    Default Make your stupid minds up, idiots.

    Seriously, what the hell.

    I did a test on Habbox, you see. Turns out what I was thinking was true.

    I created a thread with old news, on purpose and it got locked. That was to be expected. I bumped an old thread on the same topic, it got locked.

    I've seen before when people post stuff which is old, so people reply "use the search tool" - so when people do use the search tool and not create a new thread, they get told off for bumping. I even got negative reputation for it, as if I'm gonna cry about it.

    Go on, give me negative reputation for this thread as well.

    Make your ******* minds up.

    Calm down a little bit, you generally need mature and sensible threads in Habbox Feedback if you have any hope of getting anywhere. Since you've called people 'Idiots' you're automatically going to get replies which are of little use and make the thread a bit more tense.

    This has been going on for over a year, infact all the time I've used HabboxForum but I've never seen the need for change, but yes this is a problem and I totally see what you mean.

    You're not going to get a very good reply by calling people idiots and being rude now are you?

    Care to post the links to these threads so we can we what you mean?

    Edit - I found the thread ( http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=562277 ). The UK News Forum is to post new news and rumours. If you used the search tool you will have seen that the news is very old and therefore you don't need to discuss it. If you wanted to discuss it though, you should of made a thread in Habbo In General and spoke about it there.

    The other day I was in a toilet.
    A voice came from the cubicle next to me: "Hello mate, how are you doing?"
    I didn't want to be rude, so I said, "Not too bad, thanks."
    I heard the voice again. "So, what are you up to?"
    Again I answered, "Just having a quick ****... How about yourself?"
    Then I heard him say "Sorry, mate, I'll have to call you back. I've got some **** in the cubicle next to me answering everything I say."

    Well if you are going to bump a thread that is pretty old then yes it will be closed, as the rest of the posts from then on are usually spam. If you create a thread in the News & Rumours section of Habbo and it has been posted before it will also be closed. If you have a point to make or it was simply an accident not noticing it was already posted however, is a different matter.

    You should then make a thread regarding your point in the Habbo in General section where it will specific to what you wish to discuss rather than making it out to be news that has allready been discoverd some time before.

    Lastly, i think you have gone about this the wrong way. A simple question to Moderators or the managers would have aufficed rather than getting irate over it.

    I thought you were allowed to bump a thread if it was for a good reason

    Seriously? Because you could've fooled me.

    Was this thread really necessary? Do you expect to gain anything from being so obnoxious and rude? A thread in "Ask the Habbox Staff" would've sufficed. Throwing a tantrum over something so trivial is really unneeded...

    You made a thread which was old news, it got locked - justified.
    You bumped an old topic, it got locked - justified.

    "Use the search tool" is still valid because it means you can read up on old news, but it doesn't need to be bumped because it's old. If a topic has died it's likely to be because it is no longer interesting to anyone, so you don't need to post in it to prove that you've read it or whatever your plan was.

    You will get told off for bumping though so what you on about :S If the news has been posted before the latest thread would be closed.

    If people bump threads then they will get told off and will be closed.

    We've made our minds up and this procedure has been in place for a few years. :rolleyes:

    However if a (super)moderator/admin has given you minus reputation for the discipline then report it in the approriate thread located in this forum, as they shouldnt of done that!
