    I agree too. I see why there is no post count there as it isn't really going to be used for discussion, just a few words from each post such as Well done, however, it is getting abused quite a bit and there are a lot more spam threads in there. When someone does get a promotion and a thread is made, chances are it will just get pushed down the list by spam threads.

    It just needs a general rule setting to it to be honest, so that if people do abuse it then they wil have gone against the ruling forserious threads only and will be dealt with like any other rule break.

    Thats a good idea, but surely this should have been thought of before the (I think) rushed introduction of this new forum... It was rather abrupt as usually the big cheeses will take weeks to decide on a new forum..

    Set a rule so the first post must contain a link to the annoucement/event it's relating to? If there's no link then the thread get's closed with a note asking for them to recreate it with a link to the source. Something like that should work I reckon.

    I'm in agreement with this. Hopefully we can get some sort of firm rule set out as it shouldn't be used as a spam forum. Thanks for your feedback!

    Yeah you are right. The idea of that forum came from this thread, and here you can see the idea behind it: http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=518839

    When Nvrspk4 posted the announcement it did clearly say there was no post count, so maybe some members think there is lol

    http://www.habboxforum.com/showpost....68&postcount=6

    I would like to see it put to good use, and hoped that those creating threads just for the fun of it, would have their threads moved to spam
    It's the quality of your posts that count, not the quantity!

    Dignity does not consist in possessing honours, but in deserving them.

    I was going to post this exact thread, but then got sidetracked.

    It's stupid that people are posting stuff like;

    "Congratulations to me for fitting into old pants"

    Thats just ridiculous.
    PM me for help.
