Title: Thread of the week
Post by: Top Cat on 21 October 2008, 19:09
OK what about this, every now and then a classic comes along, lots of people involved or very informative
Each week the mods of each section could nominate a thread from there section to put in this new little place.
This would have the benefit of continuing a great thread that may have ran out of steam but more importantly it may make the various marks mix a little bit more. We all know that peeps dont often come out of there sections and i think this may help address this problem.
Surely everybody will have a quick look in this section once they know about it,

Here is just an example of the type of thread that may build bridges between the marks and also is funny and in formative.  :smiley:
Possibly a future classic

It was so funny some dude came on selling HID lights for MKV's only and a few people with other marks mentioned that they may be illeagal and he just went off it calling all other marks rust buckets and sheds.
So lots of people came on and completely stripped him to bits it was a classic shame you missed it. STU  :grin:

Just because it's funny to read doesn't mean it should stay. It makes the forum look bad if it gets too out of hand which that one did.

Yeah good idea. They have something similar on the Lotus forum, called 'Today's Hot Topic'.

Also got a 'member of the day' award thing - which could be pretty funny on here...

Hey I think this is a good idea, although perhaps 'topic of the week' instead of day, and the same with member?

Weekly might be easier?!

Member of the week gets a keyring or sticker or something?  :huh:

I concour fun, funny, funny is thread of the year. It has all the requirements nailed. A brilliant concept, a class put down by Toph, several people really laughing and classic comment from Jord followed by Bradley's Lenbian comment which sent me over the edge.
