Sitting by Thalias Tree

Subject: Sitting by Thalias Tree Mon Aug 16, 2010 11:04 am

I was sitting by Thalias tree and reading a book from my favorite book series, Inkheart.

Um? xD

(( I love Inkheart, however this thread should really be in the forum titled "Thalia's Pine."

Ask a mod/admin to move it for you? ))

Thread. Not forum. A forum is the whole site, a thread is the areas of the site which certain topics go in, a topic is a post inside a thread, and a reply is a reply to that topic. And, there is no need for OOC brackets, for this is a OOC zone.

(( I'm afraid that's wrong, Momus Boy. You can say forum meaning either the entire site or a section in which you post threads (for example, the Chat is a forum). Thread is another word for topic.

I'm using parenthesis because I thought this thread was for role playing so if this got moved to the correct forum the double parenthesis - which implies that you're talking OOC rather than as one of your characters - would be appropriate. ))

Good point. But, not, it's only thread. I'm sorry. Maybe, if there was a FORM in the thread you could call it a FORM, but not a FORUM.

Guest

(( I'm sorry, that didn't make any sense to me. Care to explain? ))

OOC: It is generally only called a thread.

Guest

(( What is?

* Sorry for the off-topicness, Jen. ))

Subject: Re: Sitting by Thalias Tree Tue Aug 17, 2010 5:34 pm

OOC: A thread. A thread is not a forum. A thread is a thread.

Guest

(( I know that. I'm going to go from largest to smallest right now to explain to you what it is.

Does this pop any lightbulbs?

Momus, she posted this THREAD in the wrong FORUM.
GET THE MESSAGE?
YOU CAN'T SAY SHE POSTED THE THREAD IN THE WRONG THREAD.
Pop any lightbulb?

No, I am saying she referred to a Thread as a Forum. It was kinda a like sub-thread thing, but meh.

WRONG.
A thread is a TOPIC.
A forum is not a THREAD
e.g. Thalia's Pine is a forum.

The whole site may be considered a forum or simply site.

SO ACTUALLY YOU CALLED A THREAD A FORUM.
DONE.

Guest

(( I think we all need to calm down just a bit. D8

I'm sorry if I frustrated you, Momus, but I was only correcting you because you corrected me incorrectly (ow my head). Now if we could let this discussion die off? We don't need to argue about this, it's irrelevant and rather rude to Jen. ))

OOC: I am not mad. But, a topic is what is located INSIDE a thread Pink. Let's ask someone.

Guest

(( No. A topic is a thread. You can call them either topics or threads.

That's that.

THIS SITE IS AGING ME. ))

SEE? YOU'RE WRONG AGAIN.
A thread IS a topic.
END OF DISCUSSION.
SORRY, JEN. EXCUSE MY INTERFERENCE.
