The Outsider Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I think we need to add another option here of Feed articles being posted only when there are some comments the poster wants to add. Move the feed article and in the next post, make some comments. In that form, I tink feed is a good idea.

Can it be automated when a user commentz, then the feed post is automatically moved to cricket forum? :two_thumbs_up:
OriginalCopy Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 I believe the Feed should be continued ... that removes the personal bias of some folks getting hyper and inciting members into disagreements and arguments just for the heck of it ... as it is, the group is highly polar, if you let members start more threads it becomes more of a point of view war between X and Y. Just my $0.02
Guest HariSampath Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 ^....But thats not such a bad thing to happen in a discussion forum....there must be personal duels and slugfests now and then or it becomes boring
Guest Hiten. Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 ^ Exactly. Whats the point of replying in a thread, when you know the thread starter won't retaliate your views :haha:
Guest HariSampath Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 There are 3 clues about Feeding frenzy :-) 1. feed is finey actually, and and expresses different opinons about players, and can start all threads on ICF under both names without being accused of starting all threads. 2. Finey is jealous of Feed as feed may beat finey on threads per day. 3. Finey defends feed because if feed is banned for too many threads, then finey is next
Desi Cartman Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Feed should be banned as it missed the news of the day ....:omg: http://photogallery.indiatimes.com/articleshow/2867859.cms

Indus_Army Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 There are instances that I actually appreciate the efforts of Feed (& subsequently the efforts of the Mods as well since they merge the article into the appropriate thread). For some of the ongoing topics like ICL's 2nd tournament or any of the IPL teams or any such article, I like the fact that all the related articles are well organized in a thread, alongside the user comments.
suraj Posted March 16, 2008 Author Posted March 16, 2008 Well the majority voted for Feed to go or atleast chnage the way it pulls in news into forums; mods can you please do something??
suraj Posted March 17, 2008 Author Posted March 17, 2008 18 of 25 posts in the first page of new posts at this time were Feed..... each with 0 responses in every thread this site will not grow in terms of discussion with such bot- pulled posts
Guest HariSampath Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I had not voted till now on this issue, but over last 2-3 days I have decided that there is a strong case for banning Feed from starting threads in cricket talk at least, let Feed keep to news feed section. I vote "Yes, ban feed"

beetle Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Feed is so impersonal............ Unless feed posts some juicy stuff...I say keep it out!:P
King Tendulkar Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Maybe the feed should be given a quota of one feed per day?
King Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I think all feed related posts should be put in one single thread and be named Feed news for the day. That way posters that don't visit news feed will be abreast of the latest in world cricket and will also not clutter the forums with too many threads started by feed. I'm for one thread a day too.
King Tendulkar Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I think the feed should have 1 topic/thread a day. That will leave the feed to make it a real juicy topic that posters have missed and generate real discussion. I think a thread with lots of different topics will be confusing and will not provoke discussion and posts!
cochise Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Ravi's suggestion is good. Feed should post all it's stuff into the 'Food' folder.
