See I'm just minding my own business and I think to myself, what a wonderful world. I mean I decided to bump some old topics because I thought it might help liven up cB life with some older topics and ish.
Then in fell swoop, someone f**king deletes it all. WTF IS THIS SHIT

why dont you go back and reread. That was 1 topic, and thats it. Most of my posts were legit. I'm startin to think the entire MOD group is pullin a buncha MINI SUZZETTES.
lol... Don't think I'm about to let you mods slide with a mini-Suzzette accusation, even if it's from a bunch of "spammers."

Those two have been dealt with. I went ahead and closed the irrelevant topics from 2004 that they decided to bump, I'm sure no one else will have a problem with that. Some of the topics are still open, so it's not like I closed every one. I'm losing brain cells having to deal with them.

lmaowtf, the topics weren't even deleted.
Well, different story then.
I saw there was another feedback topic too, but I didn't get a chance to see what it was about.

What about that then. I saw that topic and didn't really see anything wrong with it considering there's plenty of other Picture topics like that.
Were you the one handling the whole incident, Dee?

They said mods were deleting the topics

The only topics of theirs that I deleted were the spam topics that they made. And of course, the semi-nude pictures they posted in the Pictures forum. The other topics shouldn't be deleted. They were just bumped.
So, since this issue has been resolved, may I close your topic? (I'm on a roll, can't stop now

)
Edit: Opps, didn't see you editted. I deleted that topic because it was deffinitely against the Guidelines.

there was some topic about music that was deleted though right? i was about to reply to a post in one talkin about cam'ron and then when i tried to quote all the sudden the topic was gone.

Well, looking through the Trashcan there were other topics that were deleted before I got here. So I'm not too sure about those. In my opinion, they shouldn't have been deleted. Nothing is deleted unless it's advertising.
I closed the other topics from 2004 that were like "There's going to be an earthquake" and other current events that aren't, well, current anymore. It's pointless to have bumped those. Sorry about all this chaos guys.

Good going mods, so why wasn't that Martial Arts thread in the lounge closed then? brooklyneast05 said he was about to respond to a topic you guys closed. I bumped them because I wanted to dicuss hip hop. Making a new thread defeats the purpose because there were so many educated opinions and knowledgeable posts in the the threads that I did bump that could further a dicussion.

I didn't close the martial arts thread because it wasn't about a current event. Someone else got rid of the other topics that you guys are talking about. But apparently they aren't here right now.

The Lounge is a busy place, pretty soon it won't even be on the first page. At least I didn't go around deleting all the topics. Otherwise y'all would be complaining about that

I was under the impression, that it was against the rules to bump topics that were so old...especially 2004 old. Apologies to anybody that was legit, and wanted to have a discussion. My bad on that one.

Well, I'd say it's spamming if they're just going back through pages in the lounge and turning everything upside down just to be doing it. If it's one or two topics here and there, it's no big deal, but if it's someone filling the first page of the lounge with old bumped topics, that's wrong and "I was just trying to have a discussion" is just an excuse.
Simba

Hey, I'm just curious, did you guys change your policies about deleting topics? 'Cause I remember back in the day, normally you would never delete spam but just close it.

We started deleting actual ad spamming because we wanted it to actually stop. LJ support was getting bombed with it. I think you were here for that, though.
As far as regular spam, there's no rule that says it has to be closed rather than deleted; however, I'd say if it's in mass quantities (and the topic titles are inappropriate, as they were last night), it gets deleted.
