Creating all these individual threads really seems to have cluttered up this board and pushed active discussions below the fold. How about having monthly threads for openings and closings? That will keep things more manageable than a quarterly thread while keeping the board from becoming cluttered by individual threads, many of which may be dormant until someone tried the new place and reports back. Some of the threads broken out are dupes of other more populated threads already active on the board. It’s confusing. For example:
You are right. I was solving for the readability of the thread (especially when the quote reply function is not used). and it seems like I’ve created a whole new set of problems. But yes I agree with you a thread per restaurant, especially those with only a reply or two seems to be excessive.
I bumped the active discussions within the last 7 days. Let me get back with more thoughts tonight. If you see duplicates, please flag. Thanks for the feedback.
