Games Threads.

I just shoot past threads which have no interest for me. I like games but don't attempt any where one needs to be able to spell ?. Others enjoy them so that's good

Don't use the games threads if you don't like them. Quite a lot do like them, though, or they wouldn't t be there!
I like to pop in occasionally, perhaps others do that too, and that might be why some of them get resurrected again so get quite long. ?

When you are on the relevant thread, look at the top right of the page. There should be a downward pointing arrow, like a v.
Click on that for options.

^^ That comment was about how to hide a thread, on the mobile site.

merlotgran, I guess you're saying "My gang seems to be full of people I have nothing in common with, nowadays."

Just avoiding the Games threads won't get you the gang you used to have, if no-one is posting the kind of topics you like.

So from that point of view, YANBU, but there's not much to be done about it.
