As it stands now, the active number of threads is set to 200 which is way too many and I think one of the reason slide threads pop up in thousands on a monthly basis.
I think the number of active threads should be limited to [30,50] and I think that this will allow a more organized community, an easier way of participating in the threads, easier to moderate and filter slide threads.
No because that would allow the left to easily shill the shit out the board. They have paid people who literally sit her making shit threads and hijacking others, the high thread count is the only thing that makes it hard for them to dominate the main page.
>moderate >filter lol

system is fine. Only threads that get slid are ones that get no replies like this one soon
Chase Smith
How would reducing the number of active threads benefit shills, the lower the number of threads, more attention each one of them has. The way it is now 60% of the threads are either mindless spam with no room for discussion or /general/ threads who repeat the same thing for months. This is not an efficient way of promoting discussion.
Nolan Peterson
It's worth a try. I'm about to leave this place sucks so much. Paid posters have killed all real discussion.

less threads mean that shitty slide threads will be more harmfull and have a bigger impact you nigger eu flag = new fag still prevails

Just take a look at the current catalog: -10 threads about rimjob -10 threads about the latest meme(now it's npc) -10 threads about bbc -30 threads of"redpill me on " -20 /general/ threads -20 porn threads This is just a bad environment for productive discussion to flourish and it needs to be changed.
That's just not right, the percentage of slide/nigger/bait/porn threads will stay the same but the reduced number of threads will make it easier to eradicate since you don't have 20 cancer thread popping up every 5 minutes.
If there were fewer threads- it would be easier to see the good ones and jump in.
In /ptg/ we have a problem where the OP is like 100000 links and so no one ever reads it. And that shit paralyzes my browser anyway so it's pointless to me.
If there were only three links a day- you would always look at them.
Jackson Hughes
thats assuming the people who make these slide threads will also scale with the size of total threads but guess what theyll just mass create 50 threads and wipe the board then guess ill have to include the eu flag to my filter aswell
Brayden Torres
Take a look at this bright gentleman, can't even read pass the flag and dismisses everything said to him. You have the same mentality as an angry leftist, you just support the other guys. Just take a screenshot of the catalog every hour for one week and tell me that the system works. Nobody is talking about anything meaningful, just mindless spam of preset dialog.

What if- instead of a thread dying from inactivity- it just goes into 'stealth mode'. Where people can still talk- but the activity level is too low to bump the thread. That way the shills would have a harder time disrupting good discussion because it wouldn't be so obvious who is talking when the board is slow.
Parker Johnson
user, let's say 10% of the current threads are slide thread. That means 20 threads, out of the 200 cap. Those slide threads are going to be made regardless of the cap size. If you reduce it to 50, there are still 20 slide threads. Now slide threads are 40% of the threads.
Are you mathematically handicapped, a troll, or actually dumb?
Jace Martinez
Fewer threads will give each thread more attention, that's a given, now if said thread is meaningful, the increased attention should provide it with a basis for discussion, on the opposite, if said thread is spam it will be filtered out easier and not only by mods, but by users as well. This might work as well, people forget that the reason this site exists is for discussion.

See what? Mods are only going to delete shit marginally faster. They react to reports 90% of the time, they're not actively monitoring the board. The threads will still go up and stay up long enough to do what a slide thread is meant to do: push threads off the board. Except now it happens faster, because the auto-delete is lower.
Oliver Sanders
Just set up filters, there's always 50-80 threads that are the same repetitive dumb garbage. You can also filter out generals that you're not interested in. If you're to lame to do that you should just gtfo.
By the way your thread is shit garbage too, and you're a faggot.
Take a look at the catalog and tell me the system is working. Take a look and tell me how many threads are meant for discussion and something productive. My point is to lower the number of threads so that the ones that allow discussion will get more attention, the way it is now, they just get washed away by the spam of threads with maximum 3 good ones making it out. Also fuck the captcha system, it clearly doesn't do its job at filtering robots from spamming threads.
