People only respond to these bullshyt threads tho. The serious threads get no play at all and get lost in the bullshyt.
The majority have spoken

If ain't nobody responding to a post then you can't force them to. It's hit or miss. I've made threads I put thought into and they flopped. I've made some that got a lot of replies. I've made bullshyt threads that have gotten over 100 + replies and some that got none. You won't know what works until you try. It's up to the mods to put threads in the appropriate forum.
