What kinds of threads are your favorite kinds of threads? You know, when you first log on and skim over the titles of the threads on the first page--which ones do you open first, or which ones excite you, or which ones inspire you to try something new, or which ones make your inner child laugh and jump up and down and clap?

My favorite threads used to be the ones where members would tell about the new dolls that they were creating out of other AG dolls they got, and the ones with photo stories of their dolls' activities and adventures. I often don't have as much time to enjoy them any more.....

How about you?

I love the threads about crafts that you can have fun making for your dolls. I also enjoy product reviews. They are very helpful since the pictures always make the items look soooo cute. Other topics of interest for me include book reviews, pictures of trips to AGP so that I can "visit" from the comfort of my computer chair, info. on possible retirements, shopping codes, club freebie info. and the photo albums of dolls.

Edited to correct a spelling error.

My favorite threads are those that tell about new products being released (of course lol), product reviews, new dolls, and polls [img]smile.gif[/img] . I also enjoy the craft posts, and contest posts, as well [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] .

Posts of doll albums and stories. LOTS AND LOTS of those. I love em to pieces.

I like the offtopic posts, if it's something I'm interested in. I tend to just skip them if not.

I like topics about crafts, enjoying the collection you have, and also conversations about the books and book characters. Also, spoilers (about as-of-yet unreleased AG products, movies, etc.) are always really fun to read!

Edited to add: I forgot to say that all of the above are in reference to the historical line, since overall, it's my favorite topic. [img]smile.gif[/img]

The first thing I look for when I log in is ALBUMS. The more pictures the merrier.

I also love to hear about what things people ordered, and how they are interacting with their dolls.

I try very hard to steer clear of OT. It is very hard though.

ETA: Like right now, I am very intrigued by GreyMst's avatar. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm with you 100%!! I love pictures!! And I don't think there is enough me & my dolly stuff going down.
OT can be kind of nice, like the thread about the storms, seeing if everyone is okay and such. But TOO MANY OT is like, disapointing. I know when I have looked at boards to see things, about ------, and there is 2 threads on ------- and 20 about everything else, I get bored and get off.

I look for crafts first, then albums, then the "on a personal note" type just to hear about someone's day and make them feel better or share in their happiness.

Spoilers!! And pictures from AGP.

I also love the "doll stories", historical referencing, and info on making doll clothes-or seeing what others have made.

I like new releases posts, item reviews, doll restoration stories, when someone gets a new doll, and I especially like albums. When I am interested in a particular doll I will scout around looking for as many pictures of the doll as I can find. I wish I could see EVERYONE'S albums! [img]smile.gif[/img] I have yet to see one of American_Mommy's. Hint hint....

I also really like to hear stories about what our kids are doing with the dolls. Remember when Laurie's daughter, Diana, gave Kailey a nose ring? Hilarious!!

I love the product reviews, for sale items, spoilers on new AG products, warnings about possible retirements *go to phone and order*, and any discussions on the historical dolls!

I also like it when someone posts a new topic to get us talking about something other than anything negative that may have been brought up. This is a good one. Thanks for this post, Joy!

I like album, craft, enjoying your collection and posts with useful info. Also posts where people can add like the "doll chat" and create your own AG character.

My favorite is the item reviews, and spoilers about upcoming products!

I used to really like photo stories, but I rarely have time to look anymore. But I still love when people post pictures.

I also love:
1. Hearing about the backstories/personalities people give their dolls
2. Seeing things people have made
3. Posts where we discuss being nervous to take dolls out in public or tell people about our collections and give each other support that it's okay. [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I love the advance info on upcoming releases. I also really appreciate the discussions of fakes and hope that by bringing this problem out into the open, we can help discourage the practice of selling counterfeits.

So whenever we run out of ideas of positive things to talk about, maybe we can refer back to this list of ideas! [img]wink.gif[/img] I know that I will.

I have especially enjoyed all of your reminders of all the other topics that I have enjoyed. Thanks so much, everyone!

Please feel free to continue adding to this thread.
