End of the day,
whether you agree with me or not - this ain't exactly working is it?

So now I have a suggestion for qotw.

How do we fix it?

Get rid of it

That's a pretty irresponsible thing to say to someone who's clearly teetering on the brink

It's quite simple.
Tell a concise, literate, coherent, amusing and, ideally, believable story.

That probably still wouldn't work, would it?

It's not a question of fixing QOTW.
QOTW is the sum of its parts, which broadly speaking are only the posts.

So, the posts need fixing. Few of them relate to the questions any more.

Be less shit is actually as good an answer as there is. The problem is it's the shit posters demanding that there is less shit posted.

How we fix it
is very simple.

Basically, you can't respond to a post until you've posted yourself on that week's entry.

If the entry you post is obviously shit (an in-joke, a dreadful pun rather than a good one) or just complete nonsense - it gets removed and your right to reply to QoTW for that week is suspended.

If your reply is just "LIES" or any form of in-joke - it gets deleted. No more responses for you to QoTW for that week.

3 strikes and you're out. Three reasons to delete your posts or responses, and you and your IP address are banned forever.

Fuck up your first post to QoTW by breaking these rules - banned forever.

That would fix it pure and simple. Mods - are you listening

Signed, yet another person not really willing to contribute to QoTW anymore due to the high quotient of wankers on here.

Awaiting the inevitable response from the usual suspects to this post in 3,2,1...

Rather draconian.

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Mon 21 Jan 2013, 13:51, closed)

Yes, well
desperate times, desperate measures. Being unregulated means QoTW is dying on its arse.
(TheImmortalJenkins, Mon 21 Jan 2013, 13:53, closed)

It's the continual moaning about QOTW that's killing it.

( Fucking hell Jeff I am not a robot, Mon 21 Jan 2013, 13:54, closed)

Fix it
and there would be moaning. Keeping everything on-topic would sort of do that, would it not ?
(TheImmortalJenkins, Mon 21 Jan 2013, 13:56, closed)

Or people could just grow some balls and stop whimpering and crying like a schoolgirl every time somebody takes the piss out of them.

Better version of banning people forever
is to put their username and password up for the first person to grab.

You really did come to completely the wrong fucking website, didn't you?

The mods can't even be bothered to fix search, what makes you think they're gonna set up all these ridiculous rules you've suggested and then police QOTW like it's some sore of strict fucking communist state?
You are a shit person with terrible ideas
