Why I post kitteh threads in GD.
This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by itsrobert (a host of the General Discussion forum).
I didn't see an earlier thread about posting them. I guess I was too busy scouring the interwebs looking only for cute kittehs.
To begin with, I don't do it to annoy people. I don't know if anybody thinks that is my goal.
In posting on DU, I have found that people tend to gravitate to certain forums. GD is the one I am most comfortable in. That doesn't mean I am unwelcome anywhere else, but the response to the same thread draws more reaction here. I think that's because a lot of people who post in GD tend to be mainstays here too.
Because the topics in GD can be unrelentingly serious and grim, I post a laugh or an awww to provide a break. Enough people respond to make it seem desirable. I try to not get carried away, and I believe I post a lot of threads that are very germaine to GD.
As far as wanting attention, believe me if I want attention I can post a 'Come to Jesus rant' that radiates heat through screens.
So there you have it.
