    What pulls you into a thred? Capital letters? Insults on moderators, or admins? I've heard alot of things from people and why they read certain threds, I just wanna know what yours is!
     
    This topic is ironic to that of the DCC name changes. =P

    I suppose criteria in a thread title that's related to the forum itself would strike as eye-catching to me. And maybe the old "Do not click this!" kind of lure. Other stuff too, just anything out of the ordinary really.
     
    The exclamation marks did it for me in this thread. XD Though usually I'll just click a thread if it's about clearly something I know or if it's too ambiguous to figure out. Or if it's witty.

    It really depends for me. XD
     
    I was so caught up in other things that I forgot to say what shiny things attract me to threds. I like anything in caps, and anything that complains about ones drama. That always gives me a nice giggle.

    And anything that uses the letters(and number) 'u' '2' and 'y'. Those are always fun ^_^
     
    ANything that sounds just intresting. I mean if it just looks intresting then hey. Still for this thread it was 'You there! Read this NOW' Got me to look at what was going on.
     
    Whatever the subject of the topic is obviously... if it interest me, then I'll click on it. But, say if there's two threads with the identical thread title, then whichever one types normally gets my attention o.o;
     
    I read almost anything that doesn't seem one bit creative.
    Creative as in artistic and such, I prefer random things, likey this~
     
    Thread titles that are obviously similar to this thread, making it seem like it's something for me to bother checking. Profanity, titles that lead to arguements given from the thread starter, or complaints about a certain problem. Otherwise, basically whatever else interests me.
     
    I look at the content of the thread title, mainly. If it has something I know or am interested in, it draws me into looking at it at least. Admittedly, I'll look at a lot of topics, but I won't post in them all. ^^; I also get drawn to threads that seem to be breaking rules; it can be easy to tell by the title. ;3

    The only exception to this rule is OVP -- I click them all, interesting title or not. >D
     
    Threads that are active, and have recently been posted in are what attracts me. :)
     
    I just read any thread in this forum and whether or not how boring the thread is, I may post in it

    :t354:~*!*~Queen Boo~*!*~
     
    Exclamation marks, and usually a random name for a topic drags me in.
     
    Any type of anger implied in the title will probably draw me into a thread, and then there are factors like persecution, complaints, etc. I will probably also click anything that involves Bleach. :x
     
    I'm always interested in threads that deal with current events. I'm always watching or reading the news, so I usually have something I can contribute to the topic at hand. I'm interested in generally everything dealing with Pokemon, Mega Man, and Bleach, so those topics will pull me in too. I'm not generally interested in threads with titles like this one, but I was bored so decided to click. XD
     
    Those treads with for example: "DO NOT READ THIS" or something ironic maybe
     
    I have to say it, Teresa, you have managed the age-old ploy that takes people in. Like me.

    Usually if it seems very urgent or important to me I'll plop in.
     
    Threads which aren't really related to the subject attract me and this title was kinda personal to the reader or whatever. Capital letters are good too.
