There were certainly days where nothing in the GCC was something I really wanted to read, but who said there had to be a percentage in there that appeals to me?? Leave it for a couple of days and there WILL be something in there I want to read.
What about other people who aren't the regulars here?
I made an analogy about a stranger approaching a group of people in our previous discussion -- back when we started the PDA.
What happens when a person who could become a great addition to this community sees it for the first time? All they see is the stuff they don't want to read. If they don't like it, they won't come back. And there would be one less quilter in here than could have been.
Imagine yourself stumbling across a new website. How likely are you to return if all you saw were posts about personal problems and over-the-top jokes?
Well, I'm sure some people would say "great, my kind of place" :) But in general, flood of any one kind of messages isn't good.
