This happens every year. The whole board is totally obscured by the day to day "countdown" threads.
Could we like at least delete each one of those after a couple of days so that the actual football part of the board isn't obscured by all that chaff?

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

You just don't like them because you cannot shoehorn in some sort of political shit. Get a life bitch.

Not a big fan of them myelf. But there are others who seem to get their jollies over them. So I can live with it.

I say let's do more countdown threads. Not just every day, but every hour.

I dislike it when someone comes along and catches up on their school for the last week or 10 days and bumps the shit all up so I just close em' to stop that.
If the mods here want to do that then I say do it but I ain't forcing it on anyone. I defer to them on the matter.

I do like the comedy of the new countdowns though.

To answer the thread question, no, we absolutely are not deleting the threads.

How about the 5,000 Trump threads clogging up the political board? Can we go through and purge those?

Re: Could we delete the "countdown" threads at some point?
I'm not saying I not to do them at all. I'm just saying to maybe after 10 days or so delete each one. So like you can do a "61 days" thread but then 10 days later maybe delete that one to keep things cleaned up.

OR, you could post more FCS news and the "clogging" problem would be a non-issue.JohnStOnge wrote:I'm not saying I not to do them at all. I'm just saying to maybe after 10 days or so delete each one.

How many ways would you like me to tell you "no"? Cuz that's the only way you are going to get it.JohnStOnge wrote:I'm not saying I not to do them at all.

No.
If you really feel the need to quench the thirst of cleaning things up and organizing them possibly go buy yourself a chalkboard and write "ursus told me not only "no" but "fuck no"" on that board and then take an eraser and wipe it away. Hope that helps.

What are these countdown threads that you are talking about?
These signatures have a 500 character limit?
What if I have more personalities than that?

Something about Trump and how Bandl wants more countdown threads for inane topics.Cluck U wrote:What are these countdown threads that you are talking about?

Those countdown threads should be deleted by the day, best case scenario. On the other hand it's kind of like censorship.

Re: Could we delete the "countdown" threads at some point?
If we got rid of the countdown threads (and this one), I think I counted that the first page would include threads that were last posted on more than 2 months ago. It's not like you are missing anything because of the abundance of countdown threads.
