Can someone enlighten me as to when it is acceptable to start a new thread on /talk?
I don't particularly want to at the moment, but I'd like to not get textually kicked in the nuts if the mood were to strike me.

depends if you have something interesting to say.
If you are just trying to move the conversation on, I reckon after half an hour or so it's fair game.

anytime you want,
just make sure that it's not instantly after a better one and that you participate in the conversations (if any) that you start.

Just when the old one dies
don't post when people are still frantically mashing their keyboards about some Noob posting a link

There are no rules.
But my general guidelines are.
- If there is no conversation going on
- If you have something to say
- If you're going to join in on the thread
- If you want to push something down the board.

Could you not use a toilet brush
to push something down the board?

I don't think that would work, to be honest.

You're right
I don't know how I'm going to explain this to our IT bloke

what exactly are you worried will happen if you do?

swearing
from someone who takes the internet too seriously.

not worried
I'd seen people lambasted for it before, and was curious what the rules were.

I'm in a curious mood.

This place is better because there are no rules.
Well none that I'm aware off.
