Hey, don't tell me to read threads more than a month old every time I want to say something...in case it has been said before. You mods sometimes gets annoying
Apologies DJM if I'm jumping in here...
Subwolf,
If moderators keep asking you to stop doing something, does that maybe give a hint that you are doing something which you shouldn't?
Posting in a thread that is a month old isn't a problem, is it? You do realise that topics are listed according to the date they were last posted in and NOT their original start date. So there is no risk of your post getting forgotten/ignored.
As for moderator action- look, if the forum contains a large number of identical topics then people are going to miss an awful lot of information, confusion and conflicts will occur. For example, there a topic about whether moderators are heavy handed or not. http://www.shipsim.com/ShipSimForum/index.php/topic,611.0.html Have a look.
Do you see what happens when duplicate threads are opened up. If you think a moderator is wrong- click 'report to moderator' and an administrator will investigate it for you.
I hope that clears that up.
