I don't like epic threads.
« on: August 10, 2007, 10:44:29 AM »
They're annoying. I don't like wading through them. Sometimes they're necessary - having a big thread about Metroid Prime 3 in the Wii section is preferable to having 5,000 threads about Metroid Prime 3 in the Wii section. But there are some epic threads that exist that I wish didn't. Like the Wii sales thread - I think there should be a new Wii sales thread every week. And the Virtual Console thread - why not have a VC sub-forum, so that we could have a seperate thread for each VC game of note? And the updates thread in the new Smash Bros. subforum - I'd prefer a seperate thread for each update.

Agree/disagree?

The more threads there are, the more quickly they'll be buried and forgotten.

The thing is, they aren't really designed to be read in their entirety.  It's more of a chat thread... read the last page, figure out what is being talked about at that moment, and join in.

Well, I do like the VC sub-forum idea.  I'm on the verge of creating a Galaga '90 high score thread.

VC sub forum is a good idea

But I don't think enough people actually discuss Sales to warrant a new thread every single week.
But maybe a Monthly Sales thread could work, it would also make looking back for sales #'s a whole lot easier than trying to guess which of the 60 something pages the week you are looking for is on.
