Fate of some sticky threads? - Blu-ray Forum

jsteinhauer · 01-19-2017, 07:24 PM

It's no secret that the active gaming forum population has dwindled. Though not nearly as busy as they have been, some popular threads still see some support, but in order to remain relevant, these threads need regular maintenance. The threads include foremost...

Trophy Leaderboards
Platinum Brotherhood
Release Calendar
PSN ID thread

The System Software and Tips and Tricks threads should have the OPs updated from time to time, but that's not essential to the threads' purposes and utility.

I've been keeping the OP of the Instant Game Collection reasonable up to date.

Now, I propose that unless we can find volunteers who have the time and motivation to maintain the former three that we unstick and possibly close them. The release calendar is very time consuming and potentially frustrating, and I doubt anyone wants to dedicate the same effort that Derb did for so long. I think that should be the first one to go.

Benny has been keeping the leaderboard nominally up to date, but it's pretty clear he has more important things to do. I empathize completely. I might be willing to try and maintain that myself, if there is adequate interest among the membership.

The Platinum Brotherhood can probably stay alive on its own, if the membership fancies having a thread to simply share their platinum trophy wins in real time, but it's another one that is a real drag to keep up to date. Without someone to keep it up, I think we should keep the thread alive and simply unsticky it.

PSN ID has not been updated since 2015, and I think it should be let go.

To me, sticky threads should be those that are continuously relevant.

I'm asking for feedback.
