Am I the only one that thinks all those "The person above you" threads are really stupid and a waste of bandwidth? I clicked on a few of them but never posted in them once I realized how really pointless they are. Clearly lots of people post in them but it escapes me as to why people do.

Rant off. :grumble:

    Its usually a good source of ego bust on days that you feel like an attention *kitten*, unless you get skipped over like I do all the time

    As somebody who thinks those posts are kinda childish (even though I have been guilty of participating in them myself), I think its even more juvenile to whine and complain about them when there are bigger problems out there than b****ing about s thread where people compliment each other

    I'll agree, they're rather silly most of the time; but everybody has their own way to pass the time. Some play the 'above you' games, I work on tossing playing cards into a hat. To each their own.

    But *****ing and complaining about threads that ***** and complain about those childish threads is... is... what?
