Shit n' Run

[robvalue]

Yes but then you run the risk of arguing semantics over what constitutes not interacting properly. One might start a thread and then have some RL issues pop up only to not respond in their own thread days later.

So, do we give them a time limit or some sort of minimum post requirement in order for them to be considered a shit and run thread?

Well, I'd say the time limit is starting another thread. If they've opened up a "discussion" and then run off to start another one before bothering to reply to anything in the first one, I'd call it a shit and run. I mean, I wouldn't personally want to clamp down on this happening right away, but instead look for trends. Is the person doing this a lot? If so, warn their ass to put some effort in instead of shitting everywhere.

This could then be viewed as spam, I suppose.

I agree "not interacting properly" is very subjective, and I'd have to work out what the hell that's actually meant to mean. Just an idea in progress.
