Nubblies Junkyard - Nubblies.net Forums

ninjaface · 01-06-2004, 06:16 PM

I was thinking about how many worthless threads there are scattered throughout Nubblies and how it would be good if they were all put in a place where they would be out of the way. Hence the Nubblies Junkyard.

This junkyard would be much like the Prison. Only, instead of members being incarcerated, it would be bad threads. And instead of possibly being released, it would be a life sentence.

If the junkyard were implemented, there would be fewer instances of dead threads coming back to life, haunting everyone. Not only that, but the better threads would have more of a chance to shine. No more shitty threads stealinging the thunder of better threads and crapping on it.

Is this plausible?

Actually thats a really good idea!
When stupid threads such as the ones faggot for life started that keep poping up, we can just fix that!

What's keeping you from wanting to just delete them?

They way things are now, they aren't being deleted. So they might as well go to a place where they won't be quite as annoying. It could also make an example of what not to do as far as threads go.

A lot of times a message board will have a certain section where all topics that are so old, or whatever, are put, regardless of the quality.

This would get rid of the "Hey, there's a really old thread! I think I'll bump it to the top!" problem.

I like it.

Or... you could just ignore regurgitated threads and the idiots that revitalize them, like regular people.

Besides, there's already a place for old threads to go and die, which simply enough, is every other page that isn't the first page. I really see no merit in this, old threads aren't deleted or closed for a reason.

I'm with victim on this one. This seems like another excuse for a new forum of sorts. Pointless. Nice try, though.
