Blackened dawn it was a harmless petition (suggestion) no need to act as a dictator with such censorship. it was in general discussion. if this is how general discussion goes with other players then you can have it. but do what you need to feel good.

yeah I also would like to know why the thread deserved to be locked

The locking of threads lately is totally unorganized and out of whack imo
Like how tf is someone supposed to post what they like if they revive an old thread with potential it may get locked due to everything being considered necro post, If they attempt to make a new thread to avoid that, THAT can be locked and they are shown older already made threads.

Sometimes threads are locked just because someone simply doesn't LIKE it while others are having casual fun with the topic literally no harm

the logic is so stretched out

Dawn's just harsher on the rules and cracks down on the breaking of said rules.

But aye let's THEIR opinion of this.

@Blackened_Dawn

Because i said so

mostly locked due to your attitude to R4's reply

@Jericho_Tsunami i didnt ask for the rules. i asked for a signature

to which, by the way, what r4 said isn't a rule, it's actually a fact.

plus wblaine doesn't hold the highest attempts at parkour since @afritz9500 had over 3k attempt when she completed the parkour in the 1.8 map and many others have gone higher than both of these players

not only would've the petition not worked, but it's not relevant to the current map, which I do admit the current facts aren't updated either but more things take priority

and @Pimpcy so what you're saying is i should lock the selfie thread? tell me more, ms. owner.

I've seen faction threads with vital info still on them get locked that can and were still in use that just shits all over the gameplay and trying to connect members for your team?

I've seen threads with potential get locked I mean who's to say "witty weapon names" are going to be locked due to it being old when so many people can come back with new ideas.

And silly, harmless, ones get attacked as well just because someone doesn't like it give the players some freedom come on.

https://forum.craftymynes.com/3528-strangers-company-faq ( still could of been edited or updated in the same thread unless the owners wanted it locked I don't see the issue)

https://forum.craftymynes.com/4311-fix-invisibility-potions ( I agree this one was heavily debated and pushed but the person never got the promise of it being unlocked and notified idk if it was solved or not but worth mentioning the actions)

https://forum.craftymynes.com/4550-sever-fact-petition

https://forum.craftymynes.com/1316-craftymynes-history-so-far ( small games like this and little lore, stories, etc getting locked when people are still having fun with them makes no sense unless the original poster or majority of people deem it unworthy to continue I don't see the problem)

https://forum.craftymynes.com/746-rule-exception ( don't know if this got solved in pm or not but makes no sense locking if the same situation occurred is it that triggering to respond in an old thread when the issue still exists? )

it's not a matter of leniency, Locking random threads with barely an excuse and not wanting to deal with them is more on the slacker side.

these are just few of the many examples

Lmao why is being the owner brought up when I was simply stating an opinion makes no sense it's just useless snark.

The discussion is about locking old threads that are inactive still with potential
not something constantly ongoing like the selfie thread again ur on the wrong page

https://forum.craftymynes.com/3547-sc-application-template - stranger company FAQ is included in this new thread which, under factions, is right up there as #4
https://forum.craftymynes.com/4311-fix-invisibility-potions - both players were given an early warning to cool it or be lock, which they didn't cool it, thus got locked. the decision behind it is up to Crafty and trust me, the OP hasn't let go of it.
https://forum.craftymynes.com/4550-sever-fact-petition - reason listed above
https://forum.craftymynes.com/1316-craftymynes-history-so-far - as green said, 6 months to revive a dead thread? to which soviet made a new "updated" version?
https://forum.craftymynes.com/746-rule-exception - 8 months old

Threads shouldn't be locked because of certain people replies or arguments. You should just delete there replies and warn them that if they continue break rules or not listening to staff they get banned from the forums.

Or maybe we've spent too long dealing with clutter in the forums.

Some of those responses weren't even answered correctly I could go on forever debunking all that but I'm not going to stray away from topic it would be useless focusing on examples to the MAIN but those were added in there for support

Dark actually gives out a good plan and explains further unreasoning of the actions
Also threads can still be deemed worthy age shouldn't matter if there's still potential to said thread and or the OP doesnt want said harmless thread locked for updates. Why waste your time on it?

It doesn't require heavy observation, deleting comments vs locking threads takes up little time between the other I think staff find more satisfaction just locking things here and there and not wanting to read a few messages. you guys are always on the forums it's not like it's rare to see a staff colored name?

Well this blew up. Stop arguing why either side has a point and find a consensus

There should be a rule to stop people from posting irrelevant comments that don't pertain to the current topic =D

@raw0rz There should be a rule to stop people from posting irrelevant comments that don't pertain to the current topic =D
