Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-25991365-20140913230946

I usually discuss ideas like these in chat before I outright make a thread but  this can't wait. I've been holding these views in too long.

Having seen countless nonsense in the comments section, I'm beginning to think we don't need it at all.

A lot of things that people would counter are a good reason to keep them, can easily move to the Forums.

Geniune discussions about an episode can have an entire thread dedicated to them and we can easily moderate it by removing replies that don't pertain to the thread in question. You probably forget this can apply to airdates too. Threads will allow us to be more concise.

Most of it seems to be filler and I'm tired of it.

Plus so many users ignore necroposting in the comments section and if it was a thread we could simply close the thread and take action against them, be it a warning or a ban.

I think we  should all vote on keeping it or not and then see how that goes.

I really don't see the point in the comments section sticking around any more but if you'd like to continue to see users making off-topic and spammy comments then go ahead. You'll get annoyed with it eventually.
