Open a selfmoderated thread and do it yourself? I doubt any of the mods has time for something like that, no matter how usefull or interesting it might be.
If I do so, Shorena, I would have to invest a huge amount of time to read a large bulk of the posts in the forum daily - not to mention constantly bumping the thread to keep it visible. I believe mods, who patrol their assigned sections, would be more suited for such a task. They could also pin such a thread.

Hmm isnt the idea that others can also contribute to it? Maybe I got it wrong, but the thread you linked was filled with posts from different people. It might be a lot of work in the beginning, but I think as it gains more popularity it will be easier as more and more contribute (hopefully).
You make a good point there, Shorena. Will give it some thought.

Edit: I initially read your nick as Sharona, and I was my humming The Knack's My Sharona as I typed the above.

Whenever I hear that song I see Winona Ryder embarrass Ethan Hawk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvhw-uAzbVc
Nice clip. I think I still have it on my external drive. Might revisit it later. Had a huge crush on Ryder back then. The soundtrack of Reality Bites (which incidentally, is really great with its eclectic and edgy mix of tracks) had a gorgeous pic of Winona in pigtails in the inlay.

In the coolest and most awesome forum in the known universe, Red and White Kop (RAWK), there's a thread called Some quality/important posts you may have missed. Started by a mod five years ago (yes, royhendo's mustache is real), the thread has proven to be an exceptionally useful one for many members. With literally thousands of new posts being made daily, it is easy to miss out on some truly great ones. The thread collates worthy posts so as many people as possible may get to read them.

I think a similar thread would be useful here. There are gems that disappear under an avalanche of pointless one-liners. Perhaps a mod can start and manage such a thread in a couple of sections (the Alt section could really use one). Owing to the commercial nature of this forum, posters obviously can't be allowed to post in the thread - only mods and admins should be authorized to do so. The objective should always be quality, as opposed to quantity.
