Jesus SAVES !!


 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Hey, you know what? This thread is giving me a clearer idea of what click bait really is. Why are we against it again?

I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Mostly because it's annoying and I feel like when a lot of people use the "new posts" search to find threads, they should be at least aware of what the thread is about before they click on it. Mobile usage for the site is continually growing, so that also potentially saves data for people. The other reason is just the principle of the thing; this is a discussion forum, people should be creating descriptive thread subjects rather than splitting the subject up.

Honestly having funny / random subjects isn't that much of a big deal to me, but purposefully splitting them up like this is just annoying:

Subject: Trump says he will investigate...
First line of post: ...voter fraud nationally.

Like, what's the point of splitting up the subject like that? It looks awful, is *definitely* clickbaity, and serves no actual purpose for a discussion.

I don't like when the title is split either for the same reasons you laid out, but after the conversation has developed a bit, I find myself torn, because I do enjoy a clever, fun, or witty title. Some of which rely on hiding it's meaning until the thread is opened to deliver it's punch; unfolding like a joke.

But hell, I've also been here long enough to trust the staff's discretion.
