Why Do People Buy Live Chicks From Breeders and Farm Stores‭?

I pay no attention to that.

​

I have mixed emotions about that.
Afraid its gonna turn into a contest with some posters just trying to rack up posts.
I've seen a poster that seems to want to answer about every post with a question in it. Bad deal is usually they're way off with their answers.
Then there were two members posting post after post of chit chat on one of my threads. I mentioned I was concerned that they were racking up the pages on the thread which I didn't want since when threads get to long others don't want to read through it all sometimes.
I like the idea of encouraging people to post more and participate more but I guess there's always good and bad that goes with that.

Always. Some people really thrive on things such as this. I am not one. Makes zero difference in my real life where I am on the leaderboards.

I think you're right but I hope it will calm down after a while. There are bound to be people who will see it as a competition but I think they'll realise after a while there are no prizes.
It's worth a try I think. Posting helps keep the forum alive. I wouldn't know about people chit chatting on a thread I made........it never happens to me

The chit chatting helps sometimes. It allows me to get to know who one is and how they think...which can be a good thing.

Honestly, I really don't mind. Attempts at serious posting makes my brain hurt.
I do like to answer people wo have asked a direct question though; it just seems polite in general, especially if they've gone to the effort of making a long and reasonable post.
