I don't care that much about random speech, but it's more that the only people intersted in talking about hockey are probably me, goalieboy, BISH00, Nabby, sometimes montreal and other members who don't come on too often. And I'm the only one that makes hockey topics. I mean, I have friends I don't need cyber buddies. But this was cool for me because it's all goalies and you can get info on pad reviews and maybe news you wouldn't have known outside of here. I post on Random Speech, too, but I'm also trying to help others and give peeps info that they might not have known in threads. But there are select members who don't help or make threads, and for whoever is reading this thinking it might be them, it probably is. I'm just saying, let's get going on hockey _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xELq9tC-RkA puckstopper35 Hall of Fame Joined: 01 Mar 2008 Posts: 2864 Location: Sudbury, ON, CANADA!

My mistake. I go about half and half, if somebody says something, chances are that I'll reply, no matter what thread it's in _________________ GO HARD OR GO HOME.

I didn't mention any names, I said if whoever is reading this, and they think I'm talking about them, then they're part of the problem, most likely, anyways. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xELq9tC-RkA whaduzitmatr Hall of Fame Joined: 21 Sep 2007 Posts: 1933 Location: At home, in my Av's Jersey Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 6:12 pm    Post subject: Talking about hockey is fun, but if every single topic was about hockey this would get really boring. in an effort to make every thread about hockey we have about 100 threads on neck collars vs. danglers. We need the random speech to do what they say 'locker room talk' _________________ FutureSuperstar93 Hall of Fame Joined: 28 Jul 2007 Posts: 6115 Location: Maine Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 6:14 pm    Post subject: whaduzitmatr wrote: Talking about hockey is fun, but if every single topic was about hockey this would get really boring. in an effort to make every thread about hockey we have about 100 threads on neck collars vs. danglers. We need the random speech to do what they say 'locker room talk' But the problem is some people post like a 15:1 ratio on random speech and every other thread. If there was less Locker Room talk and more hockey talk, I wouldn't care. But the Locker Room gets most of the attention by the regulars and it should be the other way around And thank you for your thread today, puckstopper _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xELq9tC-RkA whaduzitmatr Hall of Fame Joined: 21 Sep 2007 Posts: 1933 Location: At home, in my Av's Jersey Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 6:17 pm    Post subject: I see there are a few or regulars that rarely visit the general discussion. like zannalee, nabby, danimal34 and others. so not all the regulars have a 15:1 post ratio in the random speech section. _________________ montreal961 Hall of Fame Joined: 09 Dec 2006 Posts: 6727 Location: CANADA Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 7:12 pm    Post subject: Everyone, please be quiet. From spetember 30th, to October 6th, there has been 7.5 pages added to random speech. I suggest you guys listen to some sad music and think about what you guys are doing. 7.5 pages a week? Come on you guys. NO thread does that. If this continues, i think it will be time for a break. _________________ auburn goalie Hall of Fame Joined: 21 Dec 2007 Posts: 2662 Location: Maine Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 8:15 pm    Post subject: Even though over half my posts are someone lost in General Descussion, I really agree with the mods here. I'm gonna start posting a new story everyday. _________________ FutureSuperstar93 Hall of Fame Joined: 28 Jul 2007 Posts: 6115 Location: Maine Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 9:59 pm    Post subject: This is why auburn is the first round draft pick. But just make sure the thread is of some interest to others. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xELq9tC-RkA auburn goalie Hall of Fame Joined: 21 Dec 2007 Posts: 2662 Location: Maine Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 10:34 pm    Post subject: I guess no one liked my first one _________________ FutureSuperstar93 Hall of Fame Joined: 28 Jul 2007 Posts: 6115 Location: Maine Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 10:40 pm    Post subject: I didn't even know what to say _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xELq9tC-RkA auburn goalie Hall of Fame Joined: 21 Dec 2007 Posts: 2662 Location: Maine Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 10:49 pm    Post subject: I fell for the trap, so I figured I'd see if you guys would think like I did _________________ puckstopper35 Hall of Fame Joined: 01 Mar 2008 Posts: 2864 Location: Sudbury, ON, CANADA!

I've actually been trying to post more hockey related threads, but I get distracted really easily _________________ GO HARD OR GO HOME. itechwarrior Minors Joined: 06 Nov 2008 Posts: 190 Location: Surrey, BC Posted: Wed Nov 12, 2008 2:24 am    Post subject: if you want to attract more people, try limiting the size of the attached pictures in sigs. it's quite annoying to see the same 640x480 picture of your helmet over and over and over in a thread. a lot of avid forum readers/posters such as myself dislike this. now i'm not saying get rid of pictures, or sigs, just limit the size to which they can be displayed. just my $0.02, take it for what it's worth. jase. _________________ puckstopper35 Hall of Fame Joined: 01 Mar 2008 Posts: 2864 Location: Sudbury, ON, CANADA!
