By all means quote the bit you are referring to but we seem to get some threads where one nested quote post fills an entire page up by itself.      Report

I've already reported one thread. No excuse for it, and it really is just trolling. If it was me I'd see yer banned.    Report

If I've missed any let me know. Those responsible have been told to stop bumping old threads. If an old post is relevant to a current thread then post the url in the thread rather than bumping a post from 5 years ago to the top of the forum.    Report

By all means quote the bit you are referring to but we seem to get some threads where one nested quote post fills an entire page up by itself. I agree - it's even more annyoing when people quote an entire conversation that's the last post in the thread. Surely if you're replying to a post that's directly above yours, you don't need to quote it? Unless there's a certain bit you want to single out.    Report

Im not having an argument, and I wont do it again as per your request, but would just be interested to know the reasons behind this rule. Thanks, Ry.    Report

No I dont think I did read this to be honest, where was it? I think I may have missed this whole chapter in the pink un forum to be honest, I bumped 3 threads yesterday, but have obviously missed some kind of regular thing......    Report

Although I get your point, I dont think that you can refer to the bumping of threads as 'spam'.  Spam is a term which relates solely to the sending of unsolicited emails. I havent sent any emails.    Report

This board has for a long time been one of the best boards around , full of good debate and plenty of banter. Unfortunately, since the format of the board changed, many people have joined who don't appear to have the will or intelligence to join in. To make their mark they tend to play childish games either by bumping old threads or making multiple threads on the same subject. The result is that serious threads about NCFC are quickly pushed off the top only to be replaced by drivel. Hope that helps. Cor blas bor thas bin hard gorn, bu thas gorta git batter.    Report

No... Spam is not just email, or a repulsive food source. If I made a thread called "wiidjwdowodjoo" and posted "wushiudswsi" that would be "Spam"    Report
