At some point, it would be nice if we had site support for weekly/monthly threads and if people could submit comments in advance that would go live when the next thread was created.
I’m not sure how to put this. One reason that comes to mind for having it weekly is that it seems to me that threads get “old” very quickly now. For example it seems to me that out of all questions asked in the Stupid Questions thread that are unanswered, a good percentage of those are unanswered because people don’t see them, not because people don’t know the answers to them. (speaking of which, I haven’t seen that thread get reposted in some months, or am I missing something?)
I think something like this could be valuable, but that once a week is too often. Once a month seems more reasonable.

May I suggest a period of 15 days?
Yeah, I think the notification system for comment threads could use some work.
Yeah, the notification system is currently quite disfunctional. I should get around to fixing it soon.
Okay, will do it each month (if it gets some traction).
