You know a thread is controversial when...
Forget about wasting your time looking through dozens of pages to locate some drama...sometimes you can tell a thread is on fire just by looking at it (before opening).
-When it's more than 75 posts
-In the general forums, you look at "Last Post" and you see certain NPHC posters have posted.
-When in the NPHC forums, you look at "Last Post" and you see certain NPC posters have posted.
-In any forum, you look at "Last post" and you see that JOHN has posted!
-Any titles that have "help!", "local", "why....?", "underground", "I have a question", "accused of hazing", "PLEASE READ", "seeking" (in NPHC/AI), "dreaming" (in NPHCH/AI), "aspiring" (in NPHC/AI), "always wanted to be" (NPHC/AI), "heartbroken" (Rush, NPHC, and AI).

And any titles that have "South", "Southern" or "SEC" in them. Bless their hearts.

-When it is the OP's first post ever.
-When everyone is worried about getting their two cents in before the thread closes.
Oh to elaborate on Dionysus' response about the thread having more than 75 posts...you know things are really bad when there are 75 posts in a 24 hour period. lol

^Hmmm...I don't recall starting that many controversial threads lately, lol.
The rest....I'm talking about threads you haven't even opened yet.

i always look for a post by Earp or ShamikaT to shake it up. and though i dont ever see it anymore, i wait for an off-color post by Bobbythedon or Rudey.
then and ONLY then do i break out my virtual cooler and get the party started.
i too, am a fan of the "in before the lock." im actually waiting on a thread that controversal so i can use said phrase.

-When people start making posts & bets about how long it's going to take before the thread is locked.
