How does one spot low-quality forum threads?

I know there are some pretty bad threads floating around the forums from time to time. How does one determine whether a thread is low-quality or not? Seems a little subjective.

1. Who the OP is.

2). How many pages long it is.

3). The title.

4). If trolls have hijacked the thread. I mean... if trolls have hijacked the thread yet (see 2).

1) You did no bracket on point 1 but you did it on all others

2) You dont need bracket and foll stop moran. 1 or other is ok. 

3) Read this construction manual next time you try and make a list on here and then you can make it right.

There is a pattern in this and you should noticed it by now. The Rock doesn't care about you or anything you say or anything you do. If you have a dog or a cat or even other family pets like a hamster or chicken then The Rock don't care about them either. If you got to level 4 on Zelda N64 then still The Rock doesn't care about it. 

All The Rock care about is his own career and money. That's it.

Goat is a good animal but better for using it in the field. If you need to escape something then it's better to use something fast like a horse or even sometimes a donkey.

              We can stop all this nonsense about low quality threads by implementing the following idea that I suggested to Eric a while back regarding all new members, who cannot post in the main forums until they agree to sign this;                                                                I ___________(state your name), do solemly swear to protect and defend all threads of chess.com against all enemies foreign and domestic, and to faithfully carry out the orders of all staff officers above me, to the best of my ability, so help me god.  Thank you and welcome aboard. God bless America!Smile
