I've seen many types of threads, some get ignored and forgotten, others are popular and are constantly bumped. How to I make a popular thread that stays on the first page for a really long time?

Haircut doesn't inspire snorts of derision, and judging by his less than rotund build, he clearly doesn't benefit from the affluent lifestyle common to those fortunate enough to live in the utopian people's democracy that is modern day North Korea.

Guess again...

Does bobo ever not make factual statements? It seemed like the appropriate answer to me.

I always considered bobofatt as one of the kindest, most patient people I've seen on these forums.

I still consider bobofatt a kind person, but it seems like he's overdosed on support tickets now :(

With some of the B.S. that's been spewing in the forum lately I can't say that I blame him for needing to vent a bit. Isn't it amazing the drama that can be had on a site that you can get free games from for doing little or nothing? I bet it sounded so simple when the idea was in its infancy. I feel for the staff and have much respect for their patience. After all, they are human too.

Patient? Most of the time, very much so. Wouldn't say I'm the kindest, though I watch what I say a lot more since become support staff. Even though I don't have to, you fuckers.

So, what do you think about COD: Skyrim coming to the XBox One? I'm getting my fillings removed next week and will try to sell them on the black market to afford this on launch day. I can't wait to FUS RO DAH myself some 13 yo campers.

Try riddles.

"I am so simple I can only point; yet I guide men all over the world"

and then the correct answer has to post his own riddle.

yes, but not this riddle, your own. only need 5 if they rhyme(rhyming riddles count double for the purpose of calculating the number needed for any mix of the 2(also lateral thinking puzzles and mind games count for 1.5. if they rhyme its 2.5, so you could live with as few as 4))

edit- you *will8 still die eventually of course, unless you find some solution to that outside of our arrangement

Create a thread on a controversial or thought provoking topic, add cats, add boobs, include a puzzle or giveaway, incentivize people to comment, post threads asking how to create a popular thread. ;)
