[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7265646, member: 12731"] A suggestion (that perhaps should go into Meta), to add "plus" and "minus" threads. It's obvious you are frustrated with people that are... frustrated by the show, and I [I]did[/I] start this as a thread of my own instead of posting in the "discovery trailer" thread that has become a main ST:DISCO thread (which I can only access using the EN World app). How about letting people start threads with names like "ST:DISCO [+]" where any post chiefly detailing percieved shortcomings and flaws with the show will be considered off-topic and moderated as such? :) Of course, the mods aren't supposed to strike down on every little criticism - nobody is every 110% happy with a show. But the plus sign signifies that if you don't agree with the basic premise of a thread as established in the first thread, you're supposed to move on, rather than dump your dissent in the thread. And conversely, letting me suffix a "[-]" to this thread, signaling to Hussar and others that discussing why he is fed up with people nitpicking the show is not the intended topic and indeed not a welcome one? I should add that I plan to start many more plus threads than minus threads. In my opinion, the frustration you express here - over Discovery - is shared by me in regards D&D issues such as magic item pricing in the general 5th edition forum, and to be honest, I hesitate posting my thoughts simply because very hostile and very derailing commentary has been allowed to remain unmoderated, in at least one case leading to the closure of the thread when any constructive response is drowned in negativism to the point where I got suckered into throwing pies rather than staying on topic. Having plus and minus threads would do wonders to make this place, your home, an even friendlier place :) Best regards, Zapp PS. Let me add a link to the existing (old) Meta suggestion thread on this subject when I have time. [/QUOTE]
