But it says in the rules or however they name it basically not to make duplicate threads. I've made a duplicate thread so it should be deleted. If that's not the case then why was I told to check the page with the rules on?

You're right, we should ban you

I wasn't pointing out the rules, I was showing you were the links are to the older popular threads. They just happen to be on the same thread

As Andy said, new content posted on an old thread that hasn't been posted on for a long time does something weird (that's about as close I come to a technical term) to the database (and Andy should know as he, along with R are the admin, and therefore the brains of the operation.Yes, I know how screwed that makes us )

It could use a little fine tuning to leave a link in the last post of the old thread and the first post of the new thread.
And links to both in the popular thread thread.
Then there's renaming the thread........

This could take time, someone get the emegency Jammy Dodgers

Okie dokey.
Had a little mess around and all done.
I've kept the same format we used for the last time we set this up (that is one thread for just photo content and a thread where people can leave comments).

This is the chat thread.
Please feel free to copy and paste posts here from the photo content thread and leave your comments.

I understand what you're saying but then at the same time there are procedures and policies to follow!
Please dont get me wrong I dont want to be banned from here at all! I believe I've made a fair few friends on here but at the same time is it fair to work around my ~~~~ up?

Default temp thread

So there's a thread for pics, and an entirely seperate thread for talking about the pics?

What happened to just...threads?

Yeah, agreed. Seems like a waste of time and a pain in the arse to me, looking at a pic in this thread, going to another to talk about it....

When the pic thread was started there were requests to split the threads because there was too much chat between members photos.
Believe me, it wasn't the mods that were making the requests

In the end the only solution was to have two threads. One for the pics and one for the chat.
It was, believe it or not, a popular move at the time.

It may seem to be a pain in the arse bouncing between threads.We might agree with you.But other people thought it was a pain in the arse looking through 20 pages of chat to see the pics of the people they were talking too.We might agree with them too.

End of the day, you can't please everyone


And just to keep in my place as one of the poor suffering benighted ~~~~~~s that have got to try and keep everyone happy while also doing the general maintainance, i'll put these posts in the chat thread

BTW, for those interested, pics were first split from chat about pics on 13 Dec 2003.

They have stayed that way ever since.

When I first watched Wario's Anything For Love 2011 Style video I experienced one of those outer body sensations. I really believed it was me
The resemblance was uncanny and I still can't differentiate Wario from myself in some of those poses. Imagine a slightly slimmer Wario and chip in a sprinkling of Rodney Trotter and you have me. It ain't a nice combination, but it works
Wario, I think we might be out of same gene pool !!!

And Mrs. Chairboys has just described me as Rodders with a big hooter.

well if you want to know what I look like, just look at my profile pic here. I am the woman in the hat who is not CC Coletti - LOL. I am being too lazy to go to the other thread and figure out how to post a pic there
