Okay, so epic said it first. But I have colors, so I win. tongue

Anyway, I'm glad we are in agreement that this is the direction we would like to see The Senate go.

But I have more. tongue

Well, my thread in the JCC has died. Ender or Mr44, is it okay if I move it over to The Senate and see how it does there?

If I recall, restarting threads after around 2,000 posts or so was going to be trialled as Senate policy following the last Senate FG.

Here's the thread:

http://boards.theforce.net/the_senate_floor/b10320/22022612/p1/?52

I know we resurrected a few long threads on this basis succesfully.

Lowering that number may be a wise idea.

I never even thought about the purpose of restarting threads. I always thought it was due to the fact that the argument had died out or had devolved into a flame war (which I suppose ARE valid reasons for restarting them as well) but I never even thought about restarting them for the purpose of inviting newcomers to jump in and discuss. Capitol idea, capitol. *finally jumps on the bandwagon* "I did it!" /penguin voice.

epic posted:
although i like the idea of having 'sub-section' type threads, not just ones that are all-encomposing.



Yeah. And that's my idea, so you can't claim that one. tongue

Uh, and 2000 posts, to me, is waaaayyy too high. I realise I have a short attention span, but as a JCC user I am hesitant to jump into any thread longer than 10 pages (on 25 posts per page).

Well, it was dependant on the topic; the Iraq War one Red-Seven posted was an exception, but if you reckon 1000posts is enough, that's cool.

OW506 - Sure, go ahead. happy

Yes, but the point remains the same. 250 posts is not many posts for a Senate topic, and discussion would be difficult to maintain. However, as I said, I think I'm representing a lot of people when I say I'm hesitant to jump into a thread that is over 10 pages.
