The Lions' Pride

Agree 100%. Im a not sorting through 147 posts in one long thread to find an article. Sorry but ill get my news elsewhere if it takes that much searching.

Combine like articles but that is not what is happening. They are combining all articles and those threads are mixed with other threads. I do want to see a new article with out wrestling through the top thread every time. That is why giving new info a life of their own for 24 hours before combining makes sense.

I agree . I've always wondered why this aggitates people the way it does...If you don't like the topic...don't read it.

Keep it in one thread, please God

I know I will not. How do you have one thread covering. Sanctions, freeh report and bot. It is insane. I agree lock duplicate articles but to now allow info to be posted and discussed especially brand new articles is just crazy.

On the front page right now we have more then 7 threads about non football, psu related crap. But for some reason we are afraid to have more then one thread about one of the biggest situations in psu history. A situation that is still going on and changing. If we keep this absurd action of one thread please also include one thread called "non psu football crap" to post all these other threads. Some may elect to ignore new info and hope that somehow it all just goes away. Most want to be able to read new articles and have discussions with out it being locked down in 5 min.

I am with you let's pin less. Get rid of the pin on top and allow discussions to happen. The fact that we have threads about what are you listening to or Netflix and refuse to have threads about bot situation or lawsuits. Is the issue.

Well I guess you know which people's threads to ignore then. See you are ahead of the game.

Exactly. Couldn't have phrased it any better myself.

The fact that we have strong opinions from those in favor of one thread and those strongly against it is the reason why this board is great -- differing opinions, both supported well.

Like I said in the original thread, the idea is to not clutter up the board. Let's try "opening it up" so that we can talk about more specific topics (I'll keep the all-purpose thread pinned for now), but if it gets to the point where we're looking at a half-dozen different threads per day on essentially the same thing, the locks will come back.

Use your judgement; if you're about to start a new thread or post an article, ask yourself if it really needs to be separate or can be folded into one of the others.

In summation -- we're removing the "one thread" limit, but will return to it if we have to. PM me with questions or to discuss either side further.

Well first off it is fun and second off it can because it did as my article got unlocked. I agree with you 100 percent no need to rehash crap but at the same time New articles and situation deserve the ability to have there own thread.

One last note - if you're thinking of posting something like an article, please scan the thread topics and see if there is already a topic discussing the same thing. It seems half of the time when articles are posted, there is already a good discussion going on involving the same exact topic. So please just take the extra time to scan the board first. It will save time and make the conversation in the original thread better. (Obviously this doesn't apply to simultaneously posted threads, that just happens naturally).
