Would that be a bad thing?
But then what's the point in Meta? As I've said before we don't need sub boards for every little issue, especially when creating a new one will leave the existing one dead or largely inactive. Meta is the board for complaints and people are going to complain. If we want to cut down on these sort of complaints then just fix it so we can state the reason of the permaban more efficiently and most of these threads will stop instantly.
Exactly, fix the reasons for complaints and be done with!!!
Right now meta is flooded with
- why I have been banned
- get those plagiarists banned
- complaints about the merit system
- bragging about the merit system
- adding features to the forum
- why are not features we need so badly added and so on
If we would fix all those somehow I guess nobody will complain that the meta section is empty and forgotten.
I'm also a bit active in a local forum, it's far smaller, probably with only 10k active users but in the forum feedback section that acts the same way meta does here the topic at the bottom of the first page is from 15th of June !!!!, and this is mostly because there are no actual issues with it. Of course, Btctalk is different and the amount of $ involved here is one of the main reasons but there are a lot of things that could be done in a few hours of coding (maybe more, not a programmer here) which would cut hundreds of hours of debating and mod work.
