Loosing a lot of active members? We do not even have a lot of active members to loose, and I think most of them are mature enough not to rage quit a forum just because a few forum games get locked and the community decided to put a slight bit of focus on actual posts instead.
I do ignore them, but its a bit tricky when they are almost always appearing on the index page as latest posts. And it would be nice to see threads appearing there that I may actually want to visit. At the moment I log in, scroll down and log back out because the same one liner threads are on the index page, its not until I actually go into the forums I see other (more important) threads have been made.
I am noticing a pattern, it seems to be the older members (as in who have been here longer) who seem to see the point I am trying to make. Not saying yours is irrelevant of course, its very much appreciated in fact. But after two years+ being here, seeing the same threads at the top of The Den every time has got a little bit tiresome.
And Tora - your post appeared just before I posted this but read this post for the same reasons. It actually is NOT the simple when they are always at the top, overshadowing more relevant conversations. Also talk about maturity "Might as well shout down the whole forum if you shut down the den" is probably one of the most immature sounding things I have ever read on this web site.
If you still can not see the problem, there is not enough time in Emmet Browns workshop for me to explain it to you and I bid you farewell.
EDIT - READ the post man, its not Shakespeare! I never said get rid of the den entirely.
