>>31969487But one thread for the rest of the board's lifespan? Active regardless of whether or not there is new material to discuss? Promoting tripfag circlejerking and the creation of horrendous fanart and fanfiction spawned from the awful ideas spawned from said lack of new material?
MLP went a 4 month hiatus, and there was still a thread EVERY GODDAMN HOUR OF EVERY GODDAMN DAY full of people talking about NOTHING. Same with Homestuck during the hiatus prior to the 10/25 update. Without new content, fandoms fester and mutate into something more disgusting than they were before.
And you know why moot keeps 4chan's format as it is? He loves the idea of always being able to refresh a page and see NEW CONTENT. New threads. Not the same goddamn threads repeated ad infinitum. Generals run contrary to the very nature of the website we both peruse.
So if we can all agree to endure a brief period of a lot of shit we don't like every now and again, we can get back to the old, not quite as bad days. The days when CAPLOCK_ZUTARA was the shittiest thing we had to worry about. Not stuff on our own board.
