What topics do you want to see and why?

Since there has been butthurt from "pointless" threads, what would you like to see in the MP forums and why do you want to see it?

More constructive, interesting threads and discussion. Respectful disagreements. Less reality television.

I’d like to see a thread on a recommended first rack. 

Drama, lots of it.

I enjoy the threads where everyone gangs up on Tradiban to tell him he's stupid.

Does that mean I enjoy him?

Speaking of cyberbullies...you got 42 likes with this one, Bravo!

I don't think I've seen a post with more likes so the main vote for content seems to be for "drama". 

More topics discussing micro-take culture in hard sport climbing.

Cause some people (or trolls) are actually funny. Shocking isn't it?

I don't think by any measure that could be considered funny or clever. Maybe the troll equivalent of lowbrow humor. The point being that the MP Community seems to prefer the lowest common denominator.

Admins I'm being cyber-bullied. Help!

I think the "butthurt" is fair.  There are plenty of places to troll and share witticisms.  I'm not sure Tradiban-style threads are the problem, they're obviously light hearted.  But there are folks whose posts I've taken to ignoring, and that's not terribly useful for community building or learning from one another.  Probably sticking to gear deals and stories with lessons is appropriate, IMHO.

Then start a thread on recomendations for a first rack...

Lol, I think Jake just trolled you.

Man it feels so good. Now I see why people choose this lifestyle. 

Wait, I don’t mean to say people “choose” to be a troll. I understand it’s not a choice, one is just born one way or the other. Please forgive this sis gender white male. 

More memes please

More neck meat because I'm weak.

More Burchy fighting because it's funny.

Less dogs at the crag.

Yes more memes, not sure why we lack them.

Free threading, no explanation needed.

It's alive! It's ALIVE!

KimgTut's "let's analyze climbing videos" was really good.
