Hi ED, I've noticed lately that alot of AB users are having real problems posting questions. We had the same problem some months ago when long threads where allowed to go on. I've no problem with long threads, but if they disrupt the site why do you allow them. When I say long threads, I don't mean 100 posts, I'm talking about 1,300...surely this make the site unstable. Also it's not fair on the new users, they legitimately want to post on this site and can't. Oh I'm prob gonna get a tounge lashing now...I don't care though......it's unfair.

i think there is something in what u say bez, this one running for over a week now in b&S makes interesting reading on some pages but to have it getting up to over 1300 and then some users complaining the site is not running right you have to wonder.

Dot, we all know ED is not around at weekends, so alot of the posting go on the long threads then. I'm not saying remove it, what I'm saying is "get each others MSN addys and say what you need to on there"...Oh I've got a right cob on tonight......lol.....not over overposting btw....lol

perhaps that post was responsbile for the trouble other people had posting long answers, I don't understand these techie things, not being able to handle a screwdriver. But if so then maybe all threads should close automatically at 500 (roughly the length at which the biddies decamp); surely the robots could manage that?

492 to go...

jno you are probably correct, these long thread serve no purpose and the vast majority of those posts on there should have been removed as sexually explicit anyway.

[Redbel]

Good idea Jno, I was thinking along similar lines.

[drestie]

I am actually completely shocked at how sexually explicit some of those posts are, tuppence. And there is no report option, which means the Ed has allowed them. So much for this being a family site :(
