Allybee:
we used to have a five-page rule for everything except the picture thread. the idea was that after five pages, a thread is locked, which encourages new threads. people complained about their conversations being interrupted and I can understand that but I'm still a fan of the sentiment.
Professor Snuggles:
maybe not 5 pages, but after a thread reaches 100, or maybe even 50, we should lock it and restart it. Same principle that used to be applied to the photothread.

It's sort of drained the life from that sub-forum but it's a legitimate enough thread, even if I don't use it. Others do and that is up to them.

maybe if there's an additional discussion thread to discuss albums that've been uploaded? i often check out some of the albums on there and really enjoy them, but i'll rarely post any feedback unless i'm making an upload post anyway, as i feel it'd be clogging the thread otherwise.
Eris:
There have been some good points suggested in here. I agree with combining arts and crafts with comics and drawing. I look at almost all the subfora (apart from the WCTs and New ones) and the two arty ones are a bit confusing, and also pretty slow, so putting them together may help them move a bit quicker? I don't think Movies and Books should be put into here, but more general threads, like genres discussions may encourage more conversations in there.
I think the page locking number was 15 pages? I remember it being something like that and people used to always complain that the threads would be closed in the middle of discussions. The Blog thread is really huge, though, and I think people will post in there or the pointless thread instead of starting new threads. And when people do they are told they should go there instead. So people just stick to those threads and we end up talking about stuff in there and if people don't go into those threads then they miss out (I don't think that's quite the term I want, but I can't think of what I mean)
There does seem to be a general aversion to starting new threads around here because they are shat on pretty quickly, unless you have been here for over a year and have a few hundred posts. Even when people new post in already established threads there is an sort of standoffish feel to responses, which results in the same people talking about the same stuff and hitting on each other in all the threads. Maybe if the forum in general were more relaxed when someone starts a potentially shit thread then it would encourage others to participate. Sure if it is just "Man, I just farted. Lol" then people shouldn't try and make it better, but you don't need everyone in there telling the person how stupid and annoying they are. If it's just left alone then a mod will probably see it and lock/delete it and life can go on.
