    Default Bring Back the Community threads

    This is an open poll, and a discussion.

    Look at the CBR Chat thread. In just 18 hours it's already 66 pages long, the discussions jump from poster to poster, there is no conherent discussions whatsoever existing. People talk from subject to subject, noone pays attention to anyone and noone catches up.

    There is no damage in having "CBR Chat thread" while "I am Marvel Community", "Ultimately Off-Topic", and other "tribal private clubs" exist. It's ridicilous that because one blogger got threatened with rape on twitter and some forums, us common users have to suffer, for pete's sake that blogger doesn't even post in here, why are we taking the bite? I bet she doesn't care two bits about this CBR forum reboot, so why should we, who care about our communities suffer?

    Yes, i am using the word suffer, because i had a good time here talking crap with my fellow Ultimately Off-topic chaps, but now you're taking that away, why? Because you want me to post in a topic, that in assumingly 18 hours again from now, will be 132 pages long! How is that welcoming anyone?

    I'm willing to bet this gets shut down within two hours.

    Anyway, I'd hardly call losing our chat threads "suffering," but I agree we should get them back.

    I feel that only one chat thread is considerably more exclusive than what they had hoped. Not many new posters will want to even jump into that.

    Yeah, this isn't a first world problem but this annoying for sure.

    The CBR chat thread is a mess, you can't get a long discussion out of any subject, because people just jump from subject to subject.

    Dude, you're kinda treading on thin ice here. You've made your point abundantly clear in the chat thread, why make a whole new thread just to complain?

    I'm making a poll, so the Moderators can see what the community wants.

    You can vote too.

    I think it's because he doesn't want to derail whatever is going on in the other thread. It'll just get lost in the noise.

    It doesn't matter what the community wants. It matters what the mods want. The mods want 1 chat thread, period. They said stop complaining about, which to me says - discussion over.

    Eh.
    I said not many. That does allow for exceptions :P

    But welcome to CBR anyways. I didn't the chance to say that in the mega thread.

    What sort of a discussion is that?

    We should be open to talk and discuss things, we aren't breaking any rules. We are simply recommending the Moderators to have second thoughts about their decision, allow community threads to co-exist alongside the main CBR Chat thread.

    Why can't you let us have our communities? The 70-page CBR chat thread is going to be 200 pages by tomorrow, how welcoming does that sound?

    The mods have stated repeatedly that you cannot beat a dead horse over this topic. They realize you are displeased. The emotion is noted and we should all move on and talk about something else.

    I think we can all learn to be ok with the fact we won't be able to read everyone's comment. I cannot read every post on the board. Nothing to get bent out of shape about. Jump in and jump out, that is how chats work. You know how annoying it is in a chat to ask, "so what are you guys talking about?" Nah, you just jump in and have fun.

    Move on to where? All I want to do is talk to my friends about random crap and they're not part of CBR's mega thread.
