I propose that we have a new section called ... "Ridiculous Threads". All initial posts in any thread get as "Ridiculous - Yes/ No" voting button. If enough yes votes then thread automatically moved to the "Ridiculous" section. Thread updates would not be shown on Active Topics. Or perhaps as well as an ignore button for specific users we could have one for threads too.

There.

Glad I got that off my chest

Does this thread get to be labelled as Ridiculous for suggesting (several) incredibly complex modifications to a packaged forum system that X-fade etc would probably have no time to even look at implementing?

By all means ... although I think maybe the sarcasm indicator () cancels out the need to do that ...

Might just want to add it to my brainstorm on new moderation of tmo. I already have something about a section that threads will be banished to if they are useless junk.

This is a great idea.

My problem is this.....




I just find trolls so cute and cuddly and they taste delicious spread on toast!
