O.K.
I'm no more capable of seeing thread about "best guitar player", "most underrated ...", "favorite 5 albums of ...", "most important top guitar solo", "favorite beatles album", etc.
Those are coming back again and again it's completely anti-subject threads. No interest in here. That reminds me the first conversations about music when I was about 14 years old!
Come on! Substance, please.

Make it a top 6 and add this one to the list.

Yeah, and I could make a top 5 of the worst comments and put yours on top of it...

Well said LD. The irony here, of course, is that this person is carping about threads with no substance while posting a thread himself which has no purpose or relevence except to garner some attention for himself (sad man) and to wind other people up. He doesn't even back his "argument" up with any examples of what a good thread topic should be like.
It's easy to put other people down in order to make yourself look superior isn't it Matfool? People like you make me sick.
I suggest that if you havn't got anything positive or interesting to say you should go to another forum where you can speak to people as intellectual as yourself (note - sarcasm).

WoW! I'm shaking things... creating reactions!
Look, go to the U2 thread I've started(I said it was commercially overrated). It's not the greatest thread but there was something to debate and it was interesting.
I just wanted to say that we can learn opinions with real threads, not with those "top albums", "top guitar player" etc.
I'm not putting anyone down personnally, stop with your big observation please. I'm not superior or anything...

So, if YOU don't like a thread, it's not a real thread? How is that not being superior? Why do we need to 'learn something'? You get to start threads that contribute nothing, but others don't?

Here's a thought: if you don't like a thread, don't read it. Don't post in it.

I delete a lot of threads that are redundant, and move alot that were placed in the wrong place, but whether I like the content of the thread or not isn't the point. If other people here want to debate whether Steve Vai or Eddie Van Halen are the best guitarist ever, that's fine. I personally don't care, but I'm not going to condemn the thread as a whole because I don't find it interesting.

Apparently Matcool is the arbiter of substance, and the Supreme Overlord of significance. Please bounce thread ideas off him from here on.

Transmission over.
