The STHs had a "sneak preview" midseason that was basically a glorified marketing presentation where they just rehashed the stuff that had already been publicly available. They mixed that with 04 nostalgia (again). After I told my STH rep it was a waste of time, he said that a lot of STHs felt the same way but that there was a decent chance we would have a second event with more substantive info in the Fall.
These CP rabbit holes are legendary. I love popping open a thread and actually having no idea what I'm about to read.

Totally agree, except that I have trouble remembering which thread the off topic conversation is going on in, and have to open them all to find it again haha.
Y'know, I was thinking about this and the "thread derailment" talk more, and it occurred to me, why are we fighting the current here? Rather than expending so much energy on trying to keep people on subject, why not program some sort of AI title generation code where the thread title is modified to an average subject of the last 20 posts in the thread or something?

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
Front page is all thread titles about rebuild or no rebuild, mark jankowski, and talk about forum etiquette with one single one about cper bowel habits.

Feigning surprise when a thread goes off topic and then posting about getting back to the topic without actually providing anything related to the topic to talk about is as much a CP meme as anything else.
We can’t take that away from people.
