In this forum we have a few threads that are extremely long and started by a question asking for personal advice and as such the first posts of it don't have a whole lot of information. Examples:

[Warlock] how do you do high DPS?
[Mage] How Can Arcane Damage Work?

Then we have a few that are awesome, information laden posts such as the following:

Enhance Shaman: The Collected Works of Theorycraft, Vol I
and the newly created
http://elitistjerks.com/f31/t16902-f...id_megathread/

Thanks to Malan and dukes for those two in particular

I think most can agree that the latter are better posts and can cut down drastically on the amount of commonly asked questions, as well as the "geez learn to use the search function" responses and infractions

I'm looking for volunteers to help out and make better threads to replace some of the existing ones which can then be closed. Information covered should include things like what gems/enchants to choose, talents, gear, and commonly asked questions.

If you're willing to create such thread, please post in this thread as well to let everyone know so we don't end up with duplicates.

Yes it's very good, thank you!

One thing I would add is general gem selection. Your post just shows meta gem selection unless there's something I missed. Even if you just say "living rubies everywhere" or whatever, some info on general gem selection would be nice.

I'll work on a Mage thread, but if somebody beats me to it, I won't too disappointed.

Fixed, I'm off to a meeting so I'll be back in an hour to check up on it.

I'd be happy to do a protection paladin thread, but there are likely better choices for an author given that my raiding experience only goes as far as Prince.

I'll do it tomorrow if nobody else picks it up by then.

Yeah. Specifically for rogues, things like selection weapons, gems, and the advantages and disadvantages to each talent spec would be helpful, as well as links to spreadsheets and other relevant threads. I'm sure other rogues could give more input about things they'd like to see.

The goal isn't to have just a single thread for each class and cram every single question in it, but having a 50 page thread that starts with a post from five months ago where someone is asking for help with their DPS on Gruul isn't the best starting point for discussion.

A roundup of the "new hotness" arcane missile spam data would be great. There is some terrific info in the Arcane thread, but at this point it is too unwieldy and really needs a summary post. I'm usually the first to tell someone to RTFM (or in this case, Use TF Search Function) but Beef has the right idea here. A thread with an actively maintained summary in the first post, with the supporting discussion below, is better for everyone's sanity.

Very long. Boethius bumped it some time ago to accommodate Malan's huge post, I'm sure he could do it again if need be. You won't need to reserve multiple posts.

Beef, are you looking for one thread for a particular spec of a class? For example, a holy priest thread versus a shadow priest thread? Or would they be lumped together? Don't want to create the Rosie O'Donnell of class threads.

I am currently working on a Shadow Priest thread.

Surely, having read all those threads, you would agree with me that the answer is a resounding yes.

I've got something in the works, should be ready to post within a couple hours.
