Is starting a NEW thread every time a guy jacks one out appropriate use of the main offshore forum? Would a better idea be to start one thread on the topic and keep it rolling, similar to the American Idol thread is? That way everyone isn't bogged down and other issues that folks are interested in don't get knocked down to the 2nd page because of all the multiple threads going on about one topic? Just one man's opinion, maybe I am wrong. I tried to suggest this to the thread starter and he responded in a very assholish manner. So I thought I would get your valued opinions. Thanks.
Let see, they have people in Louisiana living in tents since hurricane katrina. The price of gas is $3.00 per gallon. We have a war in the middle east. Daily threads asking people what shampoo do you prefer, and you are worried about this?

Certainly not worried about it, but it does make me mad when I politely offer a good suggestion to a guy and he turns into an immature asshole, instead of just saying no, I am going to keep starting a new thread every time he hits one as I think it is appropriate. After all, everyone has their favorite teams and favorite players, but this forum would suck bad if there was a post everytime anyone did anything that was someones favorite. There are genuine times this is appropriate, like Clip Joint boosting up his boys after a rare and unique playoff appearance, but starting one every time Brand had a double double would have been ridiculous.

Yep, it is stupid, although I think he may have been posting it as a joke as he agrees with us, not sure though. Either way, why not start one big running Pujols thread and see how many posts it can generate by the end of the year instead of another one every time. It is nonsense.
It would be a start if it at least could get posted in the Baseball forum instead of this one. No reason it needed to be in this one.
Granted, I have posted things in this forum about specific sports - like asking about Mel Kiper's draft picks. But that's because I figured people don't read the football forums a lot in the off season.
