We want immutable threads, please.

No, not in a coding sense, but in a topic sense in the community posts. I've gotten a few sighs that people are getting spammed from threads they have participated in, but that have spun off in a direction that doesn't interest them.

Although you can mute threads, you may want to get notified for the on-topic comments, and you may prefer not to block or silence individual users.

My suggestions
- If you want to change the topic of a thread - create a new thread
- If you want to change the angle of the topic, reshare the old post, perhaps with a quote of the comment you want to address, and then add your new angle.

Yeah, I'll try to do the same :P

May the topics stay focused.

  1. Unfortunate that this post is labeled "Community Management". It would have been better to mark it as "Off-topic".

  2. Johan Bontes It was written by the community manager with the intent of managing the community. It sits right where it belongs.
