We are not the ones constantly whining about a board that we don't even care about it.

I think some people (at least the more intellegent) bump threads by accident... I mean, I like to browse older threads. So if they found some interesting they wouldn't think of it.

Also, the FAQ thing sounds great. Before creating user you would be presented for the FAQ and the rules and after that, you would be taken to a quiz or a test to confim that you actually read it... That would be awesome.

Heh, the FAQ on this board is quite useful for newbies yes. But it's quite outdated.

And people bump topics becuse of mistake, they seldom do that for being evil. They do that becuse they don't know better.

...Legion did post a intresting thread about revamping the bumping rules. Most was for it.

But as I said last time, the bigger the bump. The better reason must you have... (bumps dosen't bother me as long they aren't offtopic... ~_~)

Actually it was updated last year. It's not that out of date - if you follow everything in there you SHOULD be OK.

And if people are complaining about the quality of posts, that should be a HUGE warning sign.
