Unhappy Re: No More Teasers in 2007?

I don't know about you, but rarely do we have any mechanism completed by week 4. Would you prefer we posted pictures after ship date? Where is the fun there? We might as well wait until regionals!

I also think this is becoming a symantic argument, when it shouldn't even be an argument, period! ... I never really thought this was an issue until it was brought up. This will always be an issue. We have a lot of younger students on here, many of whom still cannot differentiate between a good and a bad teaser... no harm there, we shouldn't punish them for posting "useless" pictures. I would hope that those threads simply fade away due to the lack of responses. Do we really need 2 pages of discussion on what is a good and a bad teaser? It seems like everyone needs to voice their opinion these days and argue about it for days... it makes me want to read CD less and less. Opinions are great, but 40+ pages in some threads is ridiculous.

I am not sure if you noticed, but that thread I created was placed in the rumor mill for a reason. It sounds like you dislike the 'fun' factor that CD posseses... No offesne, but if I didn't occasionally laugh, or have to stare at a random 'teaser' picture for a few minutes to figure out what the pic is of, I don't think I would continue to read CD. That is just me though... yet another opinion to add to the pile.
