I don't even know what a round table thread is.
Given that a
Ranter of 10 years residency is somehow inexpectably unable to articulate what the
Round Table is..(as if!), I'll do it.
Back in the day, we had daily
Round Tables. The job would rotate among the Moderators. Some days the first thread was historical days in history, or something related to the day if it were a holiday. Birthdays were mentioned. It was a social gathering place as the thread description states - to chit chat, post one-off memes, stories, etc. It was never, ever intended to be a discussion form, as there are over 30 other discussion forums.
It's a given that
Round Table is meant to be a special forum onto itself. As
Ranters dwindled, so did the
Round Tables. It became weekly for a long time. Then monthly, now it's seasonal.
Over the past year, a certain
Ranter has "misplaced" or "didn't know" where he was posting a thread - on three different occasions now - and the only
Ranter to do so - if you can believe that "didn't know" story.
Because you and I both know, you have to purposely select a forum in which to post a thread. You can't "accidentally" post to a forum and not know which Forum you're in. As founder
Doug Thompson would say, "...that doesn't pass the smell test."
Sadly, some people in life have an innate demonstrable talent is for pissing all over it - with no respect for history or tradition, as is the case here.
And now you know the rest of the story.
