'What...' threads that do not contribute to discussion...

[Kardan]

If people wouldn't have wanted it, then they wouldn't have made the feedback thread ages ago? Sigh. Just going to start to give up.

Do you mods actually alter anything. You refuse to alter these threads, well you've actually agreed to a sub-forum trial which is a good thing I suppose, the filtering got nowhere last night with "c.b.f." and I can't remember the other issue I was going to bring up tbh.

The super moderators have nothing to do with how the forum is ran.

Yes we do alter stuff that needs altering. The filter one I was completely confused over and haven't had a problem over. These pointless threads never go anywhere because of the Forum Management/Higher disagreeing in the end. Me and Chris and a few others have always agreed to a trial of a sub forum but it's always turned down. I really think this needs to go ahead to stop these threads coming up in the future.

I should have said forum staff tbh.

If it's Forum Management consistently disagreeing, can I ask why @Martin; or was it down to an ex-forum management member?

[Jordan]

I can't remember Martin's opinion on a sub forum but I can try and dig out why scott disagreed to it.

hang on. - effort Martin's replied anyway.

Dont fix what doesn't need fixing is my view. lol

But some of those threads are a problem I think it's a tad clear.

[santa-my-nana]

If you could actually get a forum management to come explain why it keeps getting turned down then that would be great because in the end, cant they see that these will keep coming back up unless they agree to a trial of some sorts

[Kardan]

I think the moral of this story is, dont fix what doesn't need fixing. lol

It's not really the moral of the story, it's just your point of view.

I will reply properly in a bit as I'm doing something right now, however I don't believe I have ever turned down the idea of a subforum for such threads, infact I think I was quite up for the idea in the past however Former Forum Management turned the idea down after discussion.

I don't see any harm in trying it out. The main thing I would not want to do is move such threads to spam, as they would get totally de-railed and would lose their spark. I think some people do find these kind of threads interesting and if they were in spam then it could go off topic quite quickly thus ruining the point of the thread. I think there would need to be a seperate sub forum purely to keep things on topic instead of just turning into big spam threads.

This is what I was hoping for Surely if it was former management that were opposed, then perhaps progress will be made
