New Idea For Second Posts !

Avatar of badenwurtca

With V3 we are having a little problem where a person might " inherit " a thread from someone else. That is to say the 2cnd person to post in a thread would inherit that thread if the OP is deleted ( or deletes himself ). Therefore it would be a good idea for the 2cnd person to quote the OP for the record.

   ---   Just as in this example because I'm now on record as the OP of this thread, unless of course I get the old heave-ho from the site  lol.

For newer members who had not seen V2 there was a way to tell when someone deleted a post in that system.

... or perhaps a forum member who inherits a thread could automatically be given a new Achievement: Diodochi

Yes it has just happened to a staff member. Yup the OP of a thread on rudeness left and pushed the thread onto someone else ( what a Big Meanie  lol ).

   ---   Okay people let us be very very careful and remember to quote the OP if we are the 2cnd person to post in a new thread ( hey needless to say nobody wants to inherit the " Fischer Was A Ratfink " thread  lol ).

I'm hopeful the site will revert to being unable to delete the first post.

Yes it goes on and on so please make a quote of the first post by the OP of the thread that you are going to be the 2cnd person to post in ( oh the humanity the humanity !!! ).

Avatar of badenwurtca
