I'm good at making threads, but I don't make them on this forum for some reason.

Probably because when I did they were awful.

I said no...

I hardly ever make threads, because I rarely get inspired. When I do they are fairly average.

No.

My most successful thread (470 replies and counting and was necroed a couple of days ago after a couple months of silence) screamed that I didn't use the search bar and only a couple of others hit 50 replies. Most of my threads die before they get to the second page.

On the rare occassions that I do, yeah. Not good at keeping them afloat though. I think the best one got 300+ replies and that was quite a while ago.

I'm halfway decent, I suppose.
Most of my threads get to at least two pages.
True, I've only made five or so, but still.
My most successful was a forum game called Dicks With Time Machines.
I was proud of that one. If I remember correctly, it go to...500 posts or so.

I like to think so, they're usually news, reviews or article-type things, search for "Oblivious Presents". My most successful was probably my poll on how people like to eat eggs.
Yeah, your threads are very popular.

I get hardly any love for my threads and they're usually over within 10 hours. It's a shame really, I thought people knew who I was on here. ^^

No, which is why I stick to the humble task of responding to various threads.

Also, HOLY CRAP YOU ESCAPED FROM HELL!?!?!? Well done.

You have to post a lot and, as often as possible, be the first reply. That's how you carve a name out for yourself.

No, my threads tend to be disastrous, with the exception of my surprisingly-successful first thread and my Nanoha review, and with the latter I posted it in the wrong section.

Nobody likes my threads. My best thread was about Heavy Rain Endings, and only 38 people responded.

I've made a few threads. None of them particularly successful. I made one on a website, it got locked because people flooded it with "Cannot unsee" due to one of the pages. Another one got locked because someone decided to get angry at the thread and post a list of things about it, so I made a list about his post and called him a troll, so someone else decided to (oddly enough) white knight for the troll saying that I was raging at him. That guy got the thread locked. Well done to him for killing my discussion.

I don't really try to make threads, most of them are overshadowed by reposts of old threads, anyway.

Things I think of often lack any manner of debate, only opinion-sharing, so they sink fast after about 3 pages of interesting replies.

The best ones are forum games (I cannae think O' one), RPs (Cannae think/Don't like) and genuinley stimulating ones, which are hard to think of

I try to make original threads. They're really unsuccessful. My only successful thread was the "rate the username". It doesn't count as a real thread...
