Do what you feel

Always feel intimidated posting in the morning or evening threads because of the timezone difference, but as far as I can tell that’s only going to affect me, antelope (where’s he gone?) and ma0sm, and really it’s our fault for being on the wrong side of the world.

But given the choice I’d probably prefer a single daily thread. Thanks.

Aw you shouldnt. Every here is cool apart from the people who voted to getfrid of daily threads and they wont be in there anyway!

hardly ever go into them tbh, they’re always far too long by the time i turn up. probably best to keep them separate though as one for the whole day will only scare me off even more.

Never really got why we need a Banal Thread, because daily threads are banal threads. But morning/day and evening threads are good, from my experience which I have acquired over many, many years, none of the nightshift bother with a 100 reply day thread containing lots of conversations that have already ended.

Obviosulsy I have to add that the nightshift was better in the olden days, though.

Daily threads are more ‘hi everyone how r u im off to strasbourg for my cats birthday’ whereas banal is just like ‘ffs man how is it only 4pm’

Giggling at the idea this would be two posts from the same person

45%: decisive, would probably represent an overall majority in a General Election…

Remember when before @Scout had her baby…those evening threads used to be epic!
But now she (apparently) has more important things to be doing ;o)

Just out of curiosity, why were they epic? How were they different from how they are now? Obviously some people may have gone since then or are busier so post less… but I just wondered if there were any other reasons? TELL ME :grin:

Minimum 100 replies every night IIRC.
Scout used to be such a blabbermouth ;o)

Haha, I seeeee, gotcha :thumbsup:

it was also like a completely different set of people. there was like a defined dayshift crowd and then a bunch of different people would post in the nightshift, just felt really different.

Alright, I think we can call this result.

Give us each day our daily thread, to loosely cover the period from early morning til 6pm ish, and an evening thread to cover 6ish onward. If you don’t see a daily thread or an evening thread by a decent time, start one! We’re all chums here.

Banal threads are optional for the late afternoon period of particularly dull days, call it as you see fit.

Let it be known!

Old Nightshift threads were TERRIBLE.
Was pleasing when they siphoned themselves off onto Tinychat.
