Maybe it's just me, but I remember that GD used to be filled with a lot more "meaningful" topics before. I don't know, maybe it was just simpler back in the day, but it just seems like GD has been flooded with those pointless opinion topics (for the past year ).

I don't mean to offend anyone, but I just feel that the sole purpose of these topics is for people to boost their post count and to get hot topics. Now, some of these topics are actually valid and help to create a sense of community within these boards: ones that involve the actual members talking about eachother, expressing gratitude, etc. However, most of these topics can hardly even be called that. I mean, they're more like polls with too many options to be allowed in the BZP Voting Booth. Now, I will not specify ANY topic so as not to put someone "on the spot". However, I don't think it's necessary to list them; it's quite obvious which topics I am referring to.

Again, I don't mean for this to come off as flaming or anything like that. I just want to see if anyone feels the same way I do (because I DON'T want to make a topic that's going to turn into a whole lot of spam). You wouldn't believe how frustrated I've become... I'm actually considering making a song about it (I know guitar ). One of 'em "I Want It That Way" parodies... lol.

I just want the boards to be a little cleaner and have a some more topics with a little more depth to them. I want topics that require more than a one-word answer.

Again, what do you guys think about this? I hope I'm not the only one! :blush:
