If your threads are not generating good discussion its because your threads are boring.

Good shitposts
Quote from: Mr Psychologist on January 31, 2015, 04:23:41 AMGood shitpostsHonestly, what is a good shitpost? If you can label it as good then someone else can just as easily label it as bad.And then who do I decide to please?

As suggested by Dustin, this option would put an icon (For example, a skull/crossbones" next threads indicated, either by the OP or staff, as shitposting. Users who would not want to see these threads would have the option to hide them.
Other - my proposed system was in the other thread and I lack the effort to ppst it again.
Yes lets talk about our favorite movies for the 12th time. Fun.
Quote from: Naoto on January 30, 2015, 06:10:09 PMYes lets talk about our favorite movies for the 12th time. Fun. If that's all you can come up with for a topic of discussion, the same small talky shit over and over again, then maybe forums aren't for you. Maybe when you're done going through puberty, you'll look back on these posts and laugh at how immature you used to be.
And I wasn't the one suggesting that for a topic. Reading comprehension.
Quote from: Naoto on February 01, 2015, 01:29:58 PMAnd I wasn't the one suggesting that for a topic. Reading comprehension....Yyyes you were. You act like all we talk about is "our favorite movies" and boring shit like that. That's the limit of your imagination.

Tag the offending shiposts with a turd icon and void the post count for that thread.Doesn't remove the thread, but tells others it's shit, and posting in it won't change your or the OP's post count. (If possible to code in)Regardless of what is chosen, give us also a clear cut definition of a shit shitpost so people can't argue over it or #modbias stuff. I'd give my opinion on what is completely pointless being here but thats for a later thread.EDIT: Why are people trying to argue it'll drive activity down? Shitposting is exactly that, and if activity takes a dive it's a problem with US, not the Forum.
