Okay. I don't know how many times this has happened recently, but it's becoming a regular problem. I come browse new threads, find an interesting one, let's say Thread X, and think to myself, "Ah. I might join this one."
I leave to mull over how to join it, given that it'll have to be jaxen that does the joining, it is something of a conundrum to decipher. Then, next time I check thread x, that same person who started the thread has done 2-4 more posts continuing on with the original post's scene and obliterated any chance of anyone else joining it.
No way I'm joining thread x after all that. For the sake of my sanity, if you start a thread and have no intention to wait on whether or not people might join it (and by wait I mean a reasonable amount of time greater than 24 hours), then mark is as closed so I (and I assume everyone else) won't waste my time pondering how to join the scene. then the rest of us will know that you intend to do something with the thread all by yourself.
Default threads should be open for anyone to join. And left open for people to do that. Closed threads should be the special circumstance. Yet lately it seems like all everyone is doing is closed over and over again, but just not marking them as such.
thank you and goodnight.
