This is WHY I gave examples. Cause you clearly just don't get what I'm saying. Some ideas and opinions can be of different substance and have more points if discussion than others. That's just a fact, a widely recognized and accepted fact. And THAT is what he was pointing out as the problem, THAT is what determines if something is thread worthy. Can the OP on its own foster a worthwhile, long discussion? That's got nothing to do with interest. I'm not at all interested in Kingdom Hearts 3. But I would never say that a thread discussing where the game might be taking the series is un-thread worthy. Cause that is an idea, an opinion or set of opinions more than substantial enough to be worthy of a thread. And that's not an opinion, that's just a reality; the complexity of the opinion provides numerous points of discussion. The moderators set the ultimate threshold of course, but the standard is based on substance, not agreement or interest. And that's what he meant by all opopinions and opinion threads not being equal. Now stop quoting with your condescending snark and let this thread do whatever it is going to. |
Not going to bother replying to him anymore. Thanks though, because if you didn't jump in here, I probably would have been drawn into an even longer pointless conversation.
Knowing that a third party read and understand my posts means that the problem is not on my end, which means he either lacks reading comprehension, or simply wants to argue without caring what the other person says. That in turn means that I can simply ignore him. So, again, thanks for saving me some time and frustration. Cheers mate.
