The open threads have always seemed terribly inefficient to me. Most forums have a board for "stuff that doesn't belong anywhere else." That seems to be the purpose that the OT is being used for, but it's not terribly effective at it.

Any topic-thread that's posted regularly should really be a subreddit, IMO.

Absolutely. The proper response to this confusion should be: "fix the site to have a third, lower priority level", not "increase the frequency of our hack".
