Any chance after a thread had been capped can they be deleted, moved to a new folder or moved to the end of the list, ie. on page 10 or whatever as its very annoying having 4 or 5 capped threads on the first page. I prefer having all the original/newest threads on the front page or 2 and these capped threads just clutter up the forums.
BTW: I appreiate this will be capped and will do as I've just discussed, just the only way I could think of getting the message across..
maybe you could delete it in time.
Sorry meant for queries..just saw it there!

Nice idea mate, it is kinda pointless keeping a capped thread.

Not really ste.
We usually cap a thread if arguing starts or if another one has been made.
In my opinion it makes it easier for people to find things on the search forum engine.
But in the case of it being capped for no other reason than conflict, it still expresses a point in the thread relevent to the subject.

A sensible idea would be scheduling certain capped threads for deletion.
So an administrator can check it over and decide if there is any need for it to exist.
That's what all decent forums do anyway.
The forum looks like a bit of a joke with 2/3 capped threads on every page. Just schedule all the pathetic nubby threads for deletion and it cleans up the forum.

Just cause a thread has been capped, doesn't mean it hasn't served some sort of purpose. It might be to show members how not to behave on the forum etc.
Capped threads only stay at the top for a short period until other posted threads go above it, I don't see it as a problem myself.
Deleting a capped thread with 95% good points on would be doing more harm than good!

It's never going to stop people from spamming.
95% of the members do it.

correct- it wont stop people spamming the forum but if a moderator caps a thread and they start another one then that thread can be deleted and they can have their posting rights removed... soon stops someone spamming

general chat is for general chat. People go on there to talk about general stuff that cant go on to any other forum. Its hardly spamming tho saying "good morning how is everybody".
Personally i dont use it but i dont see how it harms the forum in any way.
i agree the dedications thread gets too many people simply saying well done etc and thats why i rarely post anything on there now. But again it doesnt really harm anybody

No, general chat is for people to up their post count and have meaningless conversations they can have in PM or MSN.

That's not my point.
It was 1_eyes post that said him and the mods stop spamming.
And funnily enough he's moderating General Chat.
You don't need to be logged into the game, that's why the new messaging system was introduced, to surely stop the stupid spammers posting crap in General Chat?
The people in there double post, which is ugly. And post pathetic one liners.

well as i said before if it bothers u that much then dont read general chat.
the new messaging system doesnt allow you to send as many messages as people like Paula and John would need to, to ask everyone "good morning how are you" etc.
If just 20 people posted on gen chat on a regular basis and they wanted to ask them all that simple question that would use up their daily messaging allowance- any replies would then be unanswered as theyd have no messages left.
Im not saying i disagree with you that some people post basically nothing on general chat to get their post count up but i just dont look at general chat very often.
that way it doesnt bother me

I guess you don't see the purpose of "general chat".
