1/ That is why we need an overarching policy and must push for production by the masses.

If u announce a reward for a certain number of threads/milestones, then people may turn up but then they need more reward to continue that enthusiasm.

2/ If u don't announce a reward & keep a surprise element & do not even disclose different milestones of threads including other parameters like 7- Day 30- Day thread count, a large section will be able to organically produce desired number

Valid points but we need a dedicated group of volunteers for that task and a dedicated resource pool. Hope the users respond to that long term commitment.
