instead of attempting to dictate methods of control over others, their natural behaviour, the methods of interaction in this forum.
Which will result in either some adhering to an agenda that is specifically tailored, or most adhering for a time to it, or an all out rebellion...
If the mandate is to "self censor posts"
and make sure non pertinent dialogue in a post is omitted,
I have no problem doing that,
Since virtually every post I have ever done has some element however small of superfluous content....regardless of the bulk of questions found, answered, or solutions to issues...
I don't mind adhering to implemented Draconian edicts and be rigorously and attentively compliant by doing a complete "fire sale" on every post I have done that contains non-relevant information.
which...would be a 99% burn.
Either the complaint is about "off topic" posts ..
Or the complaint threatens to go into a very very grey area....
Since the complaint appears to be about percentage of data "content" and an attempt to collar any other additional dialogue, either directly or indirectly relevant to the topic inside the post....
I would suggest more a more constructive solution than trying to "engineer" normal human behaviour .
Instead of Draconian measures which will most definitely damage this place, and give pause for folks to post anything...
(and that will be very detrimental...hell...I can't count the number of meandering posts I have come across...and yes they are irritating...hell I am complicit....but I have seen said meandering posts on a topic either hit on a "eureka!", or an "Oh my god! I forgot about "X"! there is a possible solution.."..the human mind does not produce results clinically...but by banter, discussion, meandering down neural pathways of memory...and interaction on this level with others...collar and stomp it out and you threaten this place in ways that one can only imagine...)
Find a way to utilize a better search engine that will hunt for key things pertaining to a query,
code, links, detailed technical terms.
That solves the dilemma which has been the root issue of this place since its inception.
