Originally, I was gonna delete this thread and scold shackles, but he obviously won't listen. Instead, this thread is now about the discussion of birthday threads. Since people hate the birthday thread because they want to have their own special thread in a abandoned forum, I think that it would be best to make the threads, but after the day is done, the mods delete the useless thing. Discuss. Happy birthday to jewsuskhan btw, hope he will be in better health!

Des, I'm sorry, but the "Birthday Thread" is the most retarded idea I have ever seen. It's like you guys are trying to filter out spam and keep the chit-chat section from becoming over-crowded, but making a thread once or twice a week to wish someone a happy birthday isn't a gigantic inconvenience. I've seen forums with a hundred users online 24 hours a day, and they let people make birthday threads. I just think that the Birthday Thread is really unnecessary for the exact reasons that the mods think it is needed. This forum is small enough that we can make occasional threads for someone's birthday. Also, did you happen to save my first post? I want it back.

This forum isn't abandoned in the fact that nobody ever went here in the first place.
So, it's more like an empty or slow forum...

I agree with des on this one It's stupid to have a birthday thread for one person. "OH BUT OTHER FORUMS WITH LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE IT" SHACKLES IF OTHER FORUMS TOLD YOU TO LIGHT YOURSELF ON FIRE, WOULD YOU?

Yeah, I got the point that you really want birthday threads around shackles.
But to prevent from entering chit chat and seeing HAPPY BIRTHDAY *PERSON* everywhere (The second page is filled with it.) it be better to delete the threads after the few posts of "happy birthdays" and after the day is done.
I remember someone suggesting that birthday threads should be locked after birthdays and unlock it the next years date.
idk, I really don't want happy birthdays everywhere, because for a small forum, its everywhere on chit chat.

I understand both sides of the argument, but I'd have to say a birthday thread is best, since this board is so slow birthday threads pile up, not only because of low activity, but because we post on the same like 4 threads every day, therefore there will be 5 or 6 birthdays on the front page. Besides, it's not like birthday threads are writing with content, they're just empty happy birthday! Same messages reused, a bot could fill in the posts that are filled in a birthday thread. But does it really matter, I mean, who the fuck cares? Do whatever, it's not like empty threads are the end of the world, but neither is not being recognized by your own thread, just chill out. Be cool.

I was saying that if forums with 10 times the active users we have here can deal with individual birthday threads, then SPB isn't going to go into an unorganized shithole if we make birthday threads for people. It's not like anything else could really go in chit-chat since everything else is just categorized under "random thread".

The problem is that a lot of people don't get birthday threads made for them, they're too lazy unless they're an important person, so a quick and idle "Happy Birthday [name]" takes three seconds, does it really matter anyways? if you really want your own thread, make it for yourself, we just will only inform you of the pure conceded nature of the act.

Shackles, even with few people going around, SPB still gets into an unorganized shithole anyway with birthday threads.
Elementell is right about the forum being too slow to keep a bunch of threads around saying the same exact thing.

MVG's birthday is over and nobody wants to discuss anything.
Lock.
FYI, I hate all of you.
