I an I dont like this new setup of when I post back to back and they are connected..It makes it dificult to edit....
If nobody replies to a post and the same member posts something else in the same topic it is not necessary to create a new post since it is an after thought (or edit) to the original post anyway ...or at least should be. It also stops members 'bumping' their posts and therefor makes administration easier.
Then contribute to it. As far as I am aware it is still possible to reply to the archived topics. If they become active I may move move them out of the archives. I have archived the old topics since they are unseen with so many topics and posts here. The archive gives the opportunity to search old posts for topics that still need reading and perhaps further reasoning. I believe that this will enable I to keep current and popular topics alive and unnecessary topics archived, ignored and ultimately removed.
Apologies for breaking the reasoning with some administrative points that were raised during this thread.
