"Whose posts do you look for?"

Basically, who are the people that you'll read one of their topics, pretty much regardless of the topic? And, in reverse, whose are the topics you'll avoid?

Always read:

Meka - Funniest guy on here, IMHO
Grix - Always an interesting read
Goatboy - Very funny, and great to argue with.
Mr Nice Guy - When he used to post regularly, intriguing topics
Mr.Happy - Best film opinion to be found here (excluding Coen Brothers)
Mystique - Don't know what it is, but the majority of her postsmake me laugh. A lot. Maybe it's the mention of monkey a lot.

Never read:

There's not many I never read. I hardly ever read MoJoJoJo's, because if I reply I get into a senseless argument about how Mojoman thought I was the cause of WW2 or something and Dringo's don't interest me much. That's about it.

Your turn. Go flatter/annoy someone.

Usually I look for topic names, ones that are original and will entice me into the topic.

Although, I read almost all posts written by people I respect and know will entertain me. However, with the amount of topics Meka's posted today that's gonna be tough.

Mine. My memory is going.

I end up reading pretty much everything. The topics written by notables are always good to read.

Which of my posts dont intrest you much? The Notable Hunter Stories? The Nintendo praising sony bashing ones? or the future of gaming ones? all of them? ... it is so obvious that people do go for the name of the writer though. I always get the same people read my posts, ortega, Edgy, TBN, Sonic Rav and sometimes meka pops by... meanwhile i just click ona n intresting topic title as that is what i look for... meka normally write the posts im most keen on.

Its the same here, when I want to read a post, I will look down and see if there are any titles that catch my eye, if its got a boring title like, 'I find potatoes interesting' then I just won't bother reading it. But when I see something that looks interesting like, 'Tomatoes are the greatest fruit on the planet' then I click and read it. Basically, if you want readers, you need a catchy title.

I dont LOOK for Topic writers but am more interested in the topic title than the writer..

Is the fact that people look at the topic writer and not the title the reason nobody reads my topics???

I know i dont write many topics but please when i do can people PLEASE read them for the simple reason that when i do write a topic i put SOME effort into it.....


:-(

I read YH's also, because I find illiteracy amusing. :-)

I read mine.

Because they rock.

I read: craws, sliks, small frogs and Brews.

I close my eyes and stick a pin in the computer screen.
