Why don't I start lounge threads anymore?
Before I took a break from DU for a few months, I used to start lounge threads all the time. Now, I rarely do. Why is that?

Anyone else find themselves responding instead of starting threads a lot more than they once did?

2. lol
I forgot all about that thread. Did you have it saved? Great one. I got a lot more responses to my posts back then too. Turnover is fast in the lounge.

5. hmmm...
I'm not sure I've spammed the lounge before but I've seen it done.... :spank:

I don't think you get nearly as naughty as you used to in the lounge, or am I wrong about that? ...I don't. I guess I burned out on the DU flirting thing. You can still call me Uncle RA though. :)

It's weird, the more stupid the thread is, the more posts it gets. Right, Rev?

22. Yeah I went through that too. It was so superficial it was not fun.
I've resigned myself to thread surfing and alternating between my sardonic and serious comments; depending upon my mood.

29. My dear Radical Activist.......
Yeah, I'm with you.......

But I love the attention that a thread engenders......

So every now and then, like tonight for instance, I will start a thread...

I wonder what's going on?

It totally puzzles me........

There used to be a friendlier feeling in the Lounge.....

And that has mostly passed.....:cry:

And yes, the stupider my thread, the better it usually does!

Go figure!

:hi:
