Automatically join posts

Open Jurigag opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

It could be good to add option to automatically join posts when written by same person one after one(like if there is less between 5/10 minutes then join content of new post to last user post) and there is no other user post between them.

@Jurigag I'm no sure it is helpful. I think one post must be about one concrete problem/issue. If we'll join them then we join two problem/issue in one post. How can help this someone to solve particular issue? Could you please elaborate on that

I mean if they are added in similar amount of time like couple of minutes. If someone will write two posts in two days then fine, don't join them.

@Jurigag I can't understand which problem you try to solve. I'm sure this will produce a lot of problems and conflicts. For example let's imagine that I have two question. I'll create post in "beginners" category and then I'll create next post in "devtools" category. How and why can we join them? What should we do with title of post? Which category this post depend on? How can I mark a reply helpful and my question as solved if reply belong to just one part? There is possibility to edit post. If user decides to create a new one - this is his decision and I'm not sure we have to do with. Could you explain a bit more about your idea and realization?
