What I like to think of is the possiblilty that those individuals who hate BS threads would be quiet if the Mudcat did away with threads like this one - i.e. debating about BS.

Think about it - I assume that if someone hates BS threads, the only BS threads they will post to are either anti or debating BS threads.

If this is the case - if you eliminate those particular threads - there won't be any complaints! And maybe they would even leave the Mudcat.

BUT I'M NOT ADVOCATING THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF ANYONE LEAVING THE MUDCAT - I'm just ponderizing . . .

OR: How about we make every BS thread at least nominally about the debate about BS threads - something like this:

BS: BS or not BS & what it all has to do with the rules of Cribbage.

Then BOTH factions could be satisfied (especially since there always seems to be a couple of "anti-BS" threads on the list.

Whatcha think?
