What poll
There's no poll, but anyways, I say yes.
pollinated
oh hello
Poll is up
Yup and I'll contribute.
-snip-
It will be a forum for all those "I am an x, ask me about x" kinds of threads we've been seeing a lot of recently
"Ask me about (insert x subject here)" kind of threads
yea sounds good. I work at subway, you can ask me. I guess that's contributing.
I said no.
Sure, they're actually fairly interesting threads (learn about a lot of occupations etc.) but they're cluttering up GD. So I say yes.

Yes and "I'm a Tech Core student, Ask me about what I've made"
That janitor guy who started it all must feel pretty important.

Do that or make the threads bannable again.
I say just ban all of these damn parody threads.
Ban the excessive threads, allow only one or two a month or something.
I don't think anyone would use it. People would make threads but they'd get nowhere near the attention they do in GD. Maybe make them a Fast Threads thing.
[QUOTE=Benie;20699287]I say just ban all of these damn parody threads.[/QUOTE] This is also what I think is best. Unless you actually have an interesting job, like enlisted soldier or surgeon, nobody really cares about your low paying dead end job.
No, just ban whoever makes an "Ask me about x" thread. There's enough shitty subforums as it is.
These are some of my favorite threads.
ask me about being a piss lord 146 reading
Sure. I got a brother with autism, ask me about blahhhh
Why not. "I have Aspergers, ask me about high-fat milk!"
[QUOTE=zombiefreak;20699083]He's worshiped now.[/QUOTE] Well his thread was awesome, and he regularly updated and responded to the questions. Now to answer your poll Hezzy, yes there should be a subforum; it would keep the GD less cluttered with those type threads.
[QUOTE=Hezzy;20698962]It will be a forum for all those "I am an x, ask me about x" kinds of threads we've been seeing a lot of recently[/QUOTE] No, it was a fad that should have been left at the janitor and is now just annoying.
That'd be fun, actually, as long as it's active. Good way to share your knowledge and gain some more - that Janitor thread a while back was actually a good read. I could contribute, I've worked with Printers and refilling ink cartridges for years now so assuming anyone was interested in anything regarding this I could answer some questions.
