View Full Version : Call it a little nitpicky, but. . .

Just noticing Sephex's new thread about extremely un-extreme advertisments. . . There were a couple of other threads about advertisments that sprang up in General Chat about a month or so back, one concerning the best commercials ever and the other concerning the worst commercials ever (one of those threads happened to be mine). As it turned out, both threads were eventually moved to The Lounge and eventually disappeared into the depths of old threads.

So now, since the previous two threads were moved, and this hasn't been touched yet, my question is: What's the discretion used in moving two threads and leaving a third thread be if the topics are nearly identical?

It's probably a matter of a thread being noticed first of all, and on top of that, noticed by a staffer that thinks it's a big deal. Maybe the person that moved the other threads hadn't gotten to use any special abilities in a while, and was bored?

Who cares where the threads go? None of our business If they need moved they'll get moved.

It all depends on what the mod or admin thinks the thread should go at that period in time. Sometimes they get moved, other times they don't. No big deal.

I didn't move the first two so I guess I just didn't think to move the third one. :p I dunno about everyone else.

Yeeah, I know it's not a big deal. It was just something I thought was curious.

That's a little nitpicky.

That's how, it seems.

Express your opinions about EoFF, and any suggestions for improvement. I believe that includes the staff, yo.

strider should be banned for such an oversight.

their secretly arguing about where to put advertising-related threads using monkey-speak code.

Yeah, it just means that whatever mod moved the first two to the Lounge didn't see the third. It almost never occurs to me, for instance, to move a thread unless it's horribly misclassified (i.e., a FF-releted thread in the Feedback Forum)
