I suggest you read this thread: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=122017
It should clear your doubts. |

ha! you're not going to believe this but the whole reason i got kicked out of the other gaming forums for doing that crap. i didn't intentionally bring up old crap but sometimes some of the people who posted those things still haven't gotten answers or will repost sometime in the future anyway so i don't see the problem. i won't fight the system here because it's not worth it but i totally agree with you. it's stupid. the way i see it is: if it pisses you off and you don't like it, then don't reply. the person will find out on their own if the topic is to be discussed any further. just let them be, i always say. my only suggestion is to keep you from doing it again always check the dates and if the post is more than like 2 pages back, you shouldn't respond to it. |

The main issue I have with the rule, though, is the fact that it causes a huge backlog of abandoned threads that could probably be reduced to a couple hundred if people were simply allowed to post on threads whenever they wanted. Oh well. |

People who are complaining about the ruling and calling it 'stupid', have you stopped to think why other forums have the same ruling? |
^ Ok, what you said sounds completely different than what the last guy said. The last guy said something that actually made it seem fair, the way you say it, you sound like Hitler No. 2 :S

Also, according to Godwin's Law, comparing someone from the other party in a forum discussion to Hitler means you automatically lose the debate. Oops. |
forum can add a very easy system. thread will be showed to the normal users as locked if 1 month passed. only thread owner will be able to post. but in my opinion this rule is totally unlogical.

what about trade threads? they almost never get old unless someone closes it

-Anyway, all I'm saying is, if you're a mod, you should be more professional and not sound like you're agitated or annoyed, even if you are. I've been a mod 6 times on different forums now, you don't solve problems by acting all high and mighty, you try to be reasonable and gently explain it, not lash out. For instance, BobandBill is probably the most professional mod I've seen yet, he doesn't go around locking threads and then bugging people about it, he either moves it, or locks it but offers advice like "You should try doing this and etc..", if I came off as rude, I apologize, just saying.- |

Back to the point of the thread though, I think everything that needs to be said has been said. If a thread hasn't been posted in in over a month, it's dead. Done. Deceased. Wilted. Kicked the bucket. Just don't post in it. It's not hard to check the the date of the last post that was made in the thread and then make a new one if it's too old. I don't see why this is having to be such a big issue. I'm surprised this thread is still even open at this point. |
I think this thread has well-outlived its usefulness...if it had any to begin with. I see nothing constructive coming from it and it's starting to get nasty, so...
Locked. |
