[REQUEST] the wall observer thread should be pinned.

[Mia Chloe]

Undoubtedly the wall observer thread is the most replied thread in the whole of this forum. Upon it's age, it has remained as the top topic in the speculation board. The wall observer is an epic thread with over 662,700 replies and 26,324,200 views and still counting. Some may argue that other topics still have whooping numbers in terms of engagement close to that of the Wall observer thread but the truth is the numbers don't come close.

Aside from the above stated, the wall observer drives one of the key aims of Bitcoin investors ( HODLING).
Over the the years , it has also been a source of constant and consistent updates on Bitcoin price courtesy Chartbuddy.
I my opinion such topic should be pinned in the board as it obviously has earned it.

Pinning the wall observer thread will Also serve as a way for new comers in the forum be able track Bitcoin price and follow relating discussions on this forum.

Well, you will usually find the Wall Observer thread on the top of the speculation sections always regardless of it is pin or not. The reason is that it is one of those threads that is most active not only in the Speculation section but in the overall bitcointalk forum. Usually, pining  threads have some important message for that particular board and i do not think Wall Observer should be pinned as it is basically for the bitcoin price movement tracking and discussions.

I agree with virasog. First, it is always on top, because of the traffic it has and the ChartBuddy updates. And second it is a fun thread and part of the history of the forum but lacks essential information. Tu pin a thread that usually contains jokes, memes, and a lot of off topic replies I don't see it.

[philipma1957]

Chart buddy does keep it near the top. Lots of others post.

I would think it gets over 100 posts a day.

[SilverCryptoBullet]

In Speculation board, it appears at top because of many posts make by Wall Observer citizens. It does not need to be pinned.

Wall Observer thread is a mixture of good and bad posts, insightful and shit posts that make me feel it can not be pinned.

Pinned threads are for important, insightful information without or very little confusing information.

[SamReomo]

Whenever, I visit the speculation board I find the one and only wall observer thread on top of that board. However, if an admin or a moderator pin that thread then it won't be a bad thing at all. I personally don't think there is need to pin that thread because it's very active and users who are part of that thread will always keep it on top no matter if it's pinned or not.

[hugeblack]

There are a lot of accounts that consider the wall observer thread to be BTT, and they rarely post outside that thread, so I don't think they notice that the topic is on the first or last page, and even new members who join the discussions have the opportunity to post their ideas in other topics.

[vapourminer]

no

anyone who knows anything about the forum will find it. and its not for beginners although they are welcome.

Agree with this mate cause we are all know that wall observer is one of the most reply Threads here in our community. And everyday or even hour there's a user who posted that thread which means that thread is always in the top of speculation. And also pinned topics are those topics who are very important on that board's such us the rules and regulations the guidelines etc. while the wall observer thread is for those some important conversations and a price update baby chartbuddy.  So I think it's not suits to become a pinned thread or topic.

While I visit the speculation thread only to access the wall observer thread. 

In my point of view, there is no need to PIN the Wall Observer thread in the speculation board but I would be happy if the link to that thread is also available somewhere on the main page too. For example, the link to that thread may be posted near the "News" on top of the page. This way, anyone can access it directly without going into the speculation section first.

I guess Hueristic answer is the way to do that. Thanks to him, I have also went to my watchlist and removed all of the threads from the watchlist. For me watchlist was put on auto mode whenever I reply to a thread it was automatically added to my watchlist. Now, I have changed the settings and no more that auto-watchlist will cause troubles for me. Thanks Hueristic for the helpful answer.

Why would the WO thread need to be pinned when there is Chartbuddy, one of the only bots on the forum, constantly pushing it to the top of the board every hour?

[Adbitco]

I also think the same although I hardly post over there but at most times I do see it at top meaning pinning any post at the top shows that the topic or thread is carrying some specific rules and guideline people should follow in other word pinning that thread might not be that necessary if I say may say since is always active.

True, it's not needed to pin that thread because Chartbuddy posts 24 times per day which's more than enough to bring a thread on top. OP just posted this thread as a request to pin the wall observer and I guess he has got enough good answers on the thread. I suggest OP to lock this thread because you got your answers.

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

One can suggest to add it on the News section of the forum but on the Speculation sub-board the topic is always between 1 to 5 of the list. Unofficially it's pinned as a few others already wrote.

Adding it on the News section may attract new users to discover the thread and join the discussions.

This is the likes of what  I actually meant before I created this thread. We on this forum all know that the wall observer is an epic thread which also servers as a discussion thread for some our biggest whales and hodlers on this forum. Of course I agree to the fact that it has always found its way to the top of the speculation board based on frequent discussions and the chart buddy bot.

Let's not forget the fact that you can use a Few sort buttons on the board which would make the wall observer thread seem not to be on the board. However if it is pinned no matter the kind of sort used on the board it will still remain at the top.

Probably some of us consider the WO thread as the troll box of the forum.. or the forum's main chat thread....and maybe some forum members don't know that?    Even though a newbie might get beaten up verbally if joining the WO thread as a beginner, no one can really stop anyone from posting there about any topic, even though you will likely get beaten up if you try to pump shitcoins in that thread...

I think that it is good if newbies come into the thread, especially if they have actual ideas that they are able to back up and to comment upon current happenings in bitcoinlandia..

[Majestic-milf]

 It's not necessary. You pointed out that it gains enough attention already so pinning it would seem as if you want it to get extra attention more than Chartbuddy is making it get. The question one should ask is if this is done, although it's a suggestion from you, will it stop the somewhat wasteful spread of merits there?.

I think someone who would consider you a troll or having to participate in any troll box should try matching your quality or bringing much insights as I see you do in several arguments the much I’ve had to read from you anyways. You often come with volume and postulates that speaks facts with logical conclusion to each statement.


With that being said, though I’ve only been seeing that topic of recent, I must say, it’s got a lot of activities on it and there is always constant price update. The community definitely need such function since we really concerns ourselves with what is Bitcoin doing. Maybe they don’t get to update the whole topic as some of the informations it Carrie’s would not be relevant in the form of being directly instructive. This is the idea I find the few pinned post I’ve read to be about but, I think it would be a plus to the community to have a price update on the home page of the forum, just like a digital clock.
