To be fed up of the Ask me anything threads

Seriously can we get rid of these into a topic that doesn't appear in Active convos?

There has already been a hate thread for these - Can we get rid of all these hate threads!

Oddcat · 01/07/2018 07:59

I agree . It looks like we're also going to get loads of ' I'm sick of ask me anything ' threads Grin

Yokatsu · 01/07/2018 08:05

Apologies! Perhaps we could put the hate threads in the same topic!

YY I am getting more fed up by the threads moaning about AMA threads than the actual AMA threads now.Grin

IHeartKingThistle · 01/07/2018 08:09

I think they're brilliant.

fantasmasgoria1 · 01/07/2018 08:09

I like the genuine ones but some have put up daft ones to be silly!

Danceintherain2018 · 01/07/2018 08:10

I love them. YABU.

howfaralong · 01/07/2018 08:19

Love them. Hate the moaning threads. Different strokes...

Yokatsu · 01/07/2018 08:19

I do think many are just an exercise in creative writing.

I tend to doubt the credentials of the OPs I'm afraid. I liked the stripper one but the others - well I'm not that interested. Seems a fad at present, soon it will hopefully pass.

WaggyMama · 01/07/2018 08:53

I hate the WAG one, but it's not a site just for me so I live with them.

9amTrain · 01/07/2018 09:52

Yanbu. Can't problem find other ways to seek attention and jump on bandwagons?*

*Doesn't include all the threads

Jozxyqk · 01/07/2018 09:53

I agree. But, I just hide the silly ones. Some of the serious ones are quite interesting.

SoupDragon · 01/07/2018 09:55

This is why I think there should be a separate topic for them. Some of the sensible ones are interesting and it would be easier to find them if they were in one place.

fieryginger · 01/07/2018 13:24

I like them. I just open the ones I'm interested in and ignore the rest.

SwedishEdith · 01/07/2018 13:28

I just hide them all.

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 01/07/2018 13:31

Some of them have been fantastically informative, but the piss taking ones are getting quite tiresome.

CadyHeron · 01/07/2018 15:53

Another one who hates the moaning about the AMA threads but likes the actual AMA threads, they're interesting!
Some kind of irony in moaning that the AMA threads clog up the boards and contribute to said clogging up of boards by constant whining about it Grin
The piss take ones are irritating though (apart from the MIL one, that one's funny)

Dljlr · 01/07/2018 16:27

I don't really see the point of them. Asking a lesbian specific questions about their experiences, for example, informs you of that single lesbian's experiences. You can't then extrapolate to all lesbians and think "And now I'm extra knowledgeable about what lesbians think about this and this". You just 'know' that individual poster a little better. So what's the point?

SoupDragon · 01/07/2018 16:30

I’ve only seen 2 “complaint” threads.
