How About A Worlds Stupidest Threads Forum?

because ALL the bumped threads appear on the portal page, and home page and guest viewing page...

one cannot "avoid them" as suggested.

we can choosenot to click on a specific thread...

but since more folks are reading THIS thread

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f161...mus-31615.html

than any other on the forums right now...

and even after closing it...

clearly the desire to exchange ideas on social topics is strong....

sort of airstream after hours, or
airstreams once the aluminum, travel and good tastes...

are removed.

so, who'd like to see a...

wayofftopicreallystupidsexpoliticshatebigotrymilit arygodgames forum section...

that NEVER shows on the main portal or current thread page and not available to guests.

one would need to OPT IN for these topics and to read and play with others there...

and likely many 'guest readers' would sign up for airf, just for this...

but the moderator would need a biohazard suit and a dose of fluoroquinolones...

Drug-Resistant Gonorrhea Forces Treatment Change - Newsweek Health - MSNBC.com

or not...

it is interesting NONE of the other forums in the social knowledge network
have tackled this issue yet either...

so perhaps beta test it on the yoga or geeeeetarrrr forums...

cheers
2air'

perhaps the buddy/ignore feature could be expanded to include forum headings or specific threads?

There’s no such thing as a stupid thread here…

You’re right, 2air’…

And I really miss that as your tag line.
But I do enjoy your posts…
They inspire, educate, entertain and inform.

Happy Friday the 13th !

Man, I thought I was the creator of some weird threads (did anyone see Mr. Shorty?)

Well, anyway, you could set a bookmark in your browser to go to the "Forums" page as your start page, then you wouldn't have to look at such dumb titles as "Airforums Drinking Game" and "Weee, I GOT ONE!!!!". In fact, is this a setting you can set for yourself?

EDIT: When this posted, there was a banner ad for a "Fart Button". Now, that adds some class to this thread.
