I've been merging them after several requests Ozmo.   I had to take a break to make some popcorn and pour a glass of wine for some nourishment :)

I understand why you did it.  But i had multiple conversations going on.  Couldn't you just have made a child board like the religous debate forum?

They're actually not ALL merged but I think the majority of them are...at least this first page of GT is cleaned up a bit.

ooooo...that stinks, sorry OzmO :(.  I don't have the power to make a child board.  Only Ron can approve that.  There have been several requests for a merge and I "discussed it" w/240 first.  Sorry that happened! :(

No.   ???

The last time I merged the threads people were complaining and I didn't do anything until 240 asked me to merge them because he would have rather have had them merged than removed completely. 

This time there have been several requests toward merging and I asked Rob first if I should just send them all to the Z, but I believe he feels it's important to have his information on General Topics as it may get more traffic than the Z.



Rob, maybe we could have a sticky directing people to the Z for 911 threads?  Any suggestions?

pm ron and ask him for a child board

or

just deal with the merged thread

ask, maybe you can mod the child board!

A good suggestion Meddy :)....  perhaps OzmO and 240 could request a childboard and both offer modship. 

I agree that a huge merged thread can be really confusing and that's one reason that a bunch of people requested that Ron allow a "Religion" child board.

Yeah i wouldn't mind modding it.

they can have all their very interesting conversations on the Z board . . . I wonder what ron thinks about endlessly adding new boards?

Merged threads suck ass. They can be quite hard to follow

OzmO, the more people that ask Ron for a child board for something the more the chance of it happening, IMO.

You don't have to be a mod to let Ron know what you think would be a good move for the board.  He is a reasonable man. :)

this is a phase that 240 is going through  . . . if he's given a new board, it's going to be dead in a few weeks/months. but if that's the best soln., then i'm all for it.
Title: Re: Did someone come in and yank all the 9/11 threads?
Post by: Al-Gebra on September 13, 2006, 04:53:14 PM
ya know, it could just be a "conspiricies" type board.  that would be a good child board

good idea. as long as 240 and pals know that that's where their 911 theories belong . . . he seems to be under the impression that he's reporting the truth . . . and then you have toxic . . . interesting threads on particle physics suddenly turn into discussions about Luna, the alien base on the dark side of the moon.  ;D

I don't see what the big deal is. Why should they be moved to the Z board? It's inappropriate.
Anyone who doesn't want to read a 9/11 thread on the General board, should simply skip it.
Have you people no self-control? Why do you feel compelled to click on a thread subject you have no interest in? Grow up already.  >:(

this board isn't here for you to use as you please . . . you have to take other people's interests into consideration . . . a suggestion that might help you in other areas of your life too, you . . . .

the last ellipsis is testimony to my restraint.

let it out!  let it all hang out, baby

i'm restraining myself so that I don't get a bad rep on the girls' board . . . it's my last 9/11 CT free sanctuary.

I was on such a roll battling the CT's!!!  That's ok with me though.  1 thread is enough.  A child board would be great though!
