Poll question: Which of these is the classic ATA thread?
Edited on Sun Mar-27-05 11:07 AM by undisclosedlocation
My personal favorite was the "Why was my thread locked?" one where it turned out the person's thread had fallen to the archives.

1. I have seen at least three
ATA threads now that ask "how do I start a thread?"

They're my faves.

3. I love those.
Also the "why was my post deleted" and skinner quotes from the post and it's *incredibly* offensive.

9. Those always make me laugh as well.
It makes me wonder what manners/civility some members have.

4. My favorite ATA threads? Posts that suppose mods/admins LIVE ONLINE
Edited on Sun Mar-27-05 11:02 AM by mcscajun
and should be immediately available to respond to every question/issue within minutes.

"Hello, is anybody here?"
"Is anyone going to respond to this?"

Then some get nasty. Ugh.

10. Why was my post deleted for being a personal attack when
the post before it that attacked me was left up there?

11. A couple things...
I love reading ATA, especially those who seem to post a thread a day about how their threads (or their friends threads) were "shockingly" shut-down and/or take umbrage w/ 90 percent of what's posted on DU. And if Skinner doesn't take immediate action to rectify their concerns and/or silence those they disagree with, they are leaving forever.

Ugh.
