~Beyond the Border~ > The Special Anniversary Board
Thought on threads in Rika's Garage.

Maybe just have a sticky for "have an idea? share it here!" and collect all the junk threads into that. Some ideas are worth sharing, but obviously unless there's actual work completed I don't think it deserves its own thread.

Exactly what I had in mind. Restrict project threads, and make a collective idea thread. When someone can show you that they've got some work done, allow them to have a thread. Kill all unauthorized project threads.

I kinda implied to stick the half-assed stuff here
Matsuri:
One thread of half-assed ideas would be a hell of a lot easier to manage than a whole forum of half-assed ideas, though... wouldn't it?

Except that's for legitimate projects as well. Things like translation patches or modifications to existing TH games, instead of DMF/Standalone game projects.

This is probably the best solution - it won't completely cut down on Alrisandre-esque threads, but it should help.
I wouldn't be too hard on idea-generating folk, though. Let's not go overboard locking threads.
