roger that

I'm not sure if I agree with this. I think there should be a subforum just for rants.

 

[Dave Blake]

I understand what you are saying I'm not saying no. What I am hoping her is that these guys will get tired of having their post berried in a long thread and give up. If we offer an sub forum where each gets their own thread we give these trolls a forum to make messes in. I am hoping to avoid that.

I agree with Dave to keep them in one long thread instead of a separate forum for rants.

I joined Crackberry around the time the Storm fiasco happened. They set up a separate Storm Rants & Raves forum, and I felt sorry for the mods who had to deal with that forum. It was as big a disaster as the actual Blackberry Storm.

Yea I can see the point of it now and I just dropped the windows phone is like a ghetto thread in there.

 

[Laura Knotek]

I just went through the entire 121 pages of the Nokia Lumia 920 forum and merged everything I saw that looked trollish. I might've missed something, since that forum has so many threads, so maybe someone else might want to check too.

 

[Laura Knotek]

I went through the Windows Phone 8 and HTC 8X forums too. Someone else might want to see if I missed anything.

 

[eric12341]

Wow the posts in that thread are unbelievable and someone complained about the existence of that thread.

 

[Dave Blake]

If the content of the thread is bothersome just don't read it. If it gets out of hand someone will report it.

 

[HeyCori]

Wow, that thread is already at 500 posts and growing. Over Christmas holiday, no less. The hate is definitely strong in there. :grin:

 

[Dave Blake]

We are jumping the gun on some of these guys lets let a thread play out a bit before merging it... Example

I think this guy really wants help he just posted badly. It wont hurt anything to let a thread play out for a page or two before merging it.

 

[Dave Blake]

Part 2 begins today. I want this thread monitored constantly. If arguing begins I want infractions handed out. If people are posting unnecessary content in a non civil manner remove the post.

Incase you haven't noticed I have deleted the first thread. This community Windows Phone fans and Trolls alike will have a civil debate on this topic one we can use to help the community. We will make sure this is the way this is done. I will help as much as I can. I think we have a real opportunity to create a content rich thread hopefully Microsoft can read through and learn what is importing to this community. Maybe we can even teach some people how things will be done at WPC.

 

[Dave Blake]

If you are merging threads into this one please make sure you remove all non relevant posts. If the OP makes a new thread saying I don't like or WP needs then starts a list. I need you guys to delete all the posts after the OP before merging the threads. I want Part 2 to be a clean list of user needs in WP8.

 

[Dave Blake]

Time to stop merging the threads. What I want to do now instead of merging the threads together is. Instead just close the new threads. Here is an example.

When we get winning *****ing threads like that one let's just close the thread and post in thread that we already have a thread for this content and post a link. If the OP wants to discuss the content farther he can repost in the correct place.

 

[Daniel Ratcliffe]

Is the plan still close and show them the Why I don't like WP thread?
