Megathread preferences
I've pretty much given up on the battle against megathreads. For whatever reason, people seem to hate starting new threads for minor topics, so it kind of is what it is.
The mods (well, mainly me) have been trying to help by changing thread titles when new info is posted, but I figured it's worth checking the pulse of the Planet to see how everyone would LIKE things to work. So poll incoming, and feel free to throw out suggestions and thoughts in the thread. |

in b 4 poll
also, I like megathreads because it lets me more easily ignore topics I'm not interested, such as the guns thread. |

Is this going to be the Megathread for all Megathreads?

I like the updates to rumor thread headlines as the story develops.
I also like the player specific megathreads |

As the most recent example of the stuff that's driving me nuts, we have a thread titled "Chiefs will be wearing Red on Red Sunday Night" that is currently discussing the fact that they're wearing red on red this Thursday. But that's just one example out of probably 4-5 per week.

It might be good to review who has lost thread privileges. A few of those are people that can’t start a new thread. Maybe all those people deserve to be on the list? But I’d think a review wouldn’t hurt much. |

Chose option 3 but minor updates would work better for minor updates.
But ****ing Christ megathreads are awful. And if we’re being honest, most threads devolve into ****tardery after 100 or so posts. Obviously not all but many (I’m ****ing looking at your Eric Berry thread) |
