Why do people feel the need to add ": Discuss" at the end of their topic posts? I'm sorry but what else were we supposed to do in the BBS? I thought the NG BBS was about discussing things, but I guess I forgot. Thanks for the reminder dipshit.

You didn't say to discuss, therefore I won't.

We shan't discuss this since you did not want us to. If you did, you would've ended your post with : Discuss

Some people like to state the obvious.

Sometimes I don't know how else to end a topic post.

I personally am not really bothered by it.

Sometimes you need to state the obvious when dealing with stupid people.

Well sometimes you get the fuckfaces who go off topic. Or you want to discuss something similiar or not exactly the story/details in the original post.

There's actually been a rule-topic just to stop people doing it.

The reason people do it is because it serves as a good quote springboard to begin a reply from.

Psychologically, putting discuss at the end of a post encourages people to actually reply, and gives a conclusive ending to the post.

I quoted this because he told me to discuss.

Whereas if he didn't i would've left it.

To prove the thread belongs on the bbs and not the person's blog because there is something to discuss and people should do so. Lol.

Interrogatives aren't as convincing as imperatives. Try more forceful language.
