I've been thinking about maybe making a thread on gbs for a while now. This would be my very first gbs thread, so it's pretty exciting. To be honest I feel a little anxious about it, so I thought I'd ask first for some tips to keep in mind before making a thread on gbs

The more you kick against the pricks, the more you suffer.
Your first thread will be great OP!

Always use the ATTENTION tag it lets people know ur thread is high priority

if you really want to make your thread a hit you must use the ATTENTION tag to ensure how important is the subject you are bringing to discussion

trust me, you should test it now with a new thread

When ilovebeersooomuch isn't posting, all the other goons should be asking "where's ilovebeersooomuch?" That's what I think.

Think about something you know a lot about and might garner some interest from other fellow posters. Talking about your inexperience in posting threads might be a good start since there are also a lot of other bad posters who might take interest in this topic.

Thanks! I'll mull over all of the advice in this thread while I keep practicing on reddit before I'm ready for the big leagues
