Thread rearranging

Postby Neutrino » 16 Jan 2015, 12:48

Can the mods please be a bit less enthusiastic about rearranging forum posts all the time. First the ASF thread was locked. So I made a post in the pre-existing air balance thread. Now that thread has disappeared and its contents moved to Suggestions and merged into the ASF discussion thread, which is now unlocked again.

So now it seems we have a Naval Balance thread in General Discussion, no Air Balance thread at all, an ASF discussion thread in Suggestions which is now no longer a discussion about ASFs but is instead a discussion about air balance in general, and every time I open the forum it takes me 5 minutes to work out where everything has been moved to.

Forums generally work best when mods limit themselves to moderating bad behaviour and otherwise allow the community to have whatever discussion they want to have, however they want to have it, instead of trying to enforce their view of what set of threads it is permissible to have being discussed at any given time.

P.S. I love the mods, they do a great job, but can you please be just a little bit more 'light touch'. Thanks.

Light touch = people complain the forums are too messy :)

As for air balance thread being in suggestions (and it's name)- that's a mistake. It's supposed to be here. And it's been renamed. It may be in the future that newer threads are created for these express purposes about the various topics to avoid confusion (as is explained below)

The main problem with all the confusion is because people split up into various threads that don't go anywhere.

Then, instead of a clear forward process, another thread is created on the same topic which repeats what's already been said and then also stagnates.

To avoid this, I direct you here -> viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9225

If you do find any problems then i encourage you to talk to us about it, but as Sir Prize said, it's far easier if people message us directly.
