I_wesley125 393 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 (edited) 20 posts is too low I think. Too many threads get hot and it essentially makes the feature pointless. If (for example) it was 50 not as many (possibly low quality) threads would be given the "HOT" tag as they are now and the feature would be much more practical.

Pinkazoid 3,493 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 lol I was thinking about the same thing when I first joined xD :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordfishtrombone 384 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 What does it do anyway? I think it should be number of posts in a given time rather than posts overall, to call it "hot". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas 2,873 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 I was thinking maybe a certain number of posts within a certain amount of time, and also based on how old the thread is. Like say, a thread is 5 minutes-old, and within those 5 minutes it has gotten, like say 9-10 replies. That would be quick enough for it to be a "Hot" topic, in my opinion. My journey in the fandom started on April 5, 2012. I joined here on April 24, 2012. Where that journey is headed now, who knows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gone ahead and raised it to 50. 7 Avatar credit: robinrain8 Signature credit: Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokuc 8,174 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 Awesome! I've actually thought about this since I joined, like Pinkazoid said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave247 568 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 I noticed this this a while ago and totally forgot about it because essentially its not that important to the workings of the forum as it has no real impact on anything but I too am glad that is has been done.

Aureity 3,055 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 Seems like a good idea. Most threads do tend to get 20 posts anyway. Not every single thread should be a "hot" one A lil' Catherine <(^.^)> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezynell 2,037 May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 (edited) I think I agree. I've gone ahead and raised it to 50. You have no idea how amazing it is to have staff and especially an administrator that directly responds to feedback and makes changes to his site based on the desire of the community. You're the reason this is such a popular forum and you really deserve the praise you get. I honestly hope you're making money off of this. You put in way to much time here to not get anything in return. Edited May 17, 2012 by Ezynell 2 GAK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
