|
|
Hi all,, on the board i saw many topics locked and maybe it is a good idea that maybe the moderators could remove the ‘locked’ topics and place the info (wich could be in) to the already existing topic.
Just a idea to clean the whole forum a bit
Let me know what you think of this |

Yes it would be a great idea... but most importantly, most of the moderators are busy working/studying or whatever, so I think they may not have enough time to clean up the forum...
It's wise to let them know we'd like them to do it though _________________ Click here to download my mixes.

I agree, it is quite annoying to have lots of red circles around. _________________ It takes 64 muscles of the face to make a frown, and only 13 to make a smile. Why work overtime? |

That´s quite a lot of cleaning up to do and I don´t think any of us has time to do that.

Yes, but we have all those closed topics because some members don´t bother to use the search button and the preferred topics or they post in the wrong sections. _________________ Trouble finding things? Use the search button.
Please use the PREFERRED topic for requests. |

I deleted the 20 topics in the 10 pages of the photo section and it took 15 minutes.
We have to take closed topics for a little so people knows that we closed them and (I hope) see where to go or what to do...
Is yet a long boring work to delete all of them.. for the info they have inside there's NO way we are going to shift them.. it would require AGES to do it.
The sooner people learn to search properly, the better. _________________ USE the same topics to ask, even if the links there are DEAD!
The POOR search button EXISTS! use it please.. |

First- the search button isn't that great to be honest.
Also, just a note for the moderators- there are some thing even here that can be cleaned out. For example-
the 'banned', 'impossibility of registration', and 'problem registering' topics could be merged.
There are two topics about a 'New Layout'.
And the most important thing- Why aren't the posts that alert people of something or someone being added to a Sticky topic deleted? Once you search through the list in the first post you don't even have to think about the other pages....... _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBZtHAVvslQ |

First, there are some criteria to use the search button.. since it goes by words, putting the right ones and the most exclusive and detailed for what you are looking for, would be the best.
i.e. in the loetard section, you should put only the name of the gymnast not all the info about the leo you need otherwise any other leo that has the same colour in the title will pop up,
if you need to find the topic about Male rg, NEVER put 'male RG" but only "Male, or Boys" etc since "Rg" is one of the most popular words here.
ans the spelling can also be a problem, so if someone spelled differently a surname you will never find it, so go for the name or nick name ETC ETC
.Second, there are a lot of things to do we all know, but it's not the preminent problem. We are not full time cleaners, so we do as much as possible.
(btw, registering problems and banning are different things and doesn't seem to me they grow madly every day.)
I wonder WHY we have two topic about new layout.. again it goes to the search function
and for you most important thing: the total amount of posts in the list of topics added, and the rate we keep posting there are surcalssed by one hundred times by the posts of "thank you" and "thanks dear" that are posted in a single week just in the photo section, so No sorry i don't see this huge problem.
the huge problem I see is that we are slowly dying cause a lot of valuable members leave or don't post anymore. _________________ USE the same topics to ask, even if the links there are DEAD!
