It has come to my attention that quite literally over 80% of what is being posted within the Lounge are simply threads asking random users for a subjective answer towards a simple question such as "Do you have a pet?", "How fast is your internet?", and even, "How was your first time having sex?".
If anything, these threads provide nothing progressive in terms of conversation, and the most you could do is add perhaps 2 sentences if not 3, and even then you're just telling a story for an answer that could be less than 5 words long. I've seen so many interesting and thought-provoking threads in the Lounge but they're all drowned out by the worthless threads.
I say worthless because the original poster doesn't really care about every individual and subject answer from every user, and even the threads themselves are just a single sentence that indicate nothing will be done with this information except serve as a means of gaining a higher post count for literal sentences.
My idea; create a "Questionnaire" subforum, where any single-sentence questions can belong and therefore have the lounge become a ground for intellectual conversation. And yes, I know the Lounge itself doesn't have to be so serious, but it would be so much more enjoyable to log on here everyday and comment on some interesting and well-written thread, not another of 30 new threads that just ask me to explain something within a few sentences repeatedly.
I skimmed through your thread so if I don't get anything and whatnot, sorry. Aren't like 60% of the posts questions or just threads that would fit into that category regardless.
