I currently have a thread on my site that has 845 replies to it. This seems like a pretty large number to me and I was wondering how it compared to some of your "Monster Threads"

Thanks for amusing me..  :laugh:

you ask a question someone elses answers and so forth.

How does that work?  Someone ask a question and the first person to post will answer the question, then what does that person do?  Ask another question for someone else to ask?   :o

Yes. Or it can also go in the other direction where the current one comments on the one before him.

some chain threads which have been very successful on my forum - only to have been deleted by me :2funny: and a restriction put on such threads since they tend to make a forum all 'fun and games' instead of a place of learning (as is in my sites case)

- Interview the person below you
You ask a Q, the next person answers and asks another Q, so on and so forth

- The never ending story
I write a lil, next person continues, etc etc

- Letter Link
I say a word, the next person makes a word with the last alphabet

- Rhyming game
I say a word, next person rhymes
(the above can also be adapted to poem verses)

- Did you know?
A thread where people post one-liner 'facts' and still stuff

- Knock knock jokes
self explanatory

- the compliment thread
one person starts the thread with the rules, the next must compliment them, and the next compliment the one before them, so on andd so forth

- the insult game
this wasnt on my forum but ive seen it..its the opposite of the last

====================

Apart from these there are many other chain threads

but i think they are best to be avoided because at the end of the day they just clutter up ur database with gibbrish - UNLESS ur running a fun n games forum or a fun zone or something

anyways - just my 2 cents

I've also seen big "Yo' Mama" and "Movie Quote" topics.
