I think it should stay, yes there is sometimes a lot of HARMLESS nonsense posting but there are some very interesting conversations that have occured, it is also where I and others have got to know other members better.

As Brunelleschi has described it on several occasions " a kinda screwed up very slow chat room where you do not feel obliged to reply"

I don't know what your problem is with it but there are plenty of nonsense threads started that get no or very few replies or others that degenerate into slagging matches, are they any more or less relevant? Should they be deleted?

I think that anyone who takes the time to let the fact that a single thread exists bother them this much needs to focus their attention...or aggression as the case may be in a more productive direction.

I think the thread should stay because the mods has not said anything about the thread being an issue (as stated above) and it serves as a great thread for the board memebrs to get to know each other, conversate, and have fun. So, until the mods, themselves says something bad about it, i'm voting No up there.

Who gives a ****?! Not directed at you - but who is that thread bothering and why are you concerned with bandwith? I'm sure if it was a problem, the administrator would have let us know!!

Let it stay, otherwise you'll beging seeing worthless post whoring at many good threads all over.

This is not a threat, just a constructive observation, we've had that kind of behavior in the past, just remember how JamE55, vraa, myself and some others used to post ***** all over the forum; right now it is all being contained at the Tired of whoring thread.

Besides it means no harm to other members, and we do have interesting and constructive posts there too.

My 2 cents.

Yes, I use it for things I feel I need to share but don't quite deserve their own thread



The TOW thread is a valuable asset to the MBWorld community. If it got deleted for some gay reason - I will take my antics elsewhere and say goodbye to my MBWorld friends!!

I have to disagree with the originator of this thread. The Tired of Whoring thread is probably the best way you can get your post count up and it is a brilliant way to get to know some of the other posters. I don't know about bandwith issues, because the mods haven't stated that being an issue, but let it stay!
