Danny696 Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 Hows about locking a topic after say a year with no posts. Stops newbs posting in topics from like 4 years ago :) Quote
The Spirit Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 I like it :D Just it wouldd be a pain going through the topics to find out which are a year old? Quote
Danny696 Posted January 2, 2011 Author Posted January 2, 2011 Well, we are suppose to have three good coders as owners, im sure they can do it :0 Quote
Jordan Palmer Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 No point. This is a forum... A forum which has no rules against the timeframe of a reply. If you dont like it simple enough danny dont look there Quote
Paul Evans Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 im confused who owns mwg and can code... serious question... i actually like the idea i mean i see newbs doing it all the time and it would take what 20 minutes to lock all the topics from 1 year or more ago ... timestamp ain't hard to work with. plus no offence to the newb but it does get annoying 1 year gaps in convos.

Jordan Palmer Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 I don't see this happening... It's a plain stupid idea, If you dont want to see newbs posting then dont look simple enough really Quote
Paul Evans Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 just curious but jordan are you saying we shouldn't check out unread posts? That's fine by me i have 26 pages of the crap i need to sort through... lol be easier just to say 'hey if you don\'t like how we do it then piss off' lol just have that at the beginning of the site where people signup im sure it will keep the few members MWG has left:P Quote
Jordan Palmer Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 I'm saying regardless of how easy it is we wont be locking all topics to stop "newbs" from replying. If you dont wanna see a newbs reply check the date before going to it.. Quote
Paul Evans Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 you see the date the person last replied (last time i looked) and maybe the creation date but you don't know that convo isn't still going on... PS unban me from IRC that lame bot dislikes me saying goats ill report it's ass lol Quote
Jordan Palmer Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 Well, Just flick to it and look at the recent replies, Not hard imo.. And done Quote
Paul Evans Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 still waste of time why not make it optional to see the threads older than a year even if people have posted on it lately Quote
Jordan Palmer Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 I honestly dont see the point, And I doubt the other two will. Just hit the "Threads of the last 24 hours" if its that much of a pain Quote
Rasheed saeed Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 No rule against it, no point. If a noob wants to post a reply, or a known coder wants to. He can. The owners can code(Dabs - CB - Jord), but reputation was ruing by V2. Lock this topic since this is going no were? 0-0 Quote
