. Question. What is Cowardlyelite talking about? I should stay out of this. 2. Acceptance. Okay this fellow is weird, but I'm going to reply to him anyway because this topic needs a change. Who cares. It's another " Don't do this thread". What kind of horse maneur is this... 3. Anger. You cannot intterupt a thread topic. How dare CowardlySangheil. He even didn't put the i at the end of his name even though it doesn't fit in the Bnet membership ID creator. I'm going to reply to this guy and show him who wears the pants around these parts! 4. Leadership. I'm gonna take the situation in my hands. This topic is of piss poor quality. Bam. Topic is now about Castrol GTX. Drive hard.

There's a rather serious flaw here, unless they just so happen to sticky this, a new member will come the moment this is on page 2 and post a "darth vader vs. arbiter" poll. 2 2 2 2!
