2019*I hit the point that I just mute most people doing progression threads and worthless posts. Really highlights how dead the site is compared to say 2015 when I joined.

I'm not saying that the progression threads should be gotten rid of. I just don't think that they need to be displayed on the home page. If you want to see someone else's progress, go find their thread. The customization option is great, but again, from the POV of a new user, one who has yet to create an account, those threads will still be spamming the homepage for them. IMO those threads need to be contained just the same as the off topics posts are.We can't just 'kill' progression threads because you don't like them or feel there are less important. You as a member are exactly as important as another member who does enjoy the threads.
I believe the ideal solution would be the ability to customize the forums to your liking. Many members would probably take advantage of being able to filter down visible threads. That being said, adding customization takes time and resources. The moderators and site owners already put a lot into this forum. How much more should we expect of them (this is a question not a statement).
I do however agree with you about the petty arguments, self BS moderating, and immature squabbling that I feel goes on lately. That being said, was it really that different 15 years ago? Or are you remembering the good old days through a golden telescope?
why do you think we're not already doing thismod's, start knocking down the petty disagreements.
1. Saying that the mods failed just because you don't like the way something is going on the forums is not in any way fair to them. While I do agree about the petty arguments, this is defferent. If you don't want to see prog threads, then YOU turn on that filter because this problem affects YOU. Same message to anyone else.
I wanted to make the same point here:
Plus I don't agree that progression threads on the front page is a problem. At the time of writing this, only 10/33 of the front page threads are progression threads (I'm not a fan of CubeLite having 3 threads). And I don't think a newcomer will be put off by progression threads. The improvement process is a big part of speedcubing and it's natural to want to share that with others.
Im not the only one with 2 Progression threads for cubing, and one for youtubeI wanted to make the same point here:

I believe OreKehStrah has mentioned before that he had another account before his current one.View attachment 35315View attachment 35316conflicting information
Yet, when was the last time you saw one? The original "One Answer Questions" thread used to be a staple of the homepage. The people in charge even went so far as to merge simple question new threads into it. Now, those threads are ignored. Instead, new threads with basic, single answer-able questions are posted daily and just adding clutter. The thread asking about "one handed scrambles" is a perfect example. That should have gone to a one answer question thread. However, many new users do not know that those exist because the homepage is instead cluttered with forum comps and progression threads.um... you can still use the single answer question threads. it's not like they disappeared
this is borderline spam level...Even though I have like 5 Progression Thread (even though I only use 2)
