But then he wouldn't have anything to bitch about.
Oh but I still do.
That active threads link is nice, hadn't tried that before. Got onto some other interesting deer hunting stuff right away, but it does not address the core issue I raised. I'm 62 ......... been there, done that, and have a long bucket list still to complete. Not going to waist my time clicking on every single post regardless of title just to see what might be there. If I miss something great by not hitting your "bait" or obscure title, oh well, my loss. Working in a university environment, I've been on the internet since its inception. I frequent lots of sites, the content and policies of this site (or lack there of) make it one of the better ones. That hardly means that there isn't room for improvement in some folks postings.
Isn’t a title supposed to be interesting or at least meant to get the reader to investigate further?
I don’t understand the conundrum? The titles of threads are so catchy that they’ve got someone all frothed up clicking on threads and reading stuff that they’d rather pass over but can’t because of the catchy titles? 😂

I thought it was about chinch bait, don’t have my glasses. We had them SOB’s bad last year in Burnet, I got them all over my 🥜 nuts!!! Had to take bleach baths. Anyone ever had them?
Are you talking about threads titled something like "Yesterday"
And then the narrative is "I killed four guys with a shovel."
Or a link to a story about four dwarves eating a dog the day before today?
Great example ......... Yesterday
Are we talking about your four dead guys, your "dwarfs" eating dogs (dwarves is a punk rock band, maybe they were the ones eating the dogs, who knows), or this .................... you tell me? Sorry, but I wouldn't waste my time clicking on just "Yesterday".
I'm obviously just a newbie here with only a few postings since last fall. However, in my short tenure I've seen some things that I feel detract from this site. One of them is the frequent use of thread titles that I would label as click bait postings. These are used by a fair number of folks as a methodology to force you to at least click on the posting to see what it's about. I think some folks doing this are just innocently trying to give something a clever title, where as others use this purposely as their default method of presentation. It bugs the [bleep] out of me and I consider it a waste of my time to have to click on these to see what you have to say. To me, this is no different than Pelosi telling me I got to "vote for it before I can read it". Think about it folks............
If you have something interesting to say I would love to read it. It might even pulse my INTJ tendencies enough to reply to it. Please give your thread some kind of title so that I know what it's about or I'm not even reading it. There are enough clearly titled threads here and elsewhere on the net that I'm just scrolling on down past you.
Yeah sure, I'm just a newbie and I should just GTFO if I don't like things. However, I'm simply just trying to improve this great site, nothing more. I'm sure there are a lot of other members who feel the same way.
serious question......are you also fireball2......bob
Ok, another great example. Everybody's best buddy Paddler just put one up titled "Celebrating Again". Regardless what I may or may not know about Paddler from what I've seen so far here, there is no way I'm wasting my time clicking on a title like that regardless who wrote it.

No, never used that name on any site. I'd never been on this site till last fall when I joined as Mike. I found this site while searching for 6.5 CM info for my new Savage.

All you need to know, is that the Beatles sucked.

You "picked" the song, not me! I'd mostly agree with your comment. Paul and Ringo are terrible on base and drums. Never cared for John's stuff. George though, had a lot of talent. I love his stuff with the Traveling Wilburys later in life.
Campfire threads are like a box of chocolates - which makes browsing them a little more interesting. You think it's about politics and a picture of a fat chick pops up and you realize none of your expectations really matter anyway. Chill out and let the wave take you for a ride.

Yeah, I caught that yesterday in a thread. Personally, fat chick photos never did anything for me. I'm 6'3", 270lb, but I always had a weakness for petite brunettes................
