Thread limit?

[Beardo]

Okay, we got kids on here making 4 or 5 pointless threads a day, so is there any way there could be a thread limit for the basement/Brewster's at some point soon? Like, 1, maybe 2, a day?

 

[oswaldies]

Yeah, I know you're talking about me...
:/

 

[Jake]

Yea bcoz it's not like this is a forum or anything...

Back when I was on TV.com as the editor for Chowder (which had moderator privileges for the forum), I imposed a rule where you're you can only make one thread per day on the forum. Yeah, I think there should be a thread limit on Brewster's, but I hear that the mods are working on stricter rules to prevent spam.

*blows whistle*

Exactly and pointless threads that can really just be PMs/VMs/Blogtree instead

Just report them. They can be closed.

No idea where you heard that.

If they're about different topics entirely, and another user could make them with the same responses, I don't see a problem. If they are obviously spamming for TBT, the that's when it should be stopped. (But, when it is spam, It is dealt with super quickly!)

 

[Hirosuka]

Agreed :/ the numerous amount of threads just one person makes is irritating..but as zr338 mentioned, they can be reported and closed

I think a thread limit would be wise. We should be adding to other threads, not constantly making new ones.

just report them, i mean theres lots of kids on forum sites.
and the point of a forum is to discuss and interact with people- if you don't like the thread report it.

 

[Pokemanz]

I agree. I've been seeing lots of "spam" threads that are pretty pointless in Brewster's.

But then there's those members that complain when you start bumping old threads. :/

 

[Cress]

I wouldn't say that there's threads that should be reported and closed, but they just seem pointless and unnecessary. Some people might talk in it, but I feel like most people will just wonder why would anybody want to talk about this.

The moment we start restricting appropriate content is the moment we define ourselves as a community, and definitions are the worst possible thing when it comes down to big communities like this.
