New Forum! Feedback thread

[RedheadDane]

Alright @SHaines, (since you don't actually want us to give feedback in the relevant threads), I'm going to assume this rule:

Check the date of the last post in a thread before replying. If the most recent post is more than 3 months old, create a new thread on the same topic. You can link to the previous thread as reference, but we want to avoid “necro” posts that attempt to resuscitate old threads.

does not apply to rider - or team - threads. There's a reason we have that index; so people won't have to go create new threads every time a rider does something. After all; it's not unusual to have periods of three months - or longer - during which a rider is rather quiet.

Don't worry, we look at any posts to old threads and check to see if it's relevant to bring it back.

So, basically like it's always been done? I mean, I can understand why you don't want people/spammers to resurrect old threads to make a one sentence statement.

Yep. It’s good to have things formalised in the rules, but we’ll look at things rather than apply blanket rules where we can.
