Forums - Website Topics - Forum rules not listed under Forum Rules link

Legend11 on 14 June 2009

I noticed a thread of mine was locked and it appears that the reason is a forum rule that isn't in the "Forum Rules" link.  Is there any chance the rules could be updated to reflect any new rules that have been made?  The rule in this case is that you're apparently not allowed to post in a thread that hasn't seen a post in 3 days (maybe it's in 2 days for all I know, it would be nice if the Forum Rules stated where the cutoff point is).

Good point! Some other sites prefer people search for a thread and for people to add to it rather than start a new thread when applicable.



Tease.

whatever on 14 June 2009

WTF? Why would that be against the forum rules?

As far as I'm concerned, the cutoff for it to be considered necrobumping is 1 week

What? Torillian  told me it was 1 year. Than I saw
Nordlead say it was one month than I saw nazatips lock a thread that was bumped
but had its last post in 3 days. ?????? Help me I'm so confused.

You gotta understand, it's not a "6 days is OK, 1 week is ban" thing. Bumping a thread when the last post was 4 days ago just with "bump" is spamming. Bumping a thread that's 4 weeks old with a very intelligent post may not be spamming. It all depends on what was on that post
