I am wondering how I could tweak [this plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-hot-topics/48215) to use in our forum…

Every now and then we have hot topics in the negative sense, meaning some topics become very fast-paced, even too fast, and people write there annoyed, i.e. flame wars. I’d want to somehow use the plugin or make a fork of it that would automatically make a topic “hot” and prevent fast and short replies when a flame war is ongoing…

If you happen to make one, I’d be happy to use it 🙂 Otherwise I’ll try my hand at plugin coding later this year…
