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.

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)
Agreed. Sucks having to search for snippets of actual news amongst a dozen ongoing pissing contests.

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.
Yeah, that happens from time to time (mainly Inmem lately). But 90% of the time it's people posting new news in old threads because...I dunno...they're afraid of people laughing at their tiny penises if they post a thread?

I like mega threads. We can hate on the Broncos and not have our board cluster ****ed with Bronco news.

New threads for new developments. Like a new thread for Kelvin coming here, then another new thread for him being signed. I did like the title being updated on that thread though and that's a pretty nice compromise between the two... But I don't even think anyone on CP likes mega threads to begin with tbh.

I'm fine with megathreads in certain situations. I mainly just hate the fact that I go to ArrowheadPride for a quick glance at Chiefs news because I don't have the time to click into the Eric Berry thread, the Mahomes thread, the Bob Sutton thread, etc. just to see what the new news is. Particularly since those kinds of threads tend to be about 100 posts worth of random BS surrounding every 1 post of legit news.

That is different....I like to be able to scan the front page and see what thread I want to read but it makes it hard to get the latest Brittney spears hairdo news when its buried in the John Goodman is dead (again) thread....

Try it both ways for trial and error. A week of modifying a thread with knew news and a week of starting a fresh thread with knew news. I'm ok either way. I think breaking news is important those threads should be started.

I'll admit that the challenge in finding the right balance is the question of what is "breaking news"?

Should we have had a new thread every day this week for injury updates, for example?
