I posted the following in the Kavanaugh hearings thread but then thought it more likely to be seen by the moderators etc. who might be persuaded to modify their actions a bit if I post it here;
STOP merging every thread that mentions Kavanaugh into this one!!
For example; Bootz’s thread on the evolution of a police state. That thread is a completely separate discussion from the hearings and highly worthy of discussion in its own right. By moving it here you force us to wade through hundreds of unrelated comments to even think of discussing the issue. It’s wrong and dissuades a lot of good debate that could be going on.
This thread is so huge I haven’t even taken part in it. I don’t have ten hours a day to dedicate to it
Yup, I understand that. It seems to be getting a little willy nilly to me and several that deserved to stand on their own just got shoved in there. That’s all, thank you,
So delete some of them, I just think it’s gone too far. Not a big deal, but frustrating when there were some that I found very intriguing but too arduous to discuss when mixed in with hundreds of unrelated posts.
And it’s not like we have an over abundance of threads here. Nothing falls off the front page like the other forum. It’s way easier to scroll down through topics than through a hundred or more replies in the kav thread. JMO.
I don’t understand why one massive thread is better than lots of threads that may or may not overlap. It’s not like it’s improving site traffic to merge related topics into one mega topic. It’s frustrating and causes a loss of interest to sift through everyone else’s side discussions.
I don’t get the argument that Kav threads clutter the board, when Hannity Bot does the exact same thing.
Yes. I understand that it’s his site, so he can do whatever he wants, but it’s easy enough to scroll through the active threads. The board even shows me which threads haven’t been commented on since my last visit.
