Newbie, I enjoy surprises. That's the entire concept behind a lot of websites that only give you a slight impression of the content -- by choosing an intentionally ambiguous title or description. Plus, we should trust each other to be selective of worth while videos.

this is a thread about threads with no content, so is no content, content?




There are entire philosophical discourses about the concept of "nothing" - which is, ironically, something.

Yeah...

Thread title:  OMGGGZZZZ!!!

or:  Watch this!!!


:dumbass:





well i can see where you're coming from with that.

but i think if someone has a decent thread title and posts nothing but a movie, their thread should go by.

or at least let it be given a chance to have some content.

its like killing babies just because theyre dumb as rocks when theyre born. of course its dumb as a rock. wait until it grows up a little and give it a chance to get smart before you kill it.

Nah, it's more like killing babies with 2 extra chromosomes, a cleft palate, and half a brain.

If the poster of a video isn't required to put any effort into presenting the material, there is no barrier to entry, no reason not to just spam the board with whatever garbage the RP is thinking of at the moment.

We enforce the "start a video thread with content" as the barest minimum enforcement of the "intelligent discussion" rule. If I had my way, any post that doesn't further such a discussion would be deleted. I'm doing my best, but I simply don't have time to hand out that many bans.

To say that the videos cause discussion without accompanying ideas is not in line with reality. More often, one person posts a video, then fifteen people post laughing graemlins and that's the thread.  If RP can't be asked to discuss it from the very beginning, it's not going to get any better.

Threads are locked as a warning that the rules are enforced, and that threads started without content will not be rewarded with attention.

I could definitely get behind deleting them instead, but that would entail deleting following posts that might not violate the rules in and of themselves.

The easiest way to resolve this is to just add a couple lines of text that help explain what the video is, what you feel about it and something the community will respond to.  Even if you don't need to word it because the video does a better job, people aren't going to watch it without knowing what they're in for first.

I find it annoying when a post is just simply a video. Kinda like, hey, you want me to watch this but just did a terrible job convincing me - backspace.

The poll results are almost equally split between yes and no.
