    Default Jumping on the Bandwagon...

    Hey guys,

    I've noticed that the forums are starting to have a bandwagon effect. One "popular" member does something creative and gets many thanks out of it, so others begin to do the same. I realize that many of us don't notice this, myself included, but after I began to notice this, it gets annoying, no?

    Anyways, now that I'm typing this, I'm not quite sure why, but I guess it's to try and stop it.

    I mean, jokes do get old after being reused often, no?

    Anyways, just some things that went through my head. :P

    It indeed is very annoying .

    Anyways I think it's just for thanks. Some guy creates something "creative" and recieves thanks and some guys after him does the same thing obviously just to get thanks. It is annoying to see a "creative thread" and on the following days some replicas out of it.

    Like I was trapped in the past. Same threads go by me every single day.
