How to know if a thread is worth opening? Use my 10% Rule- Replies should be at least 10% of Views...

the ball is in your court, what did you want to say?...
:ballcourt:

Damnit! I wish i woulda known about your rule before opening this dumbass thread!

does a blank reply count as an actual reply? I´ll have to check the rule book:
:php:

hi ac1749 i started a thread and it has the 10 per cent ratio but unfortunately most of the posts are mine guess i m sort of talking to myself over there

"So a decent thread with 100 views would show at least 10 replies, etc...
This should eliminate a lot of juvenile, jokester, prankster, poo thread time wasters from you glp surfing time."

I feel otherwise.

The good, thought provoking threads usually get no replies, while "poo thread time wasters" and Can We speak frankly type threads have pages and pages of shit taht would make your ehad explode it´s so stupid.

So if you only want to read crap on GLP, follow, Time Waster was it?, advise.

934, i am so humbled...please, pray tell, give a linky to your stinky thread, that i may piss upon it and bump you from the rear ass is your fondest wish:dubya:

We suggest paying attention to shoe size. There seems to be some kind of algorithmic correlation.

hi amethest- did you put amethest in the user name line... if you did you would get a lot more hits as you are quite popular and lots of us guys would love to bump you put a link here and we´ll rock your thread

dear ac1749 i posted as anonymous coward because i am just that plus the thread is about alzheimers sort of a downer so i figured keep a low profile if you know what i mean p s love your posts on the ot thread

well well its quantum host my all time least favorite alien...he is so clever...pretends he is a group of aliens replying from a hivemind server someplace west of orion...he used to post very unclever two worded posts in ALL CAPS and work in WE in all his replies...until he got so played out he could never pass the 10% rule and pretty much gave up...hey qh, isn´t elan calling you(all) over to her forum....yeah, thats it, they want you over there...hurry up guys...hmmmkay?

thanks amethest i was just reading about a simple alternative treatment for alzheimers which is supposed to at least halt the memory loss...i´ll dig it up and get back to you...it was in the latest Alternatives brochure from Dr. Williams...not a drug, it was a food or herb...i´ll post it for you tonight

dear ac1749 sometimes i get bumped off glp which is the reason for that silent post above but what i wanted to say is thank you for taking time to search for information to send me that is really nice of you

That´s so funny, that´s my general rule as well.

QH ..can´t help it can you?! {{smiling}}

I´d look at the time period and subject type and then consider Replies & Viewed numbers.

:dubya: I agree wit y´all, 10%, which is 1 in a hunnert

following your amazing rule.....i should not have opened this thread of yours because the post amount is not 10% of the views....so you
wasted my time right?


what people like you (yes i am arrogant) dont understand is that a majority of people will not accept the truth so they will ignore it, hence low post count.

its is not quantity but quality, to throw in a cliche thing.

If the thread has "poo" or "sex" in the Subject Line, then I´m all over it, baby.


:greendude:

O.K. guys, how in the world did you get those pictures in the reply boxes?

Your own thread fails that test.

except for the fact that respose is not determined by intelligence.

Lack of response is the evidence of ignorance and fear.

extra credit for those whom ignite reveloution without bloodshed.

peace is only worthwhile after enemy´s submit.

OH, did I say 10%?!!
I meant 5%! or half of that ..
2.5%! Yeah, that´s the ticket!!
