Get rid of post your... junk threads

[Kardan]

That's interesting. That thread was closed in 2009 but the current music thread was made in 2005 :S

I think someone stole the original post from the first thread, and took it over to the new thread. Not sure why.

Hence why the original post just posts a song, whereas you'd expect them to explain the thread.

The original post was moved to the new one because the one and only issue that arose from closing the original was that people thought it was sad that Vampire didn't have the first post

That's.....stupid

Anyway, I think they best thing to do for these threads is to create some sort of rule specific to these threads that can be displayed in the first post

Definitely agree, don't think they should be closed or moved, just made harder for them to abuse, maybe a limit per day or something.

You may make 5 rule-breaking posts per day, enjoy!

wats the issue with closing and reopening new 1s without postcount

the threads are trash and thats nearly a unanimous decision. who would even care if they were closed and never to be seen again

remove all threads start forum from scratch

[FlyingJesus]

Kyle you have 4 rule-breaking posts remaining

Because everyone reads the first post when you're 900 pages in to it.

Close the thread, even if you have to leave it in place so people keep their PC (just unsticky it) then open new one in forum games so it doesn't continue to be abused until the next FM comes along.

good idea purge the forum

[Kyle]

just realised im on 2 infractions for avoiding filter, better not risk it

possible bad effects - shockwave doesnt post
possible (questionably) good effects - shockwave becomes more active

where is the downside to removing these threads
I read them for stalking purposes but don't post in them
