The reason the WO thread is interesting is oftentimes because of the "garbage and idiots". The beautiful thing is, you can ignore the "garbage and idiots" that you don't like. There are quite a few users I've ignored specifically because of their posting in the WO thread, but some users who would most likely be moderated more often than not... *ahem r0ach*... are quite entertaining to me.
If this were to be applied in WO thread, it would have to be applied in the rest of the forum. I disagree with your suggestion.
Dude this is so typical of you wretched sig-spammers.
You waltz into a thread pretending to know things and voicing opinions on stuff.
But you have proved here and many times before that you are not reading the threads before ejaculating on this or that matter:
Since option 1 is in the lead, I already wrote a draft of a policy change for that one, possibly addressing your concerns:
The Wall Observer is now owned by the forum. The listed owner is responsible for maintaining it. If the owner fails to maintain it (ie. I start getting too many complaints), then they will be replaced.
The thread is exempt from the following rules from the perspective of bitcointalk.org mods:
- Off-topicness (in relation to either Speculation or the topic itself).
- Double-posting etc., within reason.
(The thread owner can and should enforce those rules to some degree, however.)
A warning will show up about the above rule exemptions when you try to report a post in the thread.
Signatures won't show up in the thread anymore.
I can only suggest you take care to spend much more time reading the material and much less time trying to pick up pennies.
