Id like to suggest a rule about bumping old threads...shit drives me crazy
post new in topic content or or dont post after it gets a certain age
I see threads here 6 months old and older get bumped here because someone simple says good job....

Yes I agree. It may seem like a minor thing and I'm sure those who'll get infractions or warnings for it will be like "WTF???" But I do find it annoying thinking there's going to be some new shit finally and it's a two-word comment.
While we're at it, how do people feel about there being a bajillion threads, like one per clip? Couldn't posters group them together, like by performer, or fetish, or even "all the stuff that fits in this category"? Is it better to have dozens of pages of threads, or threads with dozens of pages (but well-grouped)? Opinions please?
Sometimes a post in an old thread triggers me to read it. Mnay times I doscover a thread I never seen before! And there is nothing wrong to put a nice reply in a thread when you like it. The few seconds to read the two-word com is for me no big deal. So I don't agree this time with you.
I think it is better to continue a thread better than start a new one with the same subject. On the other hand, the 15 seconds of fame starting a new thread is important too.
I don't know if people are going to "group" together performers or themes, I think people are just going to continue to post however they want to. I like the idea of continuing threads, but if I only have one clip to post at a given time, I might just do a one time subject and never post on it again. I like to post multiple clips, and that is when I might add to a thread I started, even if there hasn't been activity on it for a couple of weeks or so.
If the threads are still here 6 months old or not, then someone who liked something or wanted to comment on it should have that right, otherwise just delete the thread. I'm sure alot of people aren't even really thinking about when something they comment on was posted.
I admit it irritates me too when I see a thread, go to the last page expecting an update as in a new clip or new pics and find "nice job" but then again that could have been someone's first attempt to get involved with the forum.

hmmm... not to sure about thread restructuring since most threads are pretty well filled out and it can make it easier to search something (IMO).... but I totally agree that the post bumping is annoying as shit; unless it's an unfilled request then fuck off; If you really love the post so much then add to the posters rep or send a PM... hell, even start a thread in general chat called "posts I like" or some such nonsense.... just don't waste my time or fuck with my balls by making me think there's new content when there's not...
woh, chill with the language dude...
its a fair comment but does it need to be so agresive.
ill have a think , see if there is something that can be done, but i also agree with ronaldbr, i also get tempted into and old thread..
lets see what others say.

I have to agree, newbies are always encouraged to post a word of thanks add a little bit to the reputation etc. I personally have bumped an older post or two myself to tell someone "thanks for the vids or pics." I mean I don't want to just be a lurker...I'd like to at the very least let these people know their hard work is appreciated.Originally Posted by theshape
Exactly my opinion.
I Agree with this comment as well, sorry Mike. I think telling ppl NOT to post, or discouraging those who want to contribute by posting a "thank you" is not right -if it means a thread gets bumped or not- who cares, member participation is a GOOD thing. A forum and its community is built by those who post and participate.
I think it doesn't happen as frequent as you make it out to be either really...
But -There have been some great older threads that get revitalized, and that has been nothing but a good thing.
If you don't like the thread, and you notice it's an old one you don't like, don't read it. Quite simple really.

I've read through every comment on this thread and the crazy thing is: EVERY one of them MAKES SENSE.
It is annoying when you have a child like feeling on the bottom of your belly when you think you've finally found new material on your favorite thread. But then you find out it was someone saying hi and the whole child like feeling visits Jackson's bedroom and the excitement is gone. On the other hand you might have forgotten your favorite thread and the new "HI!" post brings it up again and you'll find it.
It's more than a great idea to group the same kinda things onto one BIG thread. But how to do that? It's not easy to find similar threads to the post YOU wanna post. It would be even harder for mods to do that, to do all the work. Doesn't sound good either. I'm really not jealous of mods. A tough job they have.
So how to prevent millions of threads, all about one thing? Deleting them? By deleting threads we can lose something unique, something that can't be found anywhere else: pics, clips, stories, links, whatever.
If someone wants to thank about a post or just say what they think about a thread or a post, they should be allowed to do that. The freedom to say whatever you want is a privilege, that some don't have. After having that becomes the responsibility of what you're saying.
