Answer da question.

I vote for closing them after 100.

Yup me too!

i voted no...sory.....but there are threads that realy don't need reopening for nothing

Errr....we're not talking about re-opening them Dexx...

yeah, i know...but i heard something earlier about closing an active thread after it's reached 100 and opening a new one to continue the discussion.
And why would you close an active thread?

because it's off-topic! queeqs establishments are for free chatting

Well the thing is, when you have new members coming on, they have to read 14 pages of a thread to get through it and by the time they get to make a post, its off topic.

Well the poll is pretty close till now...

i dunno....will you close the word game, Ep. III countdown thread, others too.
i hope not the role playing ones

Oops, I think I voted "no" when I was thinking "yes".

Oh dear.

Well now the votes are equal!
who will vote decisively?

Me.

I say close them once they reach 100, but only if they are off-topic.

Which they usually are.

But if they get off-topic really early then they should be closed immediately.

lol, yep VERY close at the moment.

If the 'YES' prevail, then all topics reaching the 100 mark will close...unless of course they're on topic (hah!)

Dexx- it is only off-topic threads that get closed, and in general this is a GDF rule. There will be no threat to any of the threads you list!

Gundy is right, the threads are far too confusing now.

Will somebody please vote and stop this suspense!!!!

aha, i see, ush

Also remember that the mods have full discretion with closing threads; it's never an absolute rule. If a thread is worth keeping open regardless then it will be.

Mech, you idiot. Do you want to change your vote ?

Well now everybody makes mistakes...

*whispers* Mech!, say no, say no

*whispers*Mech the Force will guide you...

I don't know Gundy, maybe I should have kept it secret in the first place.

If I vote twice for yes will that cancel out my mistake?

only if you vote twice no afterwards

You can't vote again. A mod will have to change your vote for you.

That if you don't upset them...

pinky, your saber, it's.............................................pink

And so very long.

Pink, long, working and i know how to use it...what more could a guy ask?

hohohohooohohooo..... ....is it realy thaaaaat pink and long. And do you reaaaaaaly know how to use it?

Meet me in...Mortal Kombat....

*stops laughing*
he doesn't get it

Well i didn't hope u'd understand u spiked headed guy!

not anymore......the avatars don't always represent the real person

U said it ElemeTal...

u see where discussions end when talking to pinks?

No!Where?

you said it...nowhere

Anyhow it appears threads will be closed after 100!

ooh...back on topic already, kewl

Well we wouldn't want to delete the thread where we actually vote if they should delete it or not...

well, why not...after the vore's over......i presume it''l be off with his head

I think u were wrong here...look at the poll now...

y should they close them when they get to 100????? lot of them r still active, and they seem to get to 100 really fast...

Once a thread is closed you can still read the thread. It won't disappear. And you can always start a new thread on the same topic.

i kno this...but wats the point of having to start a thread over again every time it reaches 100...

it seems that "No" is dominant at the moment.

Well this way the moderators will have more to do!

If they are way off topic and over 100 posts then they should be closed. If someone wants to re-open a topic then that will probably start back on topic.
If they have drifted to another topic and you wish to continue on that topic then quite simply open a new thread for that topic.

yea, but if theyre active then u should leave them open, even if they r off topic...

No, if they are off topic and it's a topic you want to discuss, just open a new thread for that Topic. I think it's OK for them to deviate for a while, but once they hit 100 then why not just close them?

correct

because if people r replying to it constantly then its obviously a topic that they WANT to talk about, even if the topic has changed...

But its a lot of reading for a completely new poster to catch up on.

Then open a thread for that topic, if I saw a thread title that I wouldn't like, I wouldn't read or participate, if that thread then changed subject to something I had an interest in then I wouldn't know, if someone opened a thread for the new subject then I could partake in the thread.

they dont HAVE to read it, they can read newer ones that have less in them and the people posting in the old ones that have a lot can continue posting in that one...

i think that if people interested in talking about something off topic in a thread they won't be interested anymore in talking about it in a special topic for it...

That'll be those with a short attention span and the idiots.

Has the poll been adjusted for Mech's mis-vote yet?

no!, and we're getting away with it too, mwahahahaaha

I just fixed it for Mech.

Ta.

15 votes. Thats probably about everybody.

do not close them...thats my opinion!let us speak our daily bullshit!hehe

So you're saying you don't mind catching up on 3-5 pages of crapola in a stack of threads after you've missed being here a day or two ?

Or are you one of those who DON'T READ BACK ??????

http://www.forum-smilies.com/brutal_33.gif

hhehe, I dont read back...only on the word game, i like to read every page..(ironi)hehe

hohohoh...that's the only one i don't read

Gundy, I like that Smilie especially the yellow Rubber gloves, oh wait it's all yellow.

U should have put it pink!That way everybody would of liked it!

r u obsessed with the colour pink??

Not really i like green too

noo...not green, u can hav ne colour but green, purple, and blue...

Bwahahahaha...GREEN!!!GREEN!!!

are you a girl or a boy?

me or pinky?? and leave the green alone, u cant have it!!

actaully pinky...but then again what about you!?

gee i wonder...im only marrying hayden, but i must be a boy, duh! im a girl!! people these days have no brains

I'm a boy...duh?!

well, pinky it's not that obvious

boys usually dont obsess over pink

maybe his one of those Boy..girls hehhe...joke!
And Sabrea, are you pissed at me now?

i intrerrupt for just a sec to get a little back ontopic....anyone voting......we're tight here

lets hope they dont close after 100!

no..im always like this, especially when i dont get a lot of sleep...

You should really stop stalking hayden and get yourself some shut-eye

i am NOT stalking hayden! the reason im u all night is the forum..

I don't get it!!!What if i like pink!Pink is a color too!!Just like blue,yellow etc!Plus like i said i like green too...green it's the color of geniuses

i already told u, u cant have green, blue, or purple

go on then...why can't he have blue, green or purple?

because

you seem to have pressed 'submit reply' before completing your answer.

...she's a spoiled child!!!

no, my answer is 'because' he cant have them because i said so, green is basically my trademark colour, almost evrything i get is green, and pruple and blue are back-up

I'm sorry, but I feel that you should not be allowed to monopolise those 3 colours just because you said so. I will no longer participate in this fruitless discussion.

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!K i guess i'll leave too
*goes to change his name into Greeny*

very funny...but its still my trademark colour

So what?....do you have copy right for green. purple or blue. As u notice, my saber os green. Pinky, how about a campaign to Bluey, purpley, and greeny nicks

You said it dude!Are u ready?

well...ergh...no.....i was just kiddin. I like Dexx too much

Chicken...

Pinky's name is fine by me. I don't find it girlish at all. And his avatar is EXTREMELY pleasing to the female eye.

As far as Sabrea having a monopoly on colors, thats not allowed here unless you've paid Raz in cash under the table first.

Thank u Gundy.It's good to know somebody here understands me.

Ah, they're just a bunch of bullies.

Nothing that a few hours in the ToMacco Smacking Machine can't handle.

I voted 'Yes'.

OK, so if this one goes off topic now it should be closed.

Well Raz does make the final decision.....

Raz...vote No...vote No

Raz is impervious to mind control. We tried that a long time ago.

Does that mean he's some ugly creature like a Hutt or Toydarian?

We've never seen Raz.

Gods never show their faces.

well..he did say he'll post his pic

I'll believe it when I see it.

he wouldn't lie...

I voted to close off-topic thread after 100 posts. Although I have a broadband connection I don't check the forum that often and I hate getting to the end of a thread and finding that it is way off-topic.

Well it appears this thread is going to be closed...

It is still sort of on topic and the rule is that they are closed after 100 if no longer on topic, I think it is anyhow.

we're loosing here....c'mon, somebody, help us.......

some1 go register under another name and vote no j/k...

You, know....u're a source of inspiration, you...hehehe ..

i was kidding

We already had one sock epidemic here with queeq.

Don't you guys see Orpheus' point ? And I know Orpheus - he's a good guy.

Try staying away for just 2 days and come back. And see how many pages have added up on some of these threads. Now I know its difficult to stay away for that long from this place of normality and common sense, but just try.

OK.

actually, i was going away for a day or 2 to get away for a while...so byebye.....

she'll be back in ten mins....max!

dexx thats cheating...u already knew i was back and how long i ws gone for...

eeergh...the force told me...

no it didnt, the other threads told u...

not...

OK, the public has spoken.

From now on (in the GDF at least) all threads will be closed when they reach 100 and are off topic.

If they are on-topic they will remain open.

Certain thread may remain open at the mods discretion, such as the bar and the game threads.
