Mega threads

[PinstripeDynasty]

The A.J. suspension today prompted me to write this.

As a Yankee fan, I like to use these nyyfans message boards as a wealth of instant information.

I don't want to have to constantly click on each individual players "official" thread every time I log on, just to see if there is new news (like A.J. Burnett's suspension, or when Molina was put on the DL, for instance) or if people are just continuing past arguments about said player.

This board used to be better. These mega-threads have gone too far in the wrong direction from what they were intended to do: streamline information so that us fans can find what we want and discuss things in an orderly fashion.

I mean, we might as well just have one big thread called "Official Yankee thread" and post everything in there.

I'd like to suggest to others that if a topic is newsworthy, and you are the first to post about it, please feel free to create a new thread with a clear subject line.

Anyone else agree? Rant over.

This belongs being posted in the suggestion box where it will be moved but as we've said in the past, there are some things that are worthy of getting their own thread, and a six-game suspension being handed out to a Yankee pitcher is something that is worthy of it's own thread. That said, we don't want threads being started about every single thought or piece of news that involves the Yankees, but at the same time we don't want things getting lost in the mega-threads either if it's something significant. If someone has a question as to whether something would be appropriate for it's own thread please contact myself or another member of the moderation team. Thanks.
