In response to the near constant slide and bait threads pruning the fucking board, I decided to make a thread a week ago, asking 'when was the last time you had an interesting discussion on Zig Forums'. The idea was to get people to link any recent interesting and productive convo's they had. Redpills, memoryholes ect. 'Suprisingly', Jannie had a bad case of the cheetos and done what he does best to it. And I ended up getting a nice involuntary break from Zig Forums...
But it got me thinking, would the board benifit, say, at the end of the day someone making some sort of 'daily best of pol' thread, where anons link any potentially worthwhile threads to read incase anyone missed them? Obviously there are currently other ways to deal with this issue but maybe this might be a good way to get some good threads read by those that just browse Zig Forums rather than the archives ect.
Needles to say anyone could make these threads, so long as they all have a common naming theme so they are easily findable. Thoughts lads???
Yeah, I was thinking if anyone just threw these up once a day maybe it might help us filter infomation better.

Ideas are worthless unless you work at achieving it. Everyone has an idea. Ergo, you make the threads and make it happen or you don't and fuck off.
Thomas Phillips
Eh, I was mainly looking for a good naming theme for the treadsmore then anything, so people know what to search. Just testing the waters on the idea aswell.

Is thia a reference to red alert 1?? Greek bro is based, dont be mad at mah boi
Zig Forums is the low effort posting, angsty, frequently contradictory, consistently inconsistent place it is because there is no reason to use your brain here. anything you type is anonymous and will be forgotten in a day.
to reward people for effort, to reward posters for consistent rational thought, to acknowledge those that did the work to understand what they are talking about is to fundamentally change what Zig Forums is.

I mean we've got the big ones already > 9/11 > Pizza > Hall of cost > Frankfurt School > Central bank shareholders
The issue isn't getting today's news out. It's digesting years of redpills into a coherent form and then getting THAT out without getting suicided, slid, false-flagged, or controlled-oppositioned
I think that's more a phase 2 plan. I wouldn't even know where to begin. Zig Forums needs to do something about itself 1st and foremost. This is sadly trueBut if we can make Zig Forums easier and more time efficent to gather infomation we will all be better for it. Unforunetly Zig Forums on Zig Forums is the goldilocks zone for user base, popularity and infomation as of now and it deserves to be saved.

Interesting idea, but needs polishing
Joseph Morales
Open for any and all suggestions lad
Oliver Collins
Now, i gotta take a piss, then i'll get back to you. Keep the thread alive until then

Basically just get a constantly renewing thread, like the Daily Trump ones. Or the old YLYL threads. Maybe come up with 5 sections: Humor, Politics, Self-Improvement, Literature, Challenging mental exercises, idk. Just ideas.
This is a really good idea OP. Highly recommend. Why hasn't there been a /bop/ general thread already? This place is a goldmine but so much of it is obscure and disappears to the archive so fast. This is a needed idea.

>General General or Major Major Major Major >inb4 how dare you quote (((Heller))) Yeah sorry just waxing poetic.

This 10x. The best way to combat shills and low-effort shitposting is a regular thread that highlights the best RECENT posts on Zig Forums.
Austin Nelson
Does anyone have info on the Ukraine thread that Shoahed Zig Forums for a few hours and then after that, the thread was gone?
You want to make sure faggots aren't just screencapping their own posts and promoting them. That will be an issue.
Anthony Green
Yeah, maybe even get two on the go, one purely for harder redpills ect. Then another for a more general approach.
Yeye, I haven't slept all day so I am hanging on just about, you anons are gunna have to keep this running soon though if you want to discuss it further as I'ma pass out soon.

So, my thoughts in an incoherent but compact form: You need a clear goal as to what to expect from this thread/general. If you want a recap general, that's not gonna work directly, you need to get to it from a different angle. General general /gg/ should be reserved as a hub for ongoing generals, so the information network is more densely connected. You need an archive general of sorts, something with new information or breakthroughs, not regurgitated shit. You need to work on: 1. The branding 2. The formatting 3. The theme of the general 4. Pioneers who will work with you More thoughts coming, but i'm too lazy to write it all out.
