    Awhile back I auctioned a site. I had several people post to place a bid even though I had announced that the sold was sold and put that in bold. I have seen similar many times.

    I think it is funny and I get a big laugh when I see several people writing "PM has been sent" when the OP specifically stated NO PMs. I am sure most of us have seen numerous posts like that here. Maybe there should be an Award for the dummest post and everyone could nominate any post they feel would win.

    We could use a button similar to the "report a post' to nominate a post - what would the winner get?

    I always read the first post and some replies, if it is a long thread, I will read the first 3 posts, go to last see last replies and then reply.

    I once gave away a domain to the first person to guess the correct number between 0 and 50. There were people who guessed the same exact number that others had already guessed. There were even people who guessed numbers as high as 100! :eek:

    I don't know how much a chicken costs. Why do you want a chicken anyway? Eggs? You are better of buying them from a supermarket. I guess chickens make good pets though...

    This is the most posts I've read on a thread in general chat other than P&R section.

    I'm hoping you do one of those give away a freebie to see who's actually reading these posts.

    So, I'm keepin' track! :)

    Freebie section 1 out of 100. Read the Topic and then go to Quick reply
    Other sections I donno.
    DP needs to remove the quick reply feature lol.
    But oh well most people dont have time to go thru the whole thread i guess they just read first one and move on to quick reply.

    Hey quit picking on the chickens! :mad: And no you are not better off buying eggs from a super market. If my avatar didn't have his head chopped off, I would send him over to kick your ass ! :p

    Oh BTW, what the hell is this thread all about? :confused: :D

    I read the OP, but what it comes down to is every1 is lazy, they don't want to do all the reading, they just want to state what they have to say and then gtfo!

    I would tend to read a few posts, to get the general gist of what is happening, then I'll speed-read the rest, stopping only to read those which look useful.

    Then I'll try to answer on topic, if possible :)

    People are people, we just have to deal with that.
