I like your original idea a lot. Give thread founders discretion over the thread's content. This can work sitewide. If a thread for a big co like AVNT or INTC gets yucky and the thread founder doesn't want to bother, no problem. New threads will calve off, and I have confidence that natural selection will favor the best thread. Threads with founders who lose their sense of humoe will probably dry up. The beauty of the method is that it distributes the workload. The thread founder can kick SERIOUS problems up the line to Jill. If a thread member is unhappy with the thread founder's ruling on a controversy - start your own thread. The only thing we need here is a mechanism whereby thread founders (or otherwise designated Solomons? but that gets messy) have the ability to delete posts, or kick them into a holding area (SI purgatory archive) pending resolution if needed. This imposes upon the thread founders, but I an confident 99% of them will take this on. Those that don't want the job - allow them to designate a willing threadhead or close the thread. Opinions?
