Classics

The forum in which to talk about the forums. A good place for suggestions or gripes.

Classics

Post by Shiny »

We should have a Classics section, where the most controversial and or longest threads after a certain number of responses get moved after they drop off of the main page (signaling a lack of activity). The threads would then be locked and can be easily accessed for nostalgic purposes within the Classics (or whatever it'd be called) section.

Not a bad idea. I know lots of places do that. Might be cool.

Yeah, I totally nick'd the idea from another message board that I used to post on. It should be done here.

nah....i think classic/famous threads should be only remembered in memory. Only people who were around to see/experience it can reminisce.

Good point. However, the only reason why I feel that it shouldn't be put up is just for the sake of having another section created.

If we somehow forgot those memories, we could just go to the forum and be like" Oh yeah..." I think its a good idea.

Once the threads are moved there, they would probably need to be locked so they would stay classic. I wouldn't mind making this forum, but we'd all have to decide which threads to put there.

Yeah, I'd say the ones with the most replies automatically means that it was a big of enough deal to be "classic" and in everyone's heads. a lot of threads make it to page 2...maybe it should be 3 or 4 pages. also, anything with petcat in it.

It would have to be much more than 2 pages. Atleast 3 or 4.

I donno... This whole idea seems not so great anymore. Too much work involved AND sometimes people like to revive old threads from the dead and start posting in them again... :?

Easily Jordan's "Do you think Element would blow Radiohead's singer?" thread. It's so fucking hilarious.

Yeah I'd say it's a classic... But then that would mean it would have to be locked, and future generations wouldn't be able to vote on it... :?

So I say keep it open! :twisted:

The threads don't dissapear when you keep using them. I think it would actually be cool to keep classics around, and leave the convo open. Just put 'em in their own sub-forum to deem them 'classic'.
