1. people read the first post the most .the last post the least ...unless they posted in that part of the thread previosuly .
2. The jokes thread will be huge ,nobody will bother to navigate to the last pages to read them

some advantages of sub-forum over a thread

1. you know if you have read the joke as new jokes and unvisited ones are highlighted
2. You can to some extent gauge the quality of jokes with the number of replies it gets ........ if an old joke has zero replies ...it would mean that either the joke is difficult to understand or is not funny
3. its easier to create a new thread than a new reply in a 100 page thread\

so a thread for jokes imo is a bad idea
I think you didn't uderstand. i meant to have a common joke thread like there is for cartoon Life in IBB. We can have jokes thread also.

Did you saw the vote pattern & mod reply?

6-10 is not bad according to me if we have a vote on banning spam what will be the results. I am just conveying my point. Some are voting just by reading first line of vote section.

Are you not getting rep for them from me?

I generally don't like to read them when there are so many comments as it is too distracting.

I just read smoothy & give him rep.

Its just that I don't mention giving rep much.

excercising the right to vote is very important. If you don't agree with the
given choices you should still be able to vote for whatever is not there in
the poll. this is the basis for democracy.

farce you want to disturb the 6-10 ratio

P.S: By adding third option, It will look like 2-6-8

If someone want's to create a single joke thread, I have no objection - a sort of canonical list. But original joke threads will remain as they are.

Very truly, I will not find the time.

Do you think its practically feasible, I don't think so?

Only in case, you take a week leave from your office, lock yourself inside a room with just you & IBF.

report doesnt mean they will be deleted. Its just informing mod's that look at this post.

See by doing that you are giving more work to the mod's, now when you post jokes you dont want anybody to appreciate you ?

No I will be creating a thread for joke in which I have not written mine jokes but other. If you want to comment then comment in original thread. I will be giving who had given that joke.
