I just think a short-form, categorized format would make suggestions more digestible and we could come to some level of consensus or points of commonality.
So you want an echo chamber that agrees with you?
The recurring theme is rage threads over stuff that doesn’t matter/is subjective, and 5 page dump of one persons experience with the game. Neither is a very good format for actual exchange of ideas.
And what if I think the stuff you want to talk about doesn't matter/is subjective? Why is their anecdotal evidence inferior to yours based on it's length? Why are they not good formats for the exchange of ideas? I would assume that greater detail and thorough explanation would facilitate more discussion on a wider range of subject with less room for misunderstandings.
I personally, have no interest in seeing any thread that is about ‘the soul of the game.’ I assume a lot of the mature crowd is in the same boat. If I could just see those tags on a thread I can ignore them and look for the ideas I’m interested in.
I am 30 years old and a father of two. Am I not part of this mature crowd of yours? I am not in the same boat and do not understand why you consider my voice to be lesser than yours, let alone why you consider me to be worth less than you.
Just prompting people to put those tags in may also clue them into the idea that people are already discussing this.
250 words is half a standard page, single spaced. It’s not overly short format. This would also force people with the giant 5 page play through summaries to break them into focused topics. There’s no limit in # of threads, you can post the same amount of info.
Twitter hashtags exist on twitter. Why not go discuss it there using those hashtrags and that system? I also do not consider 250 words to be enough and believe it will lead to many people posting multiple times successively to convey their message thereby bloating every thread to a much more severe degree as well as taxing the site itself. Why do you think your personal preference supersedes others?
