tittles would then be huge :eek:

i think discussion is enough as praising, disliking something is generally a big part of a normal discussion

No, no.... You've changed every "Rider X Depreciation(appreciation) thread" to "Rider X discussion thread".

So since this thread is called "Appreciation/Depreciation Depreciation Thread" the only logical thing to do now is to rename it to "Appreciation/Depreciation Discussion Thread". That's what I meant :D
 
The objections are that there are too many negative comments? Or too many stupid comments? Or too many comments you (generally speaking) disagree with?

I also don't think we spend any more time in those threads than we do in others.

And again, if there are objectionable postings, report them to the mods! If you see objectionable postings and don't report them, then frankly I don't think you have any reason to complain about that or that no action is being taken.

So is this thread the only one left on the forum that's still depreciation and not discussion?

That Contador thread is ridiculous...

I guess you would have to expect same sort of reaction if all of the sudden you've told a devout Christian to "discuss" God

There is in fact still:
http://forum.cyclingnews.com/showthread.php?t=15240&page=28&highlight=depreciation
and
http://forum.cyclingnews.com/showthread.php?t=14555&page=167&highlight=depreciation
In truth I think the mods have had a busy day so give them time.

All I'm hearing is how threads are terrible but if you don't start your own great threads how will those bad threads (in your view) ever be circumvented? You need to voice your views and likes, nagging the forum how its terrible is just adding to the hate.

Start a thread on the subject matter you like or want discussed! I'm not saying not to or to go away, I want to read more positive, thought provoking, happy, joking, incitefull threads I keep hearing about.

Come on do something for the forum, its not about how bad everyone is but what you bring to it.

El C , I just don't get why I ended up being the villian for you to rant on and frankly I think you are a whole mess of contradictions.

I started a thread, I voiced my opinions---mainly being against hateful comments, negative views and slagging forum posters.
Are you seeing some parallels here yet??

The "I want to read more positive, bla bla..." seems to have left you momentarily while attacking my views in this thread.

In case you have been buried somewhere else I am not feeling the need to defend my contributions to this forum. To you especially.

Maybe you are not a great judge of joking and happy, thought provoking humour, you might ask in a thread if everyone is having as much fun as you.

Anyway, I sure touched a nerve here with a fairly banal comment compared to some..
Ciao. Enjoy your lightheartedness.

There are no more depreciation threads!:D

But there are 27 more appreciation threads, yet I dont think they all need altering until they resurface, if they ever do....:cool:

Did you go beezerk when you had to do it? Cause if you didn't -

a) You're not devout enough of a Christian
b) (more likely) my analogy sucks balls

I knew I might come off as anti-you or ragging on you but its really directed at everyone, was thinking about my post during my drive and thought I should of added a "to everyone". I do see your posts here and there and in the context that I stated, I am not really ragging but asking for more of your posts! Asking for more, asking for a drive (thread creation/posting) of the topic to the better of the forum.

I did or was taken by the thread to begin with as a re-iteration of what was already obviously happening and thought well that's not the direction (going to the negative) that's going to do anything but drive (feed) the negative. Again, this is aimed at anyone who wants it to change. If you (readers) want it to change then go for it.

Asside: To the derailure's and site spin offs member phishers, just buzz off, if your playground is so cool then posting here only means your site sucks and is worthless.

Asside II: To the mods that are doing the same as in I you should quit.
