Hmm it seems to me there is always a new locked thread coming up here now lately.

How about if you moderators or you Erpy could collect all of those "locked threads" and make a "Prisoner Forum" for them bwhahahahahaha!

Not necessary. That'll just draw unnecessary attention to them, while the whole point of locking threads is letting them die in peace.

I'm really starting to get tired of your post-pumping, Rog.

Oh yeah, I can feel the love around here. Well, I think that's the perfect moment to leave this board. Good luck on all your future projects, AGDI. You guys did a great job and were always an inspiration for me.

Hehe, when ever I see a locked thread I go straight to see why it was locked.

But do you ever look past the first page of the forum for it?

Huh?

Only if I happen to be there for another reason. I'm not advocting a new forum. Just pointing out the irony in the fact that locked threads attract attention even if they can't be replyed to.

On a seperate note: QFG2VGA looks great, good luck and keep up the good work... really looking forward to it.

And that's the point I'm trying to make. Locked threads can't get bumped and people can't continue with whatever caused it to be locked, so eventually, they'll sink down.

LF really is a fan of your work, and what you do. He may be a joker, and such - but he really does love games, and your games in particular.

I was referring to his announcement of leaving, not the rest of the message.

Big deal Erpy! I know it will draw a big attention to it but you don't have to bother with it anymore and it would be great if it could be in same place because it will be like reading a book without having a chance to give any comments to it. So why not giving that "Locked threads Forums" a chance just for one month and see what happens? Don't be such a hard judge on this. Just think about it again because you could get more forums readers to come and visit this place.

PS: Why do you want to keep those threads anyway if you want to see it die in the first place?

Pss: I mean since you still respect those threads and want them to die in peace why not make a cemetery forum for them then?

Psss: And call it then "R.I.P forum"

Ok I have "piss" enough on this thread so I stop now.

I doubt your idea will work in practice. Locked threads tend to sink and when they fall off the first page, people tend not to notice them anymore. Giving them their own place on the forum will just put them in the spotlight. I've never seen a forum that had a folder specifically for locked threads and I figure there's a reason for this. It's not worth it.

Ummm, am I the only one who thought Fribbi was joking?

Swift · #17 Post by **Swift** » Fri Oct 08, 2004 5:21 am

I share your views, Kurdt.

It's really hard to tell sometimes.

Fribbi · #19 Post by **Fribbi** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 1:10 am

Oh well.

Why am I suddenly feeling like I'm a useless Entertainer now? Nobody listen to me, nobody understand me correct and I get no respect from Erpy and bla bla bla....

I hope you realize adeyke's a mod around here, Rog.

Ooh, insult a mod. Not a good idea, Rog.

If you're lucky, maybe he won't ban you.

Alias · #25 Post by **Alias** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 6:54 pm

Well I dont really care. I dont hide my feelings just because of:

OOoohhh look his got the mod title ooooohhh no what will I do? PLEASE DONT BAAN meee!!!!

Well I just wanted to set that straight, and for the record Mods can not ban only admins can.
