I had not noticed an "uproar", however, I can speak for myself. The reason I get upset over useless Thread after useless thread is because it seems wasteful. Additionally, it is often a vehicle for troublemakers to promote some kind of nonsense that tends to suck in the new people and those among us that simply have no self- control. This, eventually, leads to problems with fighting, insults, profanity-laced tirades and finally, Murray stepping in to close it down. I find that somewhat disparaging to our membership. I believe we are better than that. If you do not share that belief, so be it.
We have an abundance of Threads. I am almost willing to declare that every topic that can be discussed, has been discussed (to paraphrase the US Patent Office) at some point or in some other Thread. Sandwich Threads, Bikini Threads, Alcohol Threads, Pimple Cream Threads, Butt Wart Threads. The list goes on and on. I do not expect you or anyone else to feel compelled to agree with me. It is just my opinion. That is something else we have an abundance of around this place.
In the past, I have teased people about their spelling and grammar, admonished some for poor behavior, participated in ridiculous silliness, argued with some, discussed relevant issues and so on, but I have never, ever had the need to create a Thread. Anything I have wished to say has fit quite nicely into one of the hundreds we already have. In any event, I am certain the practice of creating Threads that are absolutely useless will continue. And I can assure you I will always complain about it. That is my right, too.

Ok, you dont like it. I get that. What I dont get is why is there always such an uproar whenever a thread that you or somebody else thinks is stupid appears.

Seriously guys, WTF? Craig wants to talk about sandwiches. Vail wants to talk about sandwiches, since she responded. Maybe someone else wants to talk about sandwiches too, we will see.
Its in the "Beyond the Realms of Priest" section, and even if it wasnt, you still wouldnt have to read or post in it. Why not just let people talk about what they want, without starting shit over it?
