when you start a thread...

Evilbrat, in your sigline, you spelled Metallica wrong. Also, the "I" needs to be capitalized.

Actually last night I did a test thread, to test the reaction to how people would take the word "stimulating" to be.

I had been talking on the telephone before hand to a Lit friend who had mentioned how I overly flirt around the boards and that people might get the idea that is who I am in RL, when I'm not really that flirty in RL.

So I used the word stimulation to try and judge what they thought I might mean..... If I meant stimulation of the mind or stimulation of the body.....

"Go on... you can do it.... Give me some stimulating conversation " was the thread, now on page four.......

Just reading that thread opening, what would you judge I was meaning?

I look at Literotica as one great big party. There are a hundred conversations taking place at the same time. You walk around with a drink in you hand, you listen to some conversations, nothing to add, you walk on. Some conversations you might want to jump into, add your 2 cents.

Sometimes you have had too much to drink and you start talking out of your ass (new threads that make no sense or hurt people).

Sometimes you just have something to say, or a question to ask. You just start talking. Others at the party may stop by to listen, and add their thoughts, or just stand silently and listen. Some of these converstations really take off and seem to last forever. Some die very quickly, and everyone walks off.

You also have your party crashers. Dick heads with nothing better to do, no friends, no life. They come to the party to start some shit. Here we call them trolls.

I do both.

I post replies to others threads.

I post my own stuff for a few reasons.

I am curious and want to know what other people think about things, I try to post some humorous things, I have questions or I want to say something.

I like to share my thoughts about stuff from artichokes to zebras with other people and see if they have anything to offer in return.

That is how I meet people with things in common.

I've bumped other peoples threads and even my own from time to time.

That's what makes the board go round.

I post a thread because I have a question, a comment on some topic, or a topic for discussion based on an article I read. I can go for a few weeks without starting any, and then could have 2 or 3 going at once. Depends on what is on my mind at the time. Copying someone else's thread? Why do that?

I don't really put much thought into it. I respond to posts. I make new threads.

It's a bulletin board. LOL
