This sounds like it's going to end up with me and Bunai argueing over how threads are moderated again. Which is of course relevant to this discussion because it goes under how to manage threads held on this wikia.

I will stress this a lot; allowing hundreds of the same threads poses the following problems:


 * Inactivity on all the threads. Most of you have at least noticed by now that as well as being in their hundreds most of these threads are dead. This is not only just an activity problem but this also causes new comers to make the exact same thread simply because they do not see it on the board.


 * Clutters the board index. We have so many of these threads right now it's a frigging wonder the board is not referred to as the "Character Item board". How exactly is anyone supposed to see any other sort of thread on the board when it is literally littered in the same type of fanon thread.


 * Spam. This should go without saying but i've come across people here who do not in fact think this is spam. And needless to say that is absolutely ridiculous because these threads do not add anything new to the discussion as they are literally the same thread with very little difference between them to make way for any sort of new points/opinions.

Of course I tried to make a general char item thread and obviously that failed because no one knows of such a thread because people are too busy making other character item threads.

My point? It's about frigging time people started moderating how many of these threads should be allowed.
