Sticky suggestion
« on: December 02, 2012, 02:14:02 PM »
Reading this post:

me too...

as well  there a so many redundant/dup threads too ...hard to know which to post it when there are so many

Anyone know if there is already a thread about Morgana's Athame? The one that Lea received at Bianca's party and that infected her? I wonder what happened to it and if there is a thread discussion out there already.


Made me think.  We have a great group here, and if we had a sticky topic dedicated to "could someone help me find a recent topic about this subject that I am burning to talk about?"  It would both help cut down on duplicate topics, and increase the awesome sense of community we have here.

It would be less of a big deal during the slower periods between releases.

It seems a lot worse this year than last year. Have you considered not letting new members open new topics until they had made 100 (or whatever) in other peoples topics?

That bar is kinda high.  If such a policy were implimented I'd say 5-10 would be enough.

Also, unfortunately, the new sticky is a day old with only 68ish views.

mm, perhaps only in the DF spoilers section? Because new people wants to open introduction threads and things like that. And Serack, there is a need to announce the new sticky.

one would hope the sticky would be it's own announcement...  I dunno what else I could do to "announce" it.  Any separate topic I made in the spoilers section would kinda be counter intuitive, seeing as to how the point is to reduce the number of topics in the clutter.

I think we should mention it in some of the threads where we participate. I'll do it when I can/remember

I could link to it in the Announcements section, if that would help.

It actually seems to have gained some traction in the past day or 2.  It is likely that as concious members like Dina become aware of it and nudge new members towards it, it might gain critical mass on it's own :)
