Things that you don't like about /prog/

1. The notion of separation threads into 40 posts? This doesn't even makes sense. 1000posts = 25 pages of mostly one-sentence posts?
2. Only 18 threads on the first page? You can easily stuff 100.

/prog/'s inability to accept functional posts of any sort reduces the amount of topics and content available to it.  Threads on /prog/ are only vaguely and sometimes accidentally relevant to the board in general because of this.  Any attempt at related topics are pigeon-holed away and all attempts at fostering such topics are met with choruses of the derogatory "You helped him" no matter what kind of input is provided.  It doesn't even have to be a "homework" post.  We would do much better to shun those posts that can be described as "meta" or "spam" or "meme."

And, damn, we actually need a janitor that cares about this board.

You'll note I did not spoiler the board name.  I am aware of that; I no longer feel inclined to care.
