What if we had a shoutout thread? Similar to the callouts, but not as crazy. And the shoutouts could potentially be positive, so it's not like a flame fest. Rules which actually apply, no personal attacks, etc. Maybe? Stupid idea?

I don't care to hear about everything you do in the day. I don't care when you brushed your teeth this morning, who left what backpack in what room, or any of the other mundane crap that people have been posting just to post about something. That stuff just does not liven up the board.

And betrothed, I'm disgusted with most of the comments that you have posted. I don't think I've ever read such judgmental comments in my life. I'm so lucky that the girls I speak to on theknot are nothing like you...I would've never come on here for ADVICE if I would've encountered a big a bitch as you.

Sorry, anysunrise. It sounds like you're really in a fast food wasteland. Just remember, the amount of Taco Bell you eat directly correlates to the amount of diarrhea you have. So enjoy not having diarrhea.
MIAF, I like the sound of that. Though it seems right now that what people want is an opportunity to air their grievances. Like Festivus. I wouldn't mind a shout-out thread, though who knows how personally people will take things, and that's when you run into trouble.

It's never actually caused any issues for me. I must have a steel-lined digestive system or something.
I agree, a shout-out thread might liven things up a bit, but I'd like to hear more. Would it be stricktly Knot related, board specific, anything goes or what?
I think it would need to be Knot-specific, otherwise it would just turn into another I Judge-type thread.

I think it could deal with on the board type stuff. Personal complaints can be aired out in vent threads. Is everyone on board (no pun intended) with this?

Nothing about looks of course. But also, don't callout someone for a different lifestyle choice or personal preference. Ex: Soandso, I can't believe you voted for Obama. Boo, you suck.
