Featured Topic

Because my discussion topic was stickied, I got the idea that each section should have a Featured Topic. The featured topic should be not spam, a good discussion, not flamey, and relevant and on topic. It will be Stickied for a few weeks.

Who supports?

Re: Featured Topic

I guess I support right now, since I'm too tired to think up any negatives besides favourtism, unless it's decided by the thread popularity. Also, it should be one week only

Re: Featured Topic

DaGamez made a Featured Thread Topic but he never updated past the first day and it's been buried now. Do you mean something like the Featured Game Sticky in the TBG? In that case, where would the post go? Announcements? Which Forum would be featured and how would they be selected?

I guess I support this too. These forums could use a bit of quality discussion.

I don't know how that would work.. for the other language forums, Collaboration, Project Ideas, Announcements, Show and Tell, All about Scratch, and basically anything else other than Miscellaneous, it wouldn't. Could you please explain how you're planning to do this if it does get through?

I disagree - plenty of good discussions happen in all of the forums. Depending on how active the forum is, the featured topics can change at different intervals. For example, Miscellaneous Featured Topics could change every few days, whereas All About Scratch could change every week or two.

That long for All About Scratch? It should be every few days also.  wink

Hmm... what's the benefit in having Featured Topics? I don't see it - sorry if I'm being very silly... ^_^

Re: Featured Topic

I think there is one, since wii has a topic about what you want to be when you grow up.

The featured topic curators are the moderators, since they can sticky and unsticky topics

It's a fun, interesting thing to keep the community on their toes. We really are lacking that...

That isn't so much of a regular feature than just a topic that a Scratch Team member saw and liked. This suggestion was made as a topic that should be featured every few days, I think.

Re: Featured Topic

What if some people abuse this by making multi-accs? but I SUPPORT!!!! I once made a thread that was so popular it would have been featured.
