Reply To: KTCRIM – Keep the CR Interesting Movement

GoGoGo: I shall belatedly address your original point, facetious though it may be.

The hashtag #KTCRIM is not to add any extra importance, interest or support to a post or thread. It’s purpose, at least in my humble opinion, is to let others know that this post serves to add to and improve the general discussion. So, for example, when I began the Reporting Abusers thread, part of the reason I initiated it was, not only due to mmy strong feelings on the matter, but to improve both the quantity and quality of the discourse. That kind of thread leads to halachic, political and moral discussions, all of which lead to lively, interesting threads, where the posts are not bland or all in agreement, such as chewing over news stories or swapping recipies, but contoversial, argumentative (in a good way) and generally spirited. The same can apply to posts that open up a previously dull topic into a new, interesting angle. And to show that this is our intention, those participating in the general movement mark this with a #KTCRIM. Of course, this is not to demean the other threads, but simply to serve the interests of those in agreement with the key aims of the KTCRIM. Comprende?

No offense.
