I put this as a reply on AB thread below but am putting it here too. suck that, bitches!...So QotW is 'taking personal leave'. When it returns next week, then I think the 'reply' function should be removed.
This could possibly stop the 'trolling' (real or otherwise) and also the sychophants who drool over their favourite b3tard saying 'You're a genius - yay and officelol / spitting coffee etc'
It would hark back to the good old days when people were only able to anonymously vote without being influenced one way or the other.
A simple rule could then be added so that any post non-relevant to the QotW (i.e 'The previous post was shit' etc) would be removed.
Just a thought.

I also gazzed Rob with the very same suggestion too......no reply as yet.
The reply function is killing QOTW I feel. I've pointed a lot of newbies there and the feedback is mostly the same as the old hands - namely that posting anything is an utterly joyless experience.
This week's meagre effort stretched to four pages, most of it very badly written and poorly structured. I know there's been a backlash against a lot of emo, self indulgent posts but in amongst those were some absolute gems. However, the bad vibes appear to be disuading anyone from posting these days. If QOTW isn't meant to be entertaining, then what the heck is the purpose of it for? It's sure as hell not drawing the viewing punters in.
Waving a ban hammer is counter productive, I don't believe that it's the way to go at all but something needs to be changed if we're to encourage people to post their stuff again. Taking out QOTW replies is the least difficult way of doing this.
O/T should be for all QOTW related chit-chat and as such any post related comments should be restricted to here. There's nowt wrong with making QOTW a slightly less shark infested place, no?

It's a stupid thought, the reply function was put in to stop the reams of shit like this:@girl who mentioned your breasts:
LOL you're so funny you should come to my bash yeah, I'll gaz you lol xxx

Well yeah...That's why I put in the bit about non-relevant posts being removed?
Posts would have to be 'on topic'...If only there was a place for off topic posts?

Fair point...I just hoped that perhaps after a while people would either stick to gazzing or come to OT for that sort of malarkey.
Then again. I suppose people could come to OT and say 'Did anyone see that post on QotW by (insert name here)? What a cunt eh? and it would all start again.
Hey ho - a man can dream. What would you suggest chompy?

The reply function was put there because people didn't stick to gazzesand the /QOTW lot don't come to /OT anyway. Leave it as is.

So QOTW is given a week off, Jeremy Cunt's bell flew off, and the wrong flag was flown for the North Koreans, probably on purpose, at the request of Mericans, to fuck the Commies off.
What do you think important has happened in the last day or so? I've just got up and am clocking the news, so can't really comment. It's nice to see TGB started the last thread, I thought she'd retired.

What a load of bollocks.Just leave it the way it is. Some people are having fun 'trolling', some people are telling stories and discussing them in the replies, and some people are telling stories and then getting all upset about the 'trolling' in the replies, because they're such fucking weirdoes, they can't ignore what strangers are saying about them on the internet.
I fail to see why we have to suffer, because there are people on here with the emotional maturity of a five year old.

I only really lurk and post occasionally, so people probably won't listen to me.
I reckon a better solution would be that the "Ignore" button also means that people you have on ignore can't reply to your posts, basically blocking them. Would mean that you can still have replies etc, but if you're sick to death of people trolling you, it's your choice to remove them from your posts (or not remove them).
Means people can't moan either way about trolls, because it's their choice and they're in control of who can & can't reply to you.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE. (or censorship by the sensitive.)

Lets be honestLegless wouldn't stick them on ignore anyway, he has too much fun with them. But I reckon it'd solve a few problems at least. Most of the trolls would get bored if they couldn't reply to the people they offend most, and would soon skulk back to talk.
And if people get so sensitive they would block people left right, and centre, sooner or later they'd end up getting bored and remove themselves from QOTW, so the only people really suffering would be them anyway.
