Moving Threads Down the Line
One of the benefits of having an active posting community is the attached result of threads moving down quickly and off the front posting page in a forum.
If we stop responding to pointless topics and provocative posts, these threads quickly fall off the radar. Considering the recent fur that went flying and the attendant furballs that were coughed up, I know it's hard not to to be provoked. Still, it seems like with the problem resolved, it'd be great to see the resulting thread go bye-bye.
Since a number of members are sensitive to outright censorship and deletion, is there a way (other than time) to facilitate a quick removal of such threads from the top page within a forum, especially once they're resolved?
