Over the last few weeks, databases have been popping up like mushrooms... Now, they've also been dying and I was thinking: "What about the next gen of users that would have to sign in those databases?"
Now, I was thinking if it would be fitting to make 1 or not and removing all necroposting rules in that sub-board so that if the user who owns that sub-board can't revive it, it wouldn't be a problem for the newbies who also wanna log on the databases.

So, a mini-database for each user? Sorry if it seems like a stupid question, but could you elaborate?

No, no, no... I mean, remember the threads like:
"The CT Database" "Happy B-Day thread" "What Country are you from???"
I was wanting to suggest that they all be compiled into a sub-board like the Help Board or Board Games where necroposting is voided since they are, after all, databases and when new blood come along, if by chance they'd want to sign the Databases, the owner of the specific thread would no longer be needed for revival and necropostage would be minimized.
Some of them are going dead anyway, but can still be used for future generations of CT's & CI's... *Points at the Artistic Abilities thread + What country are you from?? thread*

Some of those are already "immortalized" due to being stickied (CT Database, Wiki, etc). Others...well, I know that either Comic Time thread was stickied a while back but cut off due to a lack of interest on Pyro's part, so they can't exactly survive on their own without the starters. On top of that, some of these are just one-post wonders and could most likely be solved by fields on each member's personal page *coughagethreadcough*... I have considered stickying a couple of the more important ones to see how that would work, though. *looks over board*......Oh, and some of these actually deserve to die... Good idea bard count me in do you think that we will need to put all of our information in it??? Like age and stuff. -.-
