  • Could you not bump the topic when closing?

Due to convenience reasons, SHS will no longer be operating on this site! We are now located on facebook and are using discord for the chat. For information, our discord chat is here: https://discord.gg/84ue8Vv. It has been a pleasure meeting and serving everyone on this website, but if we wish to move on, we must start fresh in a new location. I hope everyone understands and we hope to see new and old faces. With all that is said and done, SHS is officially up and running again and we had our first tournament on 2/24/2017!! As discussed, we can still hold the 10 year anniversary party. - Thanks for you understanding! With love, Pijy

Could you not bump the topic when closing?

Yeah, it seems really silly.

I've noticed Rogue will make a post, thus bumping the topic, when he closes it.

For example:

He bumped this topic when closing it.

...

And once again, I think there should be a section for normal members to bring up things like this. I considered just PMing it to Rogue but I realized other moderators might be doing the same thing.

I personally see no problem with that, it just seems a bit nitpicky, after all its doing nobody any real harm. Also like I've said before if you want to make a suggestion go to your squads moderator, it is their job to represent your squad in such matters in the moderator hall. No Avatar

Yeah but... the topic is getting closed because it's old.

The idea behind closing old topics is so you don't have topic necromancy with people posting in old topics thus bringing them back up front with the new post marker.

So it seems silly that while you're closing the topic so it doesn't get resurrected, you end up resurrecting it.

Just close the topic and don't bother posting at all. Most people won't ever notice. People who are digging through can't do anything about it and probably don't really care.

rogue does seem to be closing the most topics
but thats a moderators job ...

maybe the mod wants to have a last word in the topic so that wen other ppl go to read it ... they'll understand why it was closed

This site is a little under a month old, we dont need an archive, we only got the archive on the old site because we were nearly a year old and there were pages and pages of colsed topics in some sections. The rule on closing a topic is to only close it because the conversation has reached its concolusion to stop off topic posting, necromancy is not a problem as long as someone brings something new to the conversation and the conversation starts up again, but if people post something thats already been said, or something people cant reply to then it is a form of spam. I personally have nothing wrong with people announcing the closure of topics because that way if the conversation is still relevant or new things can be added to it then people will have a warning of its closure and can contact a mod explaining why it should be opened, and having it opened.
Also I'm not going to tell the mods what and what not to do when it comes down to something so trivial as announcing the closure of a topic, so personally I see this thread as pointless.
