simplyputsi 0 #1 August 8, 2007 So anyone else find it increasingly annoying that every damn website seems to allow you to comment on their story, the video, and whatever else. I mean sure sometimes people leave funny comments, but most times it turns into a fight of opposites, or there is spam galore in them. Why can't they just post stories, or videos and if you want to comment you can rate the story/video by giving it a star or 5, or a number 1-10, 10 being best. Seriously isn't that what forums are for?Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

countzero 7 #5 August 8, 2007 if there are ads on the site they are using the comments to keep people on the site longer (commenting, reading and responding) thus creating more exposure for the ads. it's all a marketing conspiracy.diamonds are a dawgs best friend Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Definition of "forum": b: a public meeting place for open discussion c: a medium (as a newspaper or online service) of open discussion or expression of ideas If they don't allow comments, then it wouldn't be a forum. Can't you just skip the comments if you don't want to read them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't you just skip the comments if you don't want to read them? so you are saying you tube, and every news page that allows comments is a forum and not just a website for information? I'm sort of confused.Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
