Deleting posts inactive for two months.

TwlohasGSDs · August 2010

I was thinking, we should have posts in General Discussion, General Services, Commission Corner, etc, that were inactive (meaning no one has posted on it for that time) for two months or more deleted. We already have this on Breeding Leases, Dogs For Stud, General Sales, K9's For Sale, and Wanted sections. It could save a lot of space for other coding, especially since General Discussion has over 100 pages of posts. XD I wouldn't say all should have that.. maybe we could have a request to delete a post? I understand if you'd need to keep Tips & Tricks, etc, but maybe have a limit to how long a post exists. Maybe a limit of one year? Or 6 months? This was just something I thought up. I really think we could save a lot of space if old posts were deleted.

I like this idea. ^_^

I disagree. ._. I still have a lot of old threads up that I use for reference a lot of the time. I made posts, for examples, in the Artist's Alley, with pictures that I don't have saved anywhere else for whatever reason. I think it's fine for things like Trainoffs or Giveaway sections, but not the art ones. I still use those. ._.

I see your point. I was thinking thinking not all the posts... but I think we should have an option to request the post to be deleted. For instance, you'd have to be the author of the post to be able to request.

See, that I would wholly agree with, but it'd be a lot of additional work for the ops. xD

That is a good point. XD

I like the click to request deletion idea ^_^

Howdy, Stranger!
