The Pointless Thread?
« on: November 28, 2019, 12:24:15 PM »
This is about the Endless Thread. Does it have a point? Maybe it is a way if creating traffic on the site in which case it does.

I thought it was a bit of a distraction to keep people amused prior to the season starting and would be taken down after that but there have been about 80 pages since then with probably no more than 25 contributors in total.

I realise it is popular with the handful of people who contribute regularly but I'd rather it didn't appear when I'm looking through the latest posts I haven't yet read.

Can it be kept as a sticky rather than in the main body of posts please. That would solve my issue and still making it available to those that want it.

Rather annoyingly there is a thread about Sarries and salary cap that is currently a sticky, which would be much easier to read latest posts if it were in the main body instead. Can that be swapped round too please.

I totally agree on the Endless Thread.  Quins had one on their Sportsnetwork site for years and it was bloody annoying.  Please park.

I think the Sarries thread may become an endless one as well.

I don't give a stuff about who they are playing as long as they lose so comments on who played well/badly irrelevent to Wasps unless against us.

If people don't post in it it will fall off by itself, if they do then why would we hide it?

I wasn't suggesting hiding it at all, just making it a sticky so navigation is easier if you don't want to be bothered with it. Surely that would be easy for a moderator to do.

I don't get it, how does a thread you don't wish to engage in be a nuisance?
