Well if anything how about limiting the same user from creating a gazillion threads with alternate characters in the matter of seconds, and limiting them per page.

Other threads get lost in the hubbub.

In a word?

YES

When you've been a part of this forum for... ever; you'll see the same drivel:
Eva blah blah blah secrets blah blah
My powerlevel is bigger than yours!!!11!!oneone!!!11!!
Frankly, I'm sick to fucking death of the stupid repitition. I hope to god that maybe there's a place that we can reference archived threads, so we can point out the complete and utter stupidity to everyone that reposts the same fucking mindless crap OVER and OVER and OVER.

EVERYONE: Please, please, please please PLEASE lurk and try to search for whatever series info you're looking for. This site has been around for a while, it'll prolly keep going for a while. All of your questions have been answered before you asked them. All you have to do is LOOK FOR THEM

Please, this site is so open-handed, it's driving me batty. thwe Megatokyo forums are far more strict than any other forum I've ever been on, and I wouldn't have it any other way. The tighter restrictions cut away the dead weight and allow for more focused and intelligent discussions. Things are actually valid there, and NOTHING is reposted. scroll down the threads in this forum alone, you'll see two threads exactly identical.

We need Char. And Crack.

You hear that guys?! I want you guys around!

well.. then we should not repeat threads.. thread starters must know what they are doing... and if by any chance that they are not, and thay have repeated a thread, then that thread must be reported and locked... we shouldnt lock ALL vs threads because of this...

...You're right, Lost Raindrop. But your methodology is weak. We should invite all the idiotic forumites here at www.animemusicvideos.org to a Con, or other pathetic otaku gathering, call them into a room, one by one, and shove a shotgun barrel down their throats like a big black cock of death!

BAKOOM!

Problem solved. I'll take full responsibility, too, when the authorities show up. I'll plead 'Clearing the gene pool of waste products' and live the rest of my life in a concrete box, knowing the contentment of having done something monumental.

That will be one lonely little box, Nestorath. :roll:

Why not just lock/hide General Anime and get it over with? You already have the 'on-topic or deletion' 'Anime Episode Discussion' section. There's no need for pruning over here, just get rid of all of us idiots. One fail swoop. Some might migrate north, but you can deal with that when it happens.
