Thread: how NOT TO start a thread (Split infinitives slay me)

  1. #1

    Default how NOT TO start a thread (Split infinitives slay me)

    I've been noticing a whole lot of closed threads here in GC.

    Give me one reason for a thread -

    which SHOULDN'T

    be started - because it would be closed

    and/or discuss each other's reasons.

    And go!

    A thread that highly encourages flame posts either directly or indirectly wouldn't be a good thread to make (I'm kind of suprised but glad that the positive/negative comment thread isn't closed).
