To be truthful, I have the middle view on copycat threads

[JohnKleeb]

- I don't mind em
- Too much is yes annoying
I think both sides to the arguement have valid points.

1. You MODERATE!!!!!! You're a DINO!!!!!

2. hah why no

I am in the middle of just about anything except my personal politics and even then, I seek middle and common ground.

3. Ironically, the copycat blitz happens when someone blasts the practice

Usually otherwise it's just dribs and drabs. It's true that they push off "important" things, but so do pic threads, cat threads, and other "less important" threads. If we were to run DU so that only the important threads got the most posts and stayed afloat, there would have to be a crazy amount of enforcement because usually the opposite is the case. It's not the fault of the mindless threads, it's the fault of the DUers who create and reply to them in droves. We just need to control all DUers.

9. Like my dad always said,

"Look it up yourself and learn something." ;)

I agree with what you're saying, but I always keep in mind that a) I'm not a mod, so I can't speak to the hassle; b) It's not my board, I just play on it. Skinner and the rest have every right to run it like they want.
