Replay Board Megathreads
Replays board is currently only used for personal replay threads, allowing people to keep a their own little blog of replays to share with community. This is enforced, although there isn't any rule which specifically declares it to be illegal, several are based around this axiom:

(you could argue for others too but those are the most glaring)

9. This forum is for the sharing and critique of your replays so if you want replays for a video you're going to make, then make a thread in Video Submissions, NOT Replays.

However, I (and other staffer guys) think that introducing one or more community megathreads as stickies wouldn't be a bad idea. These threads would allow anyone to share their replay in said thread. The threads would look something like:

[Official][MP] Multiplayer Replay Megathread

The rules of the thread are a debatable point. Should CnC be a prerequisite to submitting a replay? Will there be a time limit before you're allowed to post again in the thread (to prevent flooding from the same 5 guys who just cant resist sharing every single aikido game they ever played)?

My personal proposal would to allow two megathreads: multiplayer and singleplayer. Cnc would be a prereq, and you're not allowed to post more than twice per day in a megathread (although whether enforcing something like that is practical or not ehh).

Whether this should be implemented at all, or how many threads would be optimal (do you want to split parkour replays out of singleplayer? How about giving grappling its own thread as well as striking etc.).

Depending on the response this will be implemented very soon.
