Why do you keep repeating this pattern of just bumping old threads for sport? It is tiresome and disruptive.

Quite frankly, Cristiano... I personally find your posts both negative, disruptive, and quite often off topic.
I'm here to talk about SL. If you want to get into your little interpersonal disputes with Coco or whoever, feel free to take it in world. But I really have 0 desire to get involved to read your petty little disputes with people. For that matter, if you have something you'd like to say to me.. Feel free to do it in world as well. These forums are not a place to address individuals directly. _____________________

Yes, it is highly annoying. If you need attention, do something cool.

These forums are not a place to address individuals directly. You are not here to talk about SL, Blaze, you are here to play silly little mindgames with people and brag about how clever you are that you can game the forums with your alts. Whenever you get bored or are in need of attention, then you are all over the place. I could honestly care what you think of my posts, as I have zero respect for you and the fact that you need to hide behind fake identities to play childish games. I don't believe 99% of the crap you post anyway. _____________________

Mommy and Daddy went on vacation and you are home alone bored? _____________________

I agree. It's fun once in a while but all the time is bothersome. Even if participating in discussions is no longer interesting, try to resist playing with the forum for fun and attention. Use moderation, grasshopper.

Well, maybe you guys should give the interpersonal bull a rest and then maybe we wouldn't have go around fishing for something interesting to talk about.
It's always "Coco" this or "Prokofy" that... just give it a rest people. No one cares what you think about Coco or me or whoever and all you do is simply get people riled up endlessly. When is it going to end? _____________________

Just a General question about TOS and forum tactics. If somebody wanted to bury one or more current threads by bumping a few dozen old threads (pushing the current conversation off the front page). Would that be against CS? Is this a practice the Lindens are OK with?

Yes, they have stated they have no problem with bumping old threads.
Most likely because they are tired of interpersonal whining as much as I am. _____________________

The easy solution would be to lock any thread which is more than 3 months old without new posts. Probably could do that with a single moderately complex SQL query on a cron job.

Fuck, it's always "Coco" this or "Prokofy" that... just give a fucking rest people. No one cares what you think about Coco or me or whoever and all you do is simply get people riled up endlessly. When is it going to fucking end? You talking about getting people riled up is quite simply rich, Blaze. You post in the contrary all the time just to incite people, and push whatever buttons you can. You are the original shit stirrer in these forums. When Prokofy was here, you would constantly jump on the bandwagon with him. It stops when not every single thread is about how wronged poor Coco is, how evil the rest of us/Lindens are, where everything is not some fucking conspiracy theory of favoritism and sucking off the Lindens. The moment those posts stop, it stops. It stopped the second Prokofy left until Cocoanut picked up the torch and moved right in. _____________________

Besides, there are some really interesting threads from a long time ago. Why not bump them? I find it interesting to delve historically into SL.
Helluva lot more interesting then weeding through some interpersonal drama between forums. _____________________

Wow Blaze I am impressed. We haven't seen a forum turn in personalities like this since Anshe turned nice after using the n word. This is really astonishing. Just a few short weeks ago you were shit stirring and whining to your hearts content about IP address, FIC and the injustices of the world, despite the fact Trimda handed your ass to you on a platter about IP addresses, you continued. Now, wow, now you are all about peace and harmony and bumping old threads in an effort to cleanse the board of the dirty taint of whining that you feel exists.
The high road which is often highly promoted as the way to go by the masses , really isn’t working for you. We miss the bottom feeder we learned to love to hate. Will the real Blaze come back? ![]() _____________________

This mod for vBulletin will do it. It uses vBulletin's own vCron module, which presumably just talks to cron. ~Ulrika~ _____________________

Will the real Blaze come back? ![]() Not until Blaze has promoted the "SL is wonderful, my sales rock, the system is stable!" mantra enough to ride it back to L$ stability in order to profit off of the success of the gloom and doom market crash alt campaign. It is all beautifully orchestrated. _____________________

Though I do dislike the practice of censorship/obscuring-by-bump that seems to be occuring here, I do feel that bumping is useful for certain forums, namely the feature suggestions forum - if a person wants to contribute to the discussion of a particular feature mentioned in a prior suggestion, then the preffered option (IMO) would be to bump the old thread with their new opinion.
