Can we also apply this rule to people who post the most off topic, niche threads that apply to less than 1% of this entire forum?

Hey who here likes to play Call of Duty at exactly 8 pm while wearing grey sweatpants using the sniper rifle on this specific map????? Comment here to discuss!!!

2 techniques work well for me
Conditional Close Technique -  When the other person offers an objection, make it a condition of resolving their objection that they make the purchase. You can also use this approach to make any trade - for example, if you want them to watch a promotional video, offer a cup of coffee. Always, phrase it in the form 'If I...will you...' rather than 'Will you...if I...'. This is because our brains work very quickly and starting with 'will you' causes them to begin thinking immediately about objections and they may miss the exchange. On the other hand, starting with 'If I...' will cause psychological closure on what you are offering thus drawing them into the close. Examples If I can lower the CPI price, will you still be interested? If I get you a proactive proposal based on a dummy brief, would you like to sit down and look through it?


Boomerang method Technique - 
When people object, turn them around by using what they say to prove that they are wrong. Use their own arguments like a boomerang, so they go around in a circle and come back to persuade them. Examples Yes, it is expensive, but your sample is hard to reach and I challenge you to find a cheaper option How it works By using what they say, you are saying that they are right. And when you attach what you want to what they say, then by association, what you want is right.

Alright summarizing these long comment threads, here is what we got for the next town hall:
1) Option to filter feeds based on personal preference?
2) Possible post limit per day
3) Possible probationary period for new members
4) Possible Mod/AI review of posts with common keywords

Edits:
1) Minimum member commission limit required to make a post
2) Character minimum on comments
3) Pin PBCs video tutorial

LMK if I missed anything

I almost feel like having a minimum commission in place to create new threads is a good idea. I know other forums do it.

New members have to get 50 commission before they're allowed to start new topics - would force them to start participating in threads and getting a feel for what goes on here. I guess people could game the system by just posting "this" and "yeah" on a bunch of shit but it might help the situations where new members enter and create eight new polls in an hour.

sooo make less rewards for more work? 
post limits will reduce long term viability for sure
how do you get the minimum commission limit if you cant get commissioned 
video is always dope.

feed filters are a great idea or notification filters or maybe an option to "see fewer posts like these"

probation periods kill membership platforms you will not get the engagement or longevity you're looking for if you mute their momentum. 
this isn't a job and they don't need to be managed. 
don't stop the content creation just allow for the curation of view.

maybe have a passive-aggressive micromanager option where they can ocd over controlling every little useless detail in their life so they can just get the posts they agree with and never have to see an opposing opinion. like facebook does with politics. pretty sure I saw an algorithm for that somewhere. hmm

If someone is trying to treat this place like a money printing machine they should be ostracized...I'm willing to bet that giving shit away for free for zero value offered is not what Sahil/Corp had in mind when creating the WR. 

You can still earn commission from replying to existing posts and gaining upvotes so it's not like I'm suggesting that new users should not allowed to participate.

The issue isn't dissenting opinions - there's been a ton of lively debate in here. The issue is low effort garbage posts that aren't useful or funny.

rising tides lifts all boats brotha reward the good ignore the bad and soon they won't even be able to cut through the noise of quality. let the upvote and downvotes do it's job.

and literally defining value v trash is a measurement of dissenting opinions, just as this conversation is lol love the irony. all I'm saying is don't put effort into stoping them let the system do its job. with notification filtering and feed filters I don't see the need for anything beyond that, like are yall gunna open a zuckerberg jail and have mods waste time looking for trolls no let's just focus on more better faster soon and drown own the dumb. let the new kids learn what the standard is let them make mistakes, I learned cuz one post got downvoted to oblivion before I even responded to the first comment lol. let them fail forward

i would love to filter my notifications not just by category but also if its a comment or a like... don't need to see the likes I just wanna know who replied.
and I know its risky but if we could open our own threads only available through our profiles I think that would be fantastic

Every hour that passes makes me wish I never set off on this mission, but should I succeed my family shall never want for anything ever again.

Oh to see my wife's face again, to watch my children grow up. These are dreams to be fulfilled by lesser men. Men who did not undertake the goal of finding the best CRM.

Should I succeed they will remember my name for eternity. Some may hate that I asked the question, but they are simply drunk on their own ignorance.
