Trashing threads is very unfair and once this practice starts they can start trashing any threads

Trashing threads leads to reduction in posts, though not immediately. The reduction happens when they empty the trash bin.

It has happened to me and some members I know

A mod ( I won't name her as she is a nice person) accidentally trashed a thread. She apologised and recreated the thread. We thought nothing much of it. But after a few weeks many of us lost our posts. I lost around a hundred posts. We approached the mod. She said the trash bin is being emptied and because of that thread which was trashed by mistake your posts are getting reduced. She requested us to not take up the issue publicly. As she was a nice mod we dropped it

But if they start trashing the posts will surely reduce . And that's not fair, they should close those threads and make strict rules for not opening such threads

Also I agree members who are newbies and have never posted in years , they should be deleted

Games like add 5,add 2,reduce by 1 are not allowed on the forum as they are misused just to increase post count and add unnecessary load on our servers.

Hi Vijay, Thanks for clarification. it's always welcome to implement new rules to improve the forum and to ensure an efficient use of resources. But members due interest & rights must be honored.

1. No Rule Should be Implemented With a Back date, to be Fair to the Members Who Opened Those Threads & Posted Following the Existing Rules. So the threads violate new law, may just be closed instead of Trashing them.

2. Threads Opened in Other Sections violating forum rules, could be trashed, but then the Moderation Team should also bear the responsibility of not acting timely. The members posted there can't be held responsible for posting if there is a open thread. So please consider not to affect them by trashing threads. All such threads could be moved to FG if there content is in line with the guidelines of FG and the rest may be closed only.

3. I don't think anyone can say the adding or subtracting games are less interesting. It depends on individual interests. So trashing threads on your interest might be misleading. Something is interesting or not can only be determined by number of posts/visits the thread attracts.

4. There Must be a Proper Guideline For the FG Section, which is easy to follow and accommodates wide range of interests.

5. Why would you have a section & not count it's posts? That would reduce the number of members/traffic/posts everything. How do you benefit from allowing to post and not counting? Do you want to reduce members and traffic? Is this a liability for you? It's quite confusing & illogical, ill post and won't be counted..??

Once you circulate the New Rules, could you also please speak out the Vission & Objectives of the Forum? I think that's extremely essential, for members to act & also to understand why you make certain rules (ex: Serial 5 Above) & do They want to be here & help to achieve those? If you go by whim/jest, that's like playing with people's emotions. Not really appreciable.

Wiseman, Good points!

If overload on servers is the issue, the first threads to be trashed should be those numerous celebrity Happy Birthday threads and Anniversary threads for open/finished serials which run into thousands of pages just because fans sit and spam (art of spamming can be learnt from these useless posts). Compared to this, the games threads that have been trashed have some value at least
