Why group threads suck

[BassPlaya]

Given a choice...I would rather look for a post (try the search function), than endure those folks who feel like everything that falls out of their mental ass needs to be it's own thread.

Especially when they are trying to ram home the same point that they feel the rest of the world needs to agree with them about.

CJ? Got very well paid by the Blazers. I'm over him.

Merging threads should only occur when the OP is on the same topic, say, the same article, news, or tweet. Merging tangentially related topics or posting multiple tangentially related news items into a single long-ass thread with multiple new pages of posts a day to wade through buries the lead.

And makes reading through them too tedious to bother with.

CJ said if he was a betting man, then said he wasn't. He was speculating. The Blazers have choices. They can keep Dame and either trade or keep the pick. They can trade the pick for a star or for more picks. They can decide to go young. The Blazers intend to keep Lillard and build around him. Lillard isn't going to ask out, even CJ said so.

CJ added he just had dinner to give what he was saying further credence, like Dame must have told him something....spoiler Dame didn't tell him shit.

CJ was just spouting off for Smith's whiny disrespectful ass.

Anyone here has the right to make a thread about it. Does it deserve one though, probably not. CJ's interview was just trolling...we don't feed the trolls here. We take them out back.

Yeah, I'd definitely wait until the topics died down for a couple weeks or so.

Sorry, but that’s just stupid. CJ was Lillard’s running mate in the backcourt for many years, and a big part of this team. If he shares his opinion on Lillard’s future, it’s newsworthy. Period. You may not like him or his opinions, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s newsworthy and deserving of a thread.

Lock all threads after 200 posts.

If it's still worthy of discussion a part2 thread will created. If not it'll die and can be replaced by a younger better looking thread.

Except no limit on the Melo thread.

So you're mad no one made a thread and instead posted about CJ's comments in existing threads?

Cool!
