I think the general idea of focused discussions about important
questions is great, but blocking all other conversation on a list
such as this might not be the best considering the number of
simultaneous discussions going on. Here's one way you could make
the question a focus without shutting everything else down:
1. Every Monday, post a new question for the week.
2. Add a special flag to the subject of every approved post in the
thread so everyone knows it's 'This Week's Important Issue'
[TWII], i.e.
Subject: [MUD-Dev] [TWII #1] Combat-less combat systems
Subject: [MUD-Dev] [TWII #27] How to attract more griefers
(feel free to come up with a better acronym and topics... ;) )
3. "Aggressively moderate" posts so they are very on-topic, and
maybe raise the bar a bit on the acceptable quality of the posts
to emphasize that this discussion is more important than normal.
4. Let the discussion run for a few days to give people a chance
to think about and compose good responses. The plan would be for
the discussion to end in time for the new one to begin on Monday.
