is there any chance that we can stop having so many threads regarding these deepstacks, everytime i come onto the forums these days all i get to see is £300 this £300 that. clearly some people must need to see the thread otherwise they would totally forget about the tournaments they normally play in? (would they really)
this is probably gonna be met my stern resistance but i think all they are doing is messing up the forum and lets be honest they dont actually get many posts on the threads themselves.

In my opinion these posts are usuful to both new users of the forum and those wishing to look at different types of game.
however its a forum not like its running out of space, i dont care you'll get loads of people on here from that clique tho all posting the same generic response
I voted that i'm not bothered, but, and dont take this the wrong way Webby, i do think it's a bit rich of you to put this thread up, given some of your past activites on the forum, but as i say everyone is entitled to their opinions.

I have no doubt, without them, the deepies would have died a slow and painful death. Being a slow burner, it does take a certain player/mentality to enjoy them as too many casual gamers come for the quick fix the faster paced structures give.
I love the odd deepie, unfortunately, I rarely have the 4 hours to spare.
The biggest issue at the moment is to do with the amount of new threads at the moment. Sometimes 20 or 30 in a day, with some of the most rediculous, tedious subjects ever.
Most decent threads now only get the benefit of an hour or two on page one, this means it is lost to the archives before the discussion has truly run it's course.
This also means a few days later, a similar thread is started by someone else. This then becomes an ever decreasing circle of quicker and quicker new threads and threads being lost to the vaults.
I have started spending a little more time over in the shed and poker strategy than usual, at least a thread can last a week or more over there.
If Sky limited each person to one new thread a week, this problem would be eliminated overnight.
In the meantime, guys, if you want to start a new thread, do have a look over some of the older pages, just to see if it has been discussed over the last couple of hours.
I didn't read in the rules of the posters freeroll that you had bonus points for starting a new thread.
and yes people are entitled to put up what they want on the forum,
if sky don't like it they take it down ,
webby me thinks you are looking to become the doorman in this forum of ours,
its for us all .
Also im gonna start a thread on wether we should get bonus points for starting a thread.
The only T.V. I ever watch is playhouse Disney, and did you not read my 'halestorm' blog?
I have only played 2 DYM's all day, with little chance for a third.
Another point I raised earlier, we now have 2 luck based threads on page one and the poor thread about to be relegated to the Scottish third division that is page 2 was last used only just over an hour ago.
There is also a thread on page 3 that was only started this morning.
Fantastic comment Hayley, although surely you have gone over the score here! No post is so bad that it should be mentioned in the same breath as the scottish third division.
But on a serious note, as a forum, we should really look at the number of threads that are being created. If a thread was created this morning, and is now on the third page, then we are looking at something in the region of 30 new threads in a day. can there really be thirty different new topics to discuss in such a short space of time?
For me, the answer is "no", but we all know that similar threads appear on a regular basis. New members to the forum post topics that have been debated previously. We need to accept that this happens and be tolerant of new posters. I did the same thing when i first joined the community.
Rich has asked for ideas to freshen up the forum (it's probably on page 6 now lol) and people have contributed varying ideas. Hopefully the best of these will be implemented and this will help to keep the best threads alive for longer.
In the meantime, posters can start any thread they like, and the rest of us can choose to ignore, read and ignore, or read and respond to it.
