    how comes when a member makes a game based topic it's mostly always considered stupid and pointless? the 'band name' thread is extremly pointless seeing as every band has prolly been repeated at least 10 times now. the 'song game' is also pointless. it serves no purpose at all. 'word association' is also another pointless thread, yet it's not closed. note: all of them were started by a staff member

    now just today a game based thread where you post a word and then the opposite and it was closed for being pointless. why is it members' game threads are closed but staff's aren't? isn't that a little biased? that is also not the first game thread by a member that was closed, there were others too.

    I closed that thread because it was an alternate version of word association, and it was pointless to me. You can do opposites in the word association thread.

    As for other threads that have been closed: It's because they are pointless. If we find a thread that's pointless, we'll close it.

    And just because you're off staff doesn't mean you have to stir stuff up. :)

    I think it's because we have enough of them... In my opinion, more of these games would become plain spamming.

    then shouldn't 'band name game' and the other pointless threads be closed? they're pointless, and i'm sure you've found them seeing as you started the thread.

    and i'm not stirring things up. this is a forum for feedback and i'm asking a question. it's what the forum is for.

    quit trying to be a nuisance. ;)

    if you had thought they were so pointless when you were a staff member, why didn't you close them and do your job when you had the opportunity? that was closed because of the pointlessness of duplication, not jsut plain pointlessness.

    Lets not talk about it, lets just say there were disagreements and he abused his last chance. We booted him off staff temporarily a few weeks ago, and now it's permanent.

    Bryan please, your being hypocritcal.

    MOST of your posts are in 'What song are you listening to?' which to me, is pretty much like any naming game spamming thread. I'm sorry you got kicked, if you don't care about your position, how are we supposed to care about you?

    :wth:
