In order to get a thread going, you´re going to have to come up with a specific subject/question/point of view. A generic subject doesn't work. And you need to position yourself when you start. That way you get people to react and the discussion will get going.



Upto now this thread didn't come up with any ideas. Just some generic subjects.

And you can also blow life into existing threads by posting something strong.

Weakness doesn't get you many reactions.

I think that's a good suggestion.

Yes of course the subjects are general and if we notice there is interest in some subjects then it will give members ideas to personalize it and make it into a proper thread for many ideas can come from one subject.

So you give subjects and then other members will have to generate the ideas to make them specific and create threads.

It's a nice theory.

^ it is more of a practical application

What I meant was that it's wishful thinking. In other words: Not going to happen.

Since most people have been complaining lately that the INFJ threads are falling in popularity, it would be a good idea to know what you guys are interested in talking about. I would like the cooperation from all of you to come up with at least 5-10 ideas to make better threads. In other words, what would you like to read about? What are you interested in?

why do we have to be popular, I mean our thread?
The thing I like about INFJ threads (well, at least before) is that they are so pure and true-- well thought of and are actually very relevant to my experience. If I want something funny or common, something beyond what the core of my INFJ personality, I visit other threads outside INFJ and succumb to their world.

Lately, many are just out of the blue thoughts. Kinda makes our thread not as special as it used to be.

Ah I see a party pooper you are bit too late the theory is already in effect in the section hence the practical application comment. You are welcome to participate of course with the witty humor INTJ’s are known for.

Hmm I didn't see this as doing it to be popular. I don't know about the others I think we are being who we are and we also have a good sense of humor. I've read many of the past threads before I became a member here and it seems lately we are being more open with each other not just being supportive or sharing experiences. It felt so formal before. Well just sharing my opinion.

Well darkstar, you're always more than welcome to contribute with your own threads, but this one in particular was meant to ignite ideas on which topics more people of this forum would like to hear more about. Yes, probably the word "popular" was not a very wise thing to say and I apologize for the misunderstanding, but at the same time all this came about because of this thread: the eternal reoccurrence, so I assumed that people wanted to see different topics.

But like I said, you may do as you wish. This was just a suggestion
