Should I close the shower thread?

thegoodpotato · August 2014

Closing it means no one will be able to comment and it will sink off the page. No SS option. Yes or no.

ETA: majority will rule when I get into the store at 10am PST.

triplej9 · August 2014

YES! Jaz's dreams came true when it hit 10 pages and that is all we cared about

Now it's time for that shit to go.

I just noticed that I have 86 notifications for that thread alone! I need to catch up!!!

jaytee16 · August 2014

Why would you close it? I haven't caught up since last night, but I don't think threads should just be closed for the sake of stopping comments, that should only be done for a legitimate reason, IMO.

Ducktale · August 2014

In general I don't think threads should be closed except for some very specific/extreme reason. I don't see a reason why it should be closed.

jaztastic · August 2014

I voted no... that thread made my damn day! I went to bed a happy woman. It makes me smile to see it. lol

thegoodpotato · August 2014

I've consulted the mod board to see if it's "against the rules" to close it. If it's not, then majority will rule.

HeyStVincent · August 2014

NO. Gifs 4-eva.

Can you tell us what grounds you have for closing it? I have only seen threads closed when someone was banned, things got out of hand, personal info was being shared, etc. I have never seen a thread closed, "just 'cause" and I'm curious what prompted this vote to begin with.

i don't think its that bad. Annoying yes. But harmful no way. It kinda funny in fact. If it gets outta hand and someone starts getting BSC yeah. You don't wanna mess with sunday dinner. Chicken and potatoes go so good together.

thegoodpotato · August 2014

I've had multiple people asking for it to be closed. Apparently my other option is to sink it so it stops rising to the top.

I'm not going to make a judgement right now.

Irishcurls · August 2014

I'm all for letting it fall off the first page and petering out naturally.

thegoodpotato · August 2014

It DOES look like nature is taking it's course. Hopefully by the time I get back it'll be gone and I can leave it alone.

triplej9 · August 2014

I guess I am fine with it just fizzling out on its own. I only voted yes because I got excited about the thought of not having to see that shit anymore.

I really just want that asshole of a thread to go away - I don't care how it is done.

I have officially bumped enough threads to get it off the first page.

Hooray!

Now should I make a poll for if I should close the poll thread?

jaytee16 · August 2014

@ScrappyLika - HAI pretty lady!!!

aggiebug · August 2014

I think we should let that one sink and make this a gif party see how many pages we can get to today :P

I agree with Duck & Jaytee. I don't think annoying is a good enough reason to close a thread. I'm all for transparency, yo! I will try to stop commenting on it, as long as no one else posts anything stupid.

Sahara6971 · August 2014

Should I change the title? I am the OP
$:\$ ">

thegoodpotato · August 2014

I think changing the title now will only bump it up. Now that it's gone, let's all just hope to god that it stays that way.

MommyOfAMiracle · August 2014

It's taking EVERYTHING in me to not post on it...just because. :>

HerHighness · August 2014

If you close it i will get no more love tits on my hilarious gifs! C'mon im close to 3000

And there is that whole freedoms of speech thing and all. No rules were actually broken. Big girl panties must be worn!! When i dont wanna deal with a certain brand of drama i just force myself to quit reading it.

Irishcurls · August 2014

We can just tit you here HH!

thegoodpotato · August 2014

Hahahaha. It IS annoying to get all the notifications.....

lizjennings81 · August 2014

I can't wait until someone digs up that thread a year from now and gives a serious answer.

aggiebug · August 2014

I just wanted to notify you that someone posted in here @thegoodpotato‌ :-P

triplej9 · August 2014

Sahara6971 just to clarify from my earlier statements in this thread, I don't think you starting that thread was stupid! I think the thread just got out of hand and I got tired of people going cray cray about it!

jaytee16 · August 2014

CrazyCornball said:

OK people, you can turn your notifications off. FYI. It's under your settings. That way you don't have to be annoyed when you start a thread. I only get notifications if someone tags me or sends me a PM.

@CrazyCornball

Red flag for you! Mu-ha-ha!

tee18 · August 2014

@jaytee16 - I was scrolling on mobile and hit report on accident and then the app froze! I'm on the web version now, and don't see a flag. If It goes through for some reason when I restart the app, I'll fix it, but just FYI!

mommy5point0 · August 2014

I voted yes only because I was kinda embarrassed to have been the topic of a discussion in BSB about how ill mannered we are (as a BMB). It's just a snapshot and one thread out of many, and I'm normally thick skinned/IDGAF... Don't know why I had that reaction.

Musta been da hormones.

ETA : BWAHAHAHA

@tee18 - No worries, I don't see anything on my profile! Huh, now I'm kind of disappointed, you could have been my first

It's an acronym for Baby Showers Board; the title of the thread with a link back to the 2nd shower thread in here is called "am I going crazy?"

thegoodpotato · August 2014

@tee18 @jaytee16 nothing is showing up on the reported posts website. The report must not have gone through.

Oh, glad I went and read that.

I got into it w/ a few (well most) of the regulars on the 1st trimester board. Crunchy, it's easy to go "off your rocker" when you are being swarmed and insulted by a slew of people. I am mostly pleasant though, really I am. I guess I just don't mesh well with the first trimester ladies. Not everyone has to get along. Doesn't make them bad people.
