This is a good idea. I asked the mods if Pro Racing could be "cleaned up" because some racers have three to five threads, and some races have even more. I really became aware of this when I was looking for Joe Dombrowski's thread. One was buried on page seven so I posted to it only to find out that his main thread was Joseph Dombrowski (must have been on page eight). While I was scrolling to page seven I was surprised at the number of like threads. My search for Joe only came up with race threads that he was mentioned in so I think that the search function is lacking.

Once we have a handful of those threads of threads, it would be great to have a thread of threads of threads so we can find all threads of threads in one thread

I agree--- but if we have all thread of threads threads in one thread what will we need for that one thread?

Now that Red Rick has threatened to issue a threat, further thoughts on the thread of threads of threads would constitute treading a thin thread so I wouldn't fret too much if you're confused

I've added some threads, like the Freeform/chaos thread, and a couple others. I ran into the software's "25 url limit" and can't add any more for now. I will do what I can to increase this parameter in the next couple weeks.

We've had complaints about this low url limit before, it will soon be addessed...
