re: re: DISCUSSION THREAD MANAGEMENT |

Welcome, Karthik.
Threads don't manage themselves, Karthik.
We require the mix of youth, vigour, energy, experience, expertise, wisdom and sagacity to run a Message Board.
WCFC's msg board is a means and not an end by itself. There are a good lot of msg boards in the net, including in Ryze, which are unmoderated and unregulated. May be, those msg boards are rightly kept that way, as the boards themselves are the end process. Nothing wrong in it. But WCFC's msg board should be a channel (of course, a powerful channel)to make continuous progress with the objectives.
I don't want to deny fun or humour in this board. After all, there is a method even in madness. Then, why not it be in WCFC?
The threaded-discussion way of communicating is certainly a great boon. But there is also a danger of serious postings going into the background quickly. Think of it, if somebody is going to make 8 postings in one go. By doing so, he will push all the existing 8 postings to the background.
Now what I say is this. If we can open threads for different topics, people can follow it and join according to their interests. Otherwise, many threads will get only '0' posting.
Hope you are able to see my point.
