I just like to voice my opinion and see how other people's damn opinions differ.

I'm here mostly for the charts and sales threads. I could care less about posting there to show how pleased i am with the numbers (nothing against those who do it). But i like some debates, and even have my favorite debaters on this forums.

I have comment in quite some threads though. It depends on the mood.

This site is also slow, so you could figure that not everybody is keen to open all the threads there is.

I personally post in any thread that I think deserves a snarky one line response, since that's normally what I do.

I don't have any idea what type of thread other people want to post in and this is why I have threads that have had several hundreds of responses and some that have struggled to make it to the second page. This a major reason why I am writing less and less threads...

The creator of the thread means absolutely nothing to me. The thread title can mean a lot in some instances but some topics are indeed done to death and are usually pretty shitty. I suppose my reasons for opening a thread probably vary mostly on my mood and at the end of the day, it's only a few minutes wasted if it's got nothing for you.
My routine when visiting the site is I hit my bookmarked MS forum then from there I hit the VGChartz tab at the top of the page, look that over for something new then scan the hot topics. Hot topics is the only thing that gets me to stray from posting exclusively in the MS forum. I also usually just read threads and don't post because a lot of the times what I would have posted has already been said or my natural reaction would be to say something offensive. I try to keep myself in check from being too rude because I see it as mostly a lose lose situation. Another thing that keeps me from posting is that I normally don't care to get into these drawn out exchanges with other posters, good or bad.


You do not check out Latest topics as well?


No sir, just hot topics and the MS forum.
