God, I miss the days when we actually discussed things with WORDS! ;) Now we're just trying to out-do each other with gifs postings. *head explodes* It gets really annoying when there's just a constant stream of gifs. A little moderation goes a long way. Also being tactful with them will help too and make it less redundant.

On to GH.......another great Friday cliffhanger! Loved the look on Anna's face when she saw Faison. Can't wait til Monday.

GIFs were boring a while ago. I use them very sparsely, and almost never towards other people.

I tend to believe that when it's nothing but pages of GIFs - on any board, mind - that it's just a symptom of the actual poster unable to muster the same wit they're subjectively projecting onto Mildly Appropriate Pop Culture Gif #24601. It just gets vapid.

I don't mind them once, but when they're repeated time and again, the get old.

Gifs are fun, child. They're very popular.

It doesn't mean you always have to post them, especially when they don't add anything to the discussion. Some of them are even rude gifs directed at other members and I think we should stop that. Replying to a gif, with a gif, then another person jumps in with another gif.......there's just no need for that. I really think it's getting out of hand. All I'm asking is to just use them in moderation.

You say this about "rude gifs", but unless the person it is directed at is offended and says something, I fail to see why it matters. It's obvious many posters here enjoy them and they're not hurting anyone so this is just another case where I have to ask why we're not allowed to have fun anymore? Things like this never used to be such a big deal...

+1! Thats why I love this board! I am constantly taking "Screenshot" pictures of these SON "Gif"Fights so I can laugh later on. I also send them to people when they are REAL enjoyable! BTW, your the best at this GIF thing and I am falling more in love with NeNe by the minute!

Thank you, at least someone appreciates it!

I guess I'll just shut up since apparently my personality (which has been the same since I joined, 3 years ago), is no longer welcome here.
