Viewing a single comment thread. View all comments

leftous OP wrote

That is a good idea to automate the threads.

why do we need a seperate voting thread and a suggestion thread? If we just require that all top level comments be suggestions of a single text, is it bad to have additional comments?

My reason for that is so each option gets equal exposure. Whoever posts in the thread first will basically have the advantage of more people seeing their choice.

Another reason is to prevent the forum from being slid by discussion, making it less likely that users see the lower and later suggestions.
