Hello again, my fellow Escapists! As some of you may know, I keep to a quota of failed topics. Gotta have at least a few every month or I figure there is something terribly wrong with the world and we're all about to die. Now, by "failed" topics I mean topics that only like, 4 people responded to, and 2 of those 4 responses were you responding to two other people in an attempt to keep the topic alive. But the greatest is, of course, the infamous no-responses-at-all topic. Not a single person on the entire forum thought that topic was worth discussing. At all. Period.
But we all know it's going to be dead and buried in short order, just vanishing into the twisting nether of deeper forum pages, never to be heard from again...until someone with a new account doesn't read the "please don't necro topics" rule and digs it out from the grave.
Well, consider this topic as being a tombstone for those long-lost Topics That Never Were. A grave marker, lest we forget them entirely. Surely the souls of those poor topics deserve at least this dignity, do they not?
Please, post the titles of the topics that have sadly withered and died before your very eyes when you really thought they were worth discussing. Describe the topic, and why you thought it would be a good/fun discussion.
Here, I lay to rest the topic:
"Memories You're "Haunted" By"
In which I asked my fellow Escapists if they had ever been "haunted" by a bad/embarrassing memory. Haunted in the sense that it just pops up every now and then and makes you facepalm at how you acted or what you said or what you did during that situation. Normally brought on by just the slightest thing that reminded you of that particular situation. I thought it'd be interesting because it happens to me every now and then and I figured that meant it likely had to happen to other people as well. So I figured I'd ask what those embarrassing memories are just for a spot of wrong.
Well, I figured wrong.
Not a single person responded, and only 22 people even bothered to give it a look. Evidently everyone on The Escapist lives a life without any kind of regret.
P.S. Yes, I do fully expect this topic to be banished to the wastes of obscurity soon.
