Fenner, you'd actually be another great candidate to win, hands down, except you don't complain about zombie threads either.

But you've definitely written some of the best, ORIGINAL threads (much more so than many of min!) that I've ever seen here... This one included.

Thanks Seoul! You write a lot of threads I enjoy too. I'm glad I didn't offend anyone by posting this thread. I would just like people to think before they react. I know I'm guilty of thinking, "again, that thread?" I don't say anything but I've thought it.

You know I do wonder if that man has ever found his missing rip?

This zombie is sad because we keep calling them zombie threads!

Let's be a little more sensitive, people!

Most times I look at the dates and check out the profile of the person who posted the thread. Sometimes I don't. I mean, if it's relevant and interesting, why not post a comment? Although some old threads need to be taken out of commission for good.

I've noticed a trend in certain threads that sometimes people think it's Okie dokie to be down right obnoxious or rude. You know it's really not.

1. Um, this topic has been talked about already.

OK if the person is new do we expect them to go back and look through every thread to make sure it wasn't already discussed?

The tipping thread, OK so the guy started one 4 years ago. 4 YEARS AGO. Seriously who went back and checked up on that?Who cares, can't you ignore it? If you don't want to comment don't, don't even open it. Just get over it already.

That's the only thing I've got, but I'm sure there are other things. Try to give people a break.
Yes, and that's all very true. And I absolutely agree that we need to be more welcoming of people, but there's something to be said for people not using the Search function though, when it's there, more visible than day itself. Seriously, it's not just a decoration.

Yes, and the thread where we're supposed to match each other up with someone.

Just ask them to join one of the Bible discussion forums. They will feel so welcome there... ;)

You know what, I used to be the first one to stick up for newbies who I felt were treated unfairly in here but after awhile I gave it up because I realized that doing so just makes ME the target because suddenly I am the one who is being insensitive to those who I think were insensitive and then it becomes a standoff between those who agree with me and those who think I was being overly critical.. so yea.

Hey, you can please all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time....... And those are pretty good odds.
