i am wondering, how would i find the megathread? or do i just type megathread when posting a thread? im new to facepunch. thanks.
A megathread is, simply put, just a normal thread with a lot of content to serve for a discussion on a certain thing, like a game. In the case of a game, the thread usually consists of trailers, mods, Facepunch groups for the game, servers, information about the game, etc. In that thread, everything related to the subject is discussed. This keeps everything about that subject in one place, rather than multiple smaller threads for different pieces of information and topics. Here's a good example: [url]http://facepunch.com/threads/1160321[/url] The OP (original post, AKA the very first post in a thread) contains information about the subject, images, mods, etc. Then everyone in the megathread discusses on anything about that subject. IN FACT: There's actually a megathread for discussing this forum here: [url]http://facepunch.com/threads/1160387[/url] For future reference, you can ask any other questions about this forum there. For your case, this is where you'll want to post your Doom walkthroughs: [url]http://facepunch.com/threads/776988/6[/url] It's an old thread, so you'll be bumping it if you post in it, but if you're actually posting content (your videos) you'll be fine.
megathreads are made megathreads by moderators i think
a megathread is a thread times 10^6 try starting out small, like a kilothread then when you're good at that, you can comfortably move onto megathreads
I'm pretty sure the OP is 12, but no matter, welcome aboard! A megathread is basically like, a space preserver, where instead of a lot of threads scattered about, there's one big thread for everybody to discuss the target of the megathread. Like say, you have a Just Cause megathread. You discuss things about the game Just Cause. It's usually required that the megathread's OP has a lot of details about the subject in which you are discussing, or else they'll start off really sluggishly though, and won't be that appealing to the reader. Anyway, good luck!
Megathread is usually a thread about a game series for example. Basically, a big thread.
