I belive that the favoring is not anybody's fault. it's just somewhat a shame in a way. Peronsally, I don't reply anywhere. I don't find it very fun to look at other's people's puppy pictures and say "OMG THATS SOOO CUTE OMG OMG OMG" It's just plain boring to me. I don't bother. But others do, and IWN, ITS NOT YOUR FAULT. ITS NOT ANYONE'S FAULT.
Nobody favors on purpose.

What is favoring exactly? It's quite basically only thinking of the people who are your bestest buddies, the ones who have great art skills, etc. Mostly teh friends thing though. What sucks is that new people don't get a chance.
I am probablly one of the least popular ppl on here. Somehow, I still feel barely noticed. Not as much as before, but still. >_>

What stinkz is all of the newcomers are soo freakin nice. And the ppl here are all like: "Oh, hi, welcome to teh forums!" And then they leave and forget about them for teh rest of their forum career. That is just...wierd. And we ALL DO IT. Humans are stupid people.

I'm getting very sick of favoring around here. Srsly. Some people's threads only get looked at, no matter what the topic, just because they're so called "popular".
Nobody can control popularity, and it's not fair, but I'm not pointing fingers becaus eit cannot be controlled.
But even so, it's about the stupidest thing that's ever been created.

^ wut she said

Woah, I think some people in here need to take a chill pill or two. No one's "upset", no one is flaming, people are discussing what could make the forum better. Let's cool it down a little, yeah?

No one says it's anyone's fault that people favore other threads. Sonic was referring to my thread getting moved down while the others were active; did I point the finger at IWN or anyone? No, I don't really mind. It doesn't surprise me that people are favoring other people, I've been aware that that's what NKC does for a long while now. I'm not saying "UR THRED MOR POPULER THEN MINE!!!!!!!! >_>" because I know that it's because I don't post pictures of my dogs every day. andcuzno1leixme*kry*

About the Pupparazi thing, in my OPINION (I know I shouldn't say that, but it's getting awfully tense in this thread, yeah?) I think it's... Can't really think of a word for it, but what's the point in posting pictures of your dog every day and having the same people say the same thing every time? "Cute." "Thanks." "Heres more." "Cute. Thanks." I won't encourage or discourage the idea of deleting the board. I'm indifferent about it. If it goes, okay, if it doesn't then that's wonderful for us all. I'm terribly sorry for taking the time to give a respectful idea of merging Pupparazi with the Photography board.

To me that was a good idea, but if everyone's going to get all defensive about it then fine. BTW, isn't the board name "Pupparazi" a knock-off of "Paparazzi"? Let's have a look at what a paparazzi is, yes?

"A freelance photographer who pursues celebrities trying to take candid photographs of them to sell to newspapers or magazines"

Huh. So taking pictures of celebrities is considered photography; well then, so is taking pictures of animals. And that is why I think it would fit fine as, at least, a sub-board in Photographer's Corner. With, of course, a new rule "DOENT KRITICIZE PIX" to prevent chaos. Again, discouraging the idea or encouraging? Neither. I don't care.

Funny that alot of these posts in here are sneakily directed at me... Now that this is all cleared up, let's turn the heat down shall we?

smiley fight

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

completely agreed. Entire post. Both of them.

I am glad the favorism is finally getting to be known, but all of you quit blaming it on yourself, please. None of us are saying "oh it's ~pL~/IWN/labby/orca's fault!!!" No.

but actually psy I was the one suggesting the merging boards. XD

And I only said that because you all say that it's dog photography. Hence photography. Well, since it IS dog photography to you people, I didn't see the total stupidity in merging boards. I do not consider it photography, I just don't. That's an opinion, and I was respecting yours by stating that, FYI. And you call it stupid. Alright then. [I just got a little crazy with that..]

I'm the same as Psy, I don't care either way, but ya.

EDIT: I'm not fighting off your opinion, but I'm just stating why I said it in the first place.

Listen folks, it's not leaving anytime soon. It's what makes this forum this forum, in a sense. Personally though, I'd like critique, because that's what I need to improve. If you don't want to improve..alright. I don't really understand that, but whatever that's me.
Honestly guys, stop this arguing..it's driving me insane.

Pupp isn't EVER leaving. >___>

~PL~ post, I don't even know how these things get started half the time.

I agree with Sonic and DM4. I mean, some of these threads on the Off-Topic board are literally only posted in by 2 users. As in, it's like having a whole conversation that you could have through PM, but on a board.

And the favoring is terrible. I just don't know anymore.. I actually rarely go on Pupparazi because I feel as if I should post in everyone's threads, instead of just doing what I normally do, checking out completely random threads. Artistic Creations isn't too bad. It's mainly the Photography board, Sig Shops and Galleries, and Pupparazi.

But it's human nature to favor. We all do it, believe it or not. And I have a feeling that we're not the only forum who does. It's the internet, whether we like it or not. Now let's just chill about this problem. It's not at all like Nsider, Nsider had even worse favoring, plus an incredible amount of SPAM and flame wars.
