Holy shit it's gone. I'm new enough that I've never seen OT without that thread, so this is pretty crazy for me.

o7

What was he counting down to though? Was abraker just feeling a bit evil, or was this actually a collaboration between abraker and dPeace?

RIP such a legendary thread, guess sebastian will have to carry on his legacy now

rip

RIP.

I didn't even know it would be locked. I thought he was just going to quit doing daily title changes or if he was counting down to troll us all.

IT'S NOT ENDING I REPEAT IT'S NOT ENDING

Sad 😭😭 rip thread

The first stage of grief: denial.

But seriously, did abraker just lock it out of nowhere?

It was planned.
Anyways, that's a good run. F

GOOD PLAN 😽👍

My thought was, counting down the thread was just a joke, and he intended to also count in negative numbers and probably move on with his thread

yeah i didn't even said anything to him

wait wut ABRAKER LOCKED IT WAIT WU-

I think either Abraker assumed it was ending and acted accordingly or is just as sick of the trend as I am

It was never meant to last

I still disagree with the lock

I completely agree with the lock
godspeed abraker

There goes a good thread.

Alright now let's do it with sebastian's and 173bpm's threads

dont

i don't see nothing wrong with title changing threads, as long as they don't flood the entire fucking page 1.

i think sebastian's/dpeace threads are enough, but if 179bpm does something creative with the thread it could also be good

Hard to do something creative with something that is inherently the product of a lack of it. The original by dPeace was unique in it's own right so it gets a , but any copycats have no excuse.

hmmm, thinking well about it, maybe this is the definitive decay of title changing threads. a thread that lasted half a year.

I dont think the concept of title changing threads should be scrapped and for people to stop doing it, I really think it helps to build a narrative between threads, what I mean, it's that you can link together multiple threads that flow well together, this can be used for lore for example, you can also write something like a short story or a self-contained meta, avoiding having to create multiple threads for each one of them, avoiding flooding the page

if you dont like the threads idea then it's fine, dont reply to it, tomorrow that thread literally will stop existing, and a new one will take it place

this does really seem like a hot take lookg at the rest of replies here, but I really think the hate torwards this type of threads is pretty unfounded, this is an entire genre of threads that can be done in a lot of different ways, like interactive threads and such, the fact that some of this thread have had a rough patch doesn't mean we should discard the idea, in fact, I think we should keep doing it, iterating on the idea until we find something that works even better

I still don't see the need for someone else to use the death of one as an opportunity to birth their own; and unless something creative happens with these threads, my views stay the same.

"OT! thread but the thread host will rotate each 2 days"

i think that this is the kind of innovation i and patatitta are refering

it's not a need, it's just something that is there if you want to make a thread, you're not forced to make any thread or to participate in it, I dont think we should restrict that freedom

This actually sounds interesting.

My main problem with these title changing threads is that barely anyone does anything creative, good or unique with them. The source of the problem may come from the hosts themselves, but there is a point in which you will run out of ideas and you will get tired of it, causing a series of shitty titles with no content just like what we see with dPeace's, Sebastian's, and likely 173bpm's thread as well.

If the hosts of these kinds of threads are dedicated and creative enough, then it may actually become a good thread that I'll continue to keep coming to, cause tbh, I don't think the 3 of these guys are capable of being able to pump out consistent, quality titles that are full of creativity.

I disagree with the idea that every thread must be of quality, if the host wants to ask a simple question, put a silly title or anything to see what happens, they should be able to do so, I mean, we already have people like scyla making similar-ish threads individually, and the existance of that thread is not hurting anyone really, threads and titles should be allowed to flop

To be honest even with Scyla, it's getting old. It's really hard to go 'hurr durr look Scyla is being silly again!' anymore. Sure the threads aren't hurting anyone, but we don't really need any more, since I'm already starting to agree with this legendary article of literature already.

I can't speak on quality too much, but even the responses on title change threads seem lazy.
Maybe it's burnout, and I might need to pull a Polyspora and take a break, but OT doesn't seem fun anymore. Its like instagram reels or tiktok, shit content but you scroll it out of routine. A waste of time.

Correlation to Title Change threads? A shit title is un-appealing, as is any shit thread, you can't expect me to be sad over it when it gets removed, nor can you blame me for not wanting more of them.

I'm much more inclined to like a flopped thread that has creativity to it, take the osu! browser for example, so far it's crashing and burning, but the idea is entertaining and it may just regain flight.

great ideas made by original creators will eventually be used by copycat knockoffs trying to thrive off of the original leaders success

the copycat knockoffs can try all they want but they will never be close in success as the original because they themselves lack originality and try to gain success off of other peoples ideas and never come up with their own

basically this

the existance of a thread doesn't prohibit another from existance, if you have 5 high quality thread, and you add another 10 bad ones on top, you still have 5 quality threads

the underline issue is that quality is subjective, and even if you had a clear standard, you cant force any person to adquire certain habits of creating threads, since most people make threads according to their personality

I dont think this is a case of succeeding and copycats, with the backslash these have recieved, they would backed off if what they wanted was success, I feel calling 179bpm or sebastian copycats feels very uwarranted

Individuals cannot be "copycat individuals", but "copycat threads" can definitely exist.
Anything could have been changed.
Trends can exist, but those threads usually die with the wave, they aren't meant to continue.

I don't know what to tell you, these are copycat threads. Unwarranted or not, it's what it is.

But a title change thread is a single thread with multiple topics, the more low quality titles you have in a single one of these, the more un-appealing it gets.
Sure you have 5 quality titles, but you also have 30 mediocre ones. The thread is now more weighted towards mediocrity.
It works differently with individual threads.

my point still stands for first thing, I dont think it's trying to copy success, so I feel the negativity torwards it isn't really fair

for the second one I meant more in general, like having 5 good threads, not title changing threads, but threads, to express the idea that having ones you dont enjoy doesn't harm anyone
