I think it might be time for some rules. Should we say that you cannot post more than two questions in a row, that you must wait until someone else has posted? What do you all think?

And should we say that Questions should be written as questions?

Let me know!

Yes! Good idea

Yes.

Doesn’t everyone do this?
Or do you mean they need to use complete sentences?

I think the majority of people would like to see the questions submitted as complete sentences

 

[Evadig]

I think the majority of people would like to see the questions submitted as complete sentences

I would hope so!
I guess I’m just wondering how you could enforce it?

I'm hoping that with gentle reminders, people will change their posting styles

JUst don't use them if they din't meet the format rules.
"We're sorry, we are unable to use your submission to the Question of the Day because your submission did not meet our format standards. Please read the rules HERE." ( with HERE, of course, being a link to the rules.)

I like the no more than two questions in a row idea. That way one person doesn't spam the thread.

I like the second idea too, but it might need to be specified. (Such as, just have a question mark (?) at the end, or complete sentence, etc.)

I think something needs to be done about the list of already asked questions, perhaps some categories or a search function because scrolling through that list is a nightmare, it's getting long.

I agree. If the thread titles weren't so long, it'd also be nice to see the actual question in the thread title so it's easier to find past questions without trying to remember the date. Back to this though, that might be why some people give the disclaimer, "I don't know if this has already been asked." It's hard to find their question.

You don't have to scroll; you can search this thread:
Past Questions of the Day Thread

I never knew about that function in the Search before!

Same! Casportpony just made my BYC life so much easier.

Let me know!

If suggestions have to be written as questions (Jeopardy answer style - I know that dates me) then people will be more likely to post responses here rather than in the actual thread. Phrases may be more appropriate. For example:
"Favorite color" rather than "What is your favorite color?"

I’m about to turn on Jeopardy, so…
