I propose that there be a limit to the number of new forum threads created per character, within a reasonable time period.
It seems that there are some who just cannot resist creating multiple concurrent threads whenever something pops into their head, without giving any serious consideration to the validity of the thread and the forum contributors as a whole.
Repeatedly creating multiple related threads in short order is nothing short of an attempt to dominate the forum.
One new thread, per day, per character. And a limit on the total number of open threads too. |

Sure it's useless. However, as the people OP is refering to always seem to put it, wouldn't it be nice?

So I couldn't open a character sale post, and start a corp recruiting thread, and start a test feedback thread on a bug I found in the same day.

One new topic in the F&I (ed: per day I mean) would be good enough, any extra ideas can be written down and refined and would be better for it. This forum does get alot crap ideas and some extra time and a limit would mean people have to prioritize their brain farts.
Would include idea from other forums moved to F&I or people will post ideas elsewhere and create more work for the mods. |

In fact the only ideas the OP and defenders of his suggestion suport are the ones that does not shake their status quo.

Nope. In my case it's because I step back and ask myself, "Am I suggesting this for the betterment of the game as a whole, betterment for just the way I play, or simply because I think it's a neat idea?" If the answer is no to the first part, but yes to either of the other two, then I don't post it.
Van Beyus wrote:In fact any ideas the OP and defenders of this suggestion suport are the ones that does not shake their status quo.
Also no. Nothing shook up the status quo quite like jump fatigue, which I fully support even though I've an alt that's a carrier pilot, and another currently training for dreads. You must realize that just because you've had an idea that it is not automatically original, nor is it automatically a good idea.
EvE is hard. It's harder if you're stupid.

And some good suggestions too.

If the answer is no to the first part, but yes to either of the other two, then I don't post it. What if the answer is yes to all the 3 parts? Do you post it? If yes, then you agree because you indeed don't get many ideas.
What if the answer is yes to only the first and the second? Do you post it? You shouldn't, because games are supposed to be neat to yourself too.
What if the answer is yes only to the first and the third parts? Do you post it? I'm really curious about that one. If yes, please give an example.

This idea is bad, because people can use alt accounts just to post BS.
I don't have a main. All my toons are alts, the only main is myself.

Forum gold had a great tagging feature which I used for exactly this,
the recent forum updates seem to have disabled most if not all of its functionality, though I haven't checked it out since so it may have been sorted out.

Then with all due respect, start your own grande thread and call it "My Interesting & Original Ideas". You don't need to start a separate thread every time you have something new to post.
Anytime you feel a need to present your original ideas, post away in your thread! People can choose to read your many postings and some will even participate. It is your thread to develop. Some threads have been going for a very long time and still entertain many.
Perhaps yours will too. |

I'm sorry, but what is the purpose?
No one can dominate the forums if no one responds to the threads. So unless someone is responding to their own thread repeatedly - which I believe would raise the ire of ISD, they would need alts, which, if they have them, negates the proposal you make.
If someone spams the forums, no one has to respond.
Though, the idea of sanctioned kill rights against repeat offenders in the forums of any type has a certain appeal. |

I know right,
the only issue with it is forum alts,
and potentially outing their mains which is why we can't block people on account level.

So you're saying every character should have their own personal thread where they'd post all of their ideas?
Sounds like an idea! Why don't you post it on your thread so we can discuss it?

Well, let's look at this objectively.
- Do you feel the urge to make a thread every time you imagine you have a way to improve something in the game?
- Do you feel that you don't need to bother searching the forums to see if your "Wonderful Idea" has been posted, usually repeatedly, before?
- Do you feel hurt when no one else seems to see how your "Wonderful Idea" will help in whatever little section of the game you call home?
- Does the above happen to you more than once per day?
If you said yes to any of the above, then the suggestion in this thread would probably apply to you.
EvE is hard. It's harder if you're stupid.
