I am of the minority opinion that most, if not all, threads over 1000 pages need to be killed with fire. I can't think of one positive thing that has come out most of these super threads. They often are hotbeds of groupthink, self appointed leaders, bullying, railroading, and in-jokes that the group thinks need to be spread to every thread on the boards (They don't).

QFT. It would pay off if a segment of the "power users" of RYL spend part of the time they would be on this site doing something irl.
