Threads I Hate The Most

The absolute worst threads are the "I'm done on AZ and I'm never coming back" threads.
Wonder who would ever do such a thing....... Surely not anyone in this thread, right?

Yes, much better when all these great players/contributors just disappear altogether and THANK GOD WE STILL GET ALL THOSE INSIGHTFUL GOOGAN THREADS! Boy, I can't wait until I'm done reading Top 10 Googan Inventions!
 
Just Do It

On the contrary, I think we need about 30 more of them.

Hey, if they just want to go away I'm all for it. But posting a farewell thread is just a call for sympathy.

Its kinda like the difference between putting a gun in your mouth and pulling the trigger Vs. swallowing a few pills and dialing 911.

NPR is referring to NPR material in the pool forum. I don't care what happens in the actual NPR section.


"Politics" is a reference to issues that happen in poolworld. Please do a search for "IPT" if you need further clarification.


In that case we'll just add your original post to the list of annoying threads with misleading and vague sub-headings inside the first post of the thread:p :)

What's good for the GOOSE isn't always good for the GANDOR.;)

I think this is a googan but I'm not sure... it sure is happy though, or mad
 
Jude...

The threads I hate are the ones that quickly devolve into OFF-TOPIC stuff,
and that goes for so many threads on AZ.
It seems that there are so many completely worthless comments,
off topic and personal attacks.

The bottom line is that almost regardless of the thread title,
it is misleading because the content gets hijacked.

I've heard that Jude is a lights out shooter, and is a great guy in person, but, I also have the same "My way or the highway" feeling coming across from Jude on the AZ. Sorry Jude, no offense. Sometimes text does not come across the same way as the spoken word, and a lot of this may be unintentional.

1. Misleading/Incomplete Titles

Please, don't let us wait until we click on the thread to find out you have no worthy opinion. Let everyone know from the main-page from now on so we don't waste our time!


2. NPR

It's amazing how people can relate ANYTHING to pool. Seriously, we are days away from seeing a thread about septic tanks and 9ball. Amazingly, I searched for "septic tank" and got 6 hits. Before you submit, ask yourself, is this what I would discuss with the poolroom's best player?


3. Revisited Topics

Ugh. There are now 158 THREADS with "OB-1" in the title. Unless your thread is about OB-1 versus Godzilla (which I think has yet to be discussed), perhaps you might want to consider reviewing previous posts before starting an entirely new thread about your new love.


4. Player Obsessions

I never thought AZB would become a fan site. From my time on rsb to the Chalk Board and now azb, I always believed we were all pool players. Boy was I wrong. I thought forums would be great places to gain information. People like Wei have devoted an incredible amount of their time to provide us with amazing tools to use and youtube only enhances that experience yet every day there will undoubtedly be a new thread about one of ten players and how someone saw them on tv. I really don't care if Johnny Archer wears Fruit of the Looms. I really really really don't care.

5. Politics

Usually 95% of the people involved in these threads have no financial interest in them whatsoever yet they're always willing to contribute their two cents.



I really do enjoy questions about rules and unusual shot scenarios and amazingly, many of the best contributors of late are relatively new members. I hope members like Klockdoc, uwate, azbluemach1 and a plethora of others continue to contribute to play-related threads. I may not always agree with what you have to say but I'm very glad we're actually talking about pool.


Sigh. I'm done venting.

What turns me off more than anything is people with negative attitudes who are always looking for something to complain about.
 
I like ole Jude.
But I do like to inject my little humor into a lot of threads.

Hell........no one here should be takin my advice anyway.
I need at least the 7 from the worst player here.
