1. At this point, I only recommend threads that are of the opinion that threads that state
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 10:12 AM by gristy
their displeasure with threads that ask to be recommended are ridiculous, and further, only when said threads ask to be recommended.

So, no, I will not be recommending your thread. :P

on edit: grammar

7. No joke, I see at least one a day.
I bet there are significantly more "rec this thread if you hate rec this thread" threads than actual "rec this thread if you ____" threads.

3. That's what polls are for... these "rec this thread" threads are annoying at best
Also, I never read any of them as they are devoid of content. They should be banned and either ocnverted to a poll or they ought to be locked and have all recs stripped.

4. I wish the Admin here would automatically disqualify a thread from the Greatest List
if it asks for Recommendations in it's subject line.

18. I agree - that should be a new rule - after all that's what polls are for
I don't see why they can't just use the poll system.
