All Elite is too big for a super thread
 
Theyre on a national stage with Ppv. Theyve reached a point where theyre beyond some little thing. I think we should act like it. Im putting it to a vote. If yay wins im closing the super thread. 3 days.

Destor returning with a big mod decision

"Wild Card Era" bay bay

Lock Jaw 05-21-2019 09:40 PM

I say they only leave the megathread once they get on weekly TV.... Too early to not be in its own megathread....

Destor 05-21-2019 09:41 PM

Thats a reasonable argument BUT I DISSENT

Bad News Gertner 05-21-2019 09:57 PM

This is a mod only thread. See yourself out Lock Jaw.

Destor 05-21-2019 10:03 PM

Too cold too cold

Bad News Gertner 05-21-2019 10:05 PM

I run a tight ship

Destor 05-21-2019 10:06 PM

Someone has ro keep the riff raff in line

I agree with this.

Any shows before TV launches, like Double or Nothing should have their own thread, but I think we can keep general AEW news and discussion to the thread for now.

It's not like the thread is too busy to follow. It may be once AEW hits TNT, but until then it's fine.

Destor 05-21-2019 11:07 PM

I don't disagree, and I'm fine that if the poll goes that way. My point is more how were treating it is the issue. We've got this "everything not wwe goes in the corner" mentality and this is very different from the others.

Jordan 05-21-2019 11:37 PM

I say chill to wait and see if it's any good.

Tom Guycott 05-22-2019 01:02 AM

There is a bit going on of actual note, and I don't agree it should be condensed or confined. Not even with the arbitrary TV timegate. Seems like extra work for no reason to me. If you're going to do that, you may as well just divvy up every fed into its own superthread. WWE included. Hell, with the lack of posts in the RAW/Smackdown threads as of late, it is hard to say for certain if anyone would notice.

Sarcasm aside, this isn't like the backyard trash nonsense that infiltrates everything every so often and gets defended by people who may or may not just be intentionally trolling. That's super niche even for this wrestling forum, and should be elsewhere for the people who actually like that kind of thing.

Destor 05-22-2019 01:14 AM

Goycott has a point. I DONT DISSENT

Evil Vito 05-22-2019 09:26 AM

I expect Double or Nothing will get its own thread, but don't mind AEW stuff otherwise being in the same place until we start having a weekly show to discuss.

slik 05-22-2019 09:37 AM

I also expect D or N to have it's own thread, the BUY IN can be chatted about there as well

Emperor Smeat 05-22-2019 05:37 PM

I agree with Vito and Lock Jaw.

Double or Nothing has enough hype to be worth its own thread but the mega thread still has a ton of use till AEW starts running monthly events or their weekly tv show.

Maybe a case could be made for NJPW to have its events split off into separate threads since it has the established interest on TPWW but then again, probably would be dealing with most events being less than a page for posts.

Destor 05-22-2019 06:01 PM

The number of pages for wwe things are typically less than a page

Mr. Nerfect 05-22-2019 06:24 PM

They're legit, but I don't know if the thread needs to be closed. Double or Nothing will have its own thread and then new topics will pop up organically.

Ruien 05-22-2019 06:54 PM

Ehhhh. Have a general thread for all the little bits of news and such (Or just post that shit in the 100,000 thread). And major news, shows, and ppv should have its own thread. Easier to keep up with things that way.

Triple A 05-22-2019 08:58 PM

I don't think the thread should be closed, esp if the poll is as close as it is (not enough consensus)

But I def agree that there were a few AEW news items that "deserve" their own thread... but everyone is free to post a new thread about it. If there are a lot of posts in a megathread about one topic, I sometimes move them to their own new thread (that's another option for mods)

So yeah I think it's good as a megathread for smaller AEW tidbits that otherwise would not have a thread posted about them, thus would just never be posted about at all if there was no megathread

Blue Demon 05-22-2019 10:10 PM

Might as well leave it open, can find a lot of info in one place.

Yeah scrolling through hundreds of pages is also my preferred method news gathering

Mr. Nerfect 05-22-2019 11:31 PM

The relevant stuff is usually towards the end.

Triple A 05-23-2019 12:24 AM

I recommend this button https://www.tpwwforums.com/images/bu...d/firstnew.gif to automatically take you to your last unread post in a thread

XL 05-23-2019 03:45 AM

At this point we could probably do with having a single Raw thread, single SmackDown thread, etc as the interest in each show is dwindling.

Jordan 05-23-2019 09:15 AM

Let's just make an official Double or Nothing thread on Saturday and let it go from there. We will make another for the FYTER show and the Jacksonville show.

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-23-2019 02:48 PM

Precedent: The NXT Mega Thread.

Evil Vito 05-23-2019 03:35 PM

NJPW Mega Thread too

rez 05-24-2019 08:21 AM

Make a Sports Entertainment forum. That way all the WWE crap can go in there.

Supreme Olajuwon 05-24-2019 10:41 AM

Probably should close the wrestling forum and have everyone post in the Casual Wrestling Thread

RIGHT TRIPLE A

GREAT IDEA :yes:

slik 05-24-2019 11:35 AM

I feel like only 10 people visit the casual forum a day now

Swiss, god rest his soul, I think might have driven many off during his last tpww run when he posted political stuff all day

These forums, in general, took a really gross and off-putting libertarian twist. Bunch of edgy guys who think they are cool and “nuanced” running around.
