Digger...are you serious?

jerkbox said:
yeah....bumping anything is bad.....i wish someone would explain the rules.....

It's been explained bor.

If they have a boner for locking, mods and admins can do as they please. No reason need be given.

ahhh yeah....and for some reason you get redded for bumping old threads.....what exactly is the problem anyway....why not just delete the old threads .....expire them, so that they are no longer there if bandwidth is such an issue.


sheeesh

So the new procedure is to PM someone else to bump a post for you?

For your sake I hope not.
You may be forced to try and find friends then.
Of course I suppose you could pay somebody.
 
LOL! Digger, FZ asked me to bump a bush thread and I bumped the ones I knew I had started. They're all still relivant and it's not like I'm bumping a year old dead topic.

Just wanted to explain da bumping.

BANNED.
 
After the second thread got bumped I was going "wha?" but still not making a big deal out of it. Then I hit the third one bumped within three minutes and there was no indication Wodie had any intention of stopping there. So at that point it's not "wha?" It's "Oh, come ON! Give it a rest!" Still no big deal, I just fired a warning shot across his bow.

On the FOURTH one he bumped, he added some updated numbers, and you'll notice that one didn't get locked.

I didn't send them to the recycle bin. Nobody got any red.

Hell, I even thought about unlocking them... tomorrow, or the day after, once they were back where YOU AS A GROUP decided they belonged. (Why didn't anyone keep them going the first time around? Hmmmmmm?)
 
digger, just for clarification

Scenario a) Let's say you do a search on something and find a really informative old thread....lets say about Milk Thistle. You bump it with a comment like "great info, glad I found this." (this is on supps board)

Scenario b) same as above but subject is Mark Kate and Ashley (C&C board)

c) You bump an old classic thread by someone else (like the recent Satanic Goatslayer thread)

d) same as c but it's your own thread (but it was legitimately popular)

e) same as d but it's a stupid thread (like Lestat's "got in a fight at the carwash" thread)

f) it's a thread you started that kind of fizzled out and you bump "for more responses"

In all scenarios the threads are at least one month old.

Thanks

because they sucked, thats why
 
Long answer short: We shouldn't have to close every old thread just to keep an occasional dickhead from screwing around.

Send the guy some green. Why does it need to be on the front page again? That's why we have a search option.
Scenario b) same as above but subject is Mark Kate and Ashley (C&C board)
I think you mean Mary Kate, not Mark Kate, and you are a sick, sick man.
c) You bump an old classic thread by someone else (like the recent Satanic Goatslayer thread)
Die like a pig.
d) same as c but it's your own thread (but it was legitimately popular)
Die like a pig-dog.
e) same as d but it's a stupid thread (like Lestat's "got in a fight at the carwash" thread)
Die like a pig-dog's dog.
f) it's a thread you started that kind of fizzled out and you bump "for more responses"

Die like a -- well, you get the idea.

Hey, you left out "All of the above in one five-minute orgy of screwing around." That's kind of important to the decision making process.

Look, when you take your driving test, the book doesn't list every possible situation you will ever encounter on the road, but it does tell you that a cop can wave you through a red light or stop you at a green one.
 
Digger - did the gestapo recruit you or something?

As long as someone isn't being a purposely annoying dickhead, why can't a thread be bumped? If that is what the members want, then just let it be. Is the board here for GS, yours and the admin's amusement - or is it here to generate revenue?

I don't understand where all this stuff lately is coming from. The "Don't you dare question authority around here" is total BS too. The real authority is in the paying members... not a mod or an admin or even GS. Why can't someone ask why a thread that doesn't violate any known rules or TOS ask why it was deleted, moved or modified without fear of retribution?

This board has a history of rouge mods that love to delete threads and lie about doing it. Or editing posts for their own personal agenda. This new un-written policy of not questioning authority will make it impossible for abuse to come to the attention of the site owner in the future.

It just seems like things are getting a little silly....

Seacrest.... OUT >


LOL - I just noticed Digger sent me Red Karma for expressing my opinion.

:finger:

Shuv it up your ass. :geigh:

Wrong. The real authorities are, in order:

GS
digger
other admins
Elite Mods
Mods
Paying members
all other humans with internet access
all other vertebrates
all invertebrates not covered above
flora
bacteria

Like someone bumping four dead threads in three minutes? How about seven? Or seventeen? Let's leave Wodie out of this, since he's got history here. Let's talk about some hypothetical dickhead.

How much of a head start does he get? When the whole front page is random garbage from two years ago, do you say "Gee, it got a little bit out of hand"? Or do we discourage it, carefully, one dickhead's thread at a time?

Wow your response was didn't even address your customers concerns. Impressive.

It has been a pleasure. ;)
 
why jumble the sites history?

and yes occasionally, some threads may be brought back up.......like you said if the person is not being deliberately annoying, but I seriously hate seeing all this old crap up here and will lock if need be


also the TOS argument doesn't hold much water, part of the TOS is that elite staff can lock what they want, when they want, why they want

STFU...you
 
What I really wish is that the rules change a bit so that when an elite moderator amends a thread, their name will be at the bottom as 'post last edited by:'

It really sucks when some posts that people make get amended without a prior email warning or email in general saying why it was amended

Stop whining bitch boy.

Now go shine my shoes.
 
I can totally understand where you coming from digger.
 
I just recycle them when someone bumps three year old polls by voting on them. Like someone was doing yesterday.


:evil:
 
Yeah I like to screw with people that way. LOL!
