I mean, topics for the GCD. I just can't ever seem to think of any, and when I do, I don't know...they just don't seem too well-received, lol. My last one was about Gaia and sin just to take sort of a reductio ad absurdum take on buying things here, but it got like, 2 or 3 pages. Aside from that, I just can't ever seem to think of anything, no matter how hard I try. :< Anyone else have this problem? Is it wrong to never make topics? lol.

No, that was a wonderful topic, that I didn't have time to post in XD

But I think the problem is look. The ones getting all the hits is the hit and runners. Whe you make a good topic these days people shy away because they can't give a quick answer and be done with it. They have to go to the one liners with spoons to get all the hits. Thats how topics reach 10 pages, and in my opinion, the well written and thought out ones get like, 3 pages. I mean, the one yesterday about "MAke up crap about NPCs" I was expecting to be a hit, and it got like, what? 1 1/2 pages?

I hate making topics because I can't ever gather up the right words gonk

I only made 2 last year after like...3 or 4 years of not making a GCD thread rofl
Problem is my first topic was a piece of crap; but the GCD took forever to notice NPC's were updated.
Second one PEOPLE THOUGHT I WAS TALKING ABOUT MYSELF nnnooooo
I was not trying to stroke my ego D:<

Only all the time. I only made one today cause I told someone I would. Actually, I think it may have been you, Sin. I don't remember. >|

But, I try to make one every month or so, especially when the GCD is all boring and blah, cause it bothers me to spend all day staring at Gaia and doing nothing at all.

Maybe we should all come up with great ideas together, and then all make topics to force discussion, and see who can get the longest topic. xD

it's kind of tough trying to think of something that hasn't been done to death before. rehashing old business garners scorn, well thought-out posts get 'tl;dr' stamped all over them and few replies. and you can just forget about trying to write something that appeals to everyone, because ... let's face it, it's the goddamn GCD. it's hard trying to find a happy medium :S

That's a good idea! We'll be sure to think of lots of ideas if it's more than just one person wracking his/her brain, lol.

Is that something you take into topic-making consideration? Keeping everyone happy? ;O

I just find that interesting as that's not something I think about when making a topic. xD

Yeah, it also didn't help that everyone was like, misinterpreting it and thinking I was some religious extremist, lol.

@Kuchi: Yeah, lol. I mean, maybe it was because I didn't spoonfeed them. I mean, God forbid the big boys and girls feed themselves, yeah? I just didn't because it was short enough to where I thought people could interpret it on their own, and some of them did, just not in the way I'd intended, lol.

Same, lol. I just think about, uh...making a topic that's better than most of the other threads that are out there at the time. I don't care that some people dislike my threads just as long as some people do. It does bother me when my threads don't at least pass 5 pages, though...we all want our threads to be well-received, right? :<

I know what you mean, Kala. I always feel a little put out when my topics die after like, two pages. I think my longest only made 10. xD Not counting my neglected quest thread.

@Kuchi: ...Did you just respond to yourself? xD

No, Kuchi didn't respond to himself. That was actually my reply that somehow made me him? xD I dunno, Gaia's been glitchy today. :<

Haha, yeah, my longest was like 12 pages and that was for the stupidest topic ever...like, I think it was, "So what's so great about Halloween on Gaia?" Because I honestly just didn't see why everyone loved it, lol. I think most of the events of Gaia are boring and tedious... *yawn* I'm getting bored just talking about them, lol. But yeah, go figure, haha.
