so what is it that makes a good thread? like, one that gets
an assload of replies.

One that is an interesting subject at the moment. I know
this is not a very thorough answer but how many replies a
thread does or does not get is very dynamic, there aren't
necessarily any prerequisites to a topic getting many posts
other than that it is interesting to the readers (?). Hope
this helps.

One that people make considered answers for. I hate the
"five favorite..." type of topics because no one reads them
they just post.

any topic with the word 'god' i it is sure to get it's share
of replies..

i guess any topic that's controversial, or ones that people
would have a strong opinion on (ie.religon) would get alot
of posts.

I think there's a tendacy to treat this MB as a glorified
chat room...nothing wrong with that but when 90% of thrads
consist of single sentence & don't add jush to the site...

Hopefully xltonic will include a chatroom so that should
arract the bored and overly chattythat ....

Dallas Criterion for Successful topics:
1. Title has to captivate the reader [this may ensure a
topic hit]
2. Actual topic has to be captivating or suitably not for
the reader to comment
3. Number of reply's / rate of reply's may act as an added
incentive to check the post.
4. A particular person may also act as a catalyst for both
1. and 2.

What is cavating who knows -a bit of a collective action
problem/dynamic .. ok that was pointless
