Megathread Megathread. History of the megathread, what is a Megathread, how do you use one, important Megathreads of the past
Make the Peepeepoopoo Megathread. The body of the post is just the “peepee” and the “poopoo”
What about some CIA/FBI real conspiracy stuff that not many people know about?
For example, how about that time the FBI pretty brazenly assassinated Puerto Rican independence leader Filberto Ojeda Rios?
In my opinion, this stuff makes pretty good mega thread material and I’d love to see more of it. Maybe I should sign up to do some.
Just write about one of your hyper-fixations. We all have at least one here. Life's too short not too.
that was the plan, yes, but what exactly do i do? do i just post a thread, call it megathread, and everyone agrees "yep, that's the megathread"?
Exactly you got it a megathread is basically a write-up with the template under it
okay cool and good. thank you
in other questions: is there a specific time of day I should post it?
Usually some time adjacent to UTC 0:00? Unwritten but try to aim for that block (0:00 and a couple hours after?) to give the other mega enough spotlight but also to not have people wondering where the mega is.
Post it and it should get pinned. Idk if you have to message a mod or what,.
Do you mean you don't know what you want the subject of your thread to be or you don't know how to get the proper format?
I mean I have no idea where the fuck the "post megathread" button is. How physically do I make a megathread?
So navigate to the megathread that's currently up there, click on the three dots at the bottom right of the post that says "more" and a document will appear. Click the document, which will give you the text only version of the post. Copy the text, including the links and emotes, delete the information from the previous post (except for the links) and then create your post above the links. Add your post in the comm you wish to create it in and title it "something, something" megathread or a clever title of some sort. After you do that a mod will sticky the post then rip your notifications.
It's similar to what @Commander_Data said, but you should copy the megathread template from here: https://hexbear.net/post/187864
Once you tag all the comrades in a first comment, an admin will come through shortly thereafter and make your new mega "official", but tagging the "nerd call" is kind of how we kick things off.
I'm in charge of organizing the mega these days, so just let me know if you have any questions or need help!
Make it about the obscure children's tv show Dave the Barbarian.
