Bitcoin Forum

It takes 20 minutes for a new thread to drop off the front page in Bitcoin discussions. The same tired old multihundred or multi-thousand threads that are no longer of interest to anybody but the sig spammers, just keep getting bumped to push out the new discussion threads. A check for new replies won't help either.

Would it be possible to have an option to ignore all threads with more than 100 replies (say)?

Perhaps see if Mods will lock the thread once the question or concern was adequately addressed? I think many crap threads are opened just to farm accounts, that and sheer laziness.

Agreed. I think the time should be discussed very well base on the number of topics made (every second, minute, hour) which I don't really have an idea since I don't usually post there.
I support this idea. This is exactly the right thing to do so that new interesting topics will get the required attention to have a good discussion. It may come to a point where the OP would bump it for visibilty which is quiet off and usually done only in Martketplace.

The thread I started on Biternity is now on page 4. I think I'll stop visiting the discussion forum. I'm not interested in whether Bitcoin will destro banks - the banks are doing a good enough job at that. :) There are many other duplicate threads about not very important issues, or rubbish comments. I might start one that says Bitcoin improved my manhood because I didn't prune my node. :)

side-note - I am interested in the concept of biternity chains, and I suspect somebody will introduce one instead of a boring old fork.
