Concise description:
  • Delete all the forum posts older than 7 days

Specifics/Details:
  • It was done once before, it should be done once again

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • Less necrobump spamming
  • Will fix all the game lag
  • I will spend less time here so more time to better my life.

This should be interesting.
I received the brunt of a major PL-led hate campaign when I was FALSELY accused of deleting the forum archives. Now, D-Yoshi, who was one of the major instigators of the groundless smear campaign (note his anti-Tea sig) is openly advocating for an even more extreme mass deletion of old forum threads.

Will he also be harassed and maligned, though in this case with good reason, or will his good ol' boy PL connections save him?

Standard CC policy is usually 'it isn't what you did but who you know (and what you lick) that counts'.

So let's see suxisuxin, Mr. swdk, TA1LAS5, notU2, etc etc. come out of the woodwork to defend their precious OT forum heritage now.

Or will CC's typical hypocrisy and unfairness rule the day once again.

Do we really need a/the forum? I say let's keep the foundry and announcements and suggestions and callouts and get rid of the rest. (Maybe keep tournaments I dunno) No need for offtopic BS here.

Doom Yoshi your petty anti-forum suggestion may yet slowly snowball into a the next inevitable zeitgeist, Nevermind that it was born from petulant spite and it's subsequent ennui...
As for me, ultimately it matters not, I'm already gazing over the edge of the cosmos, waiting only for the void to flare up one last time into the ultimate show of fireworks.

Totoro is correct in saying that Suggestions is a completely useless forum.

Some people enjoy talking about offtopics BS. Sorry if you find no joy in it, but having those option available for those who do isn't hurting you in any way.

Indeed, and that is true for so many things people fret about on CC. The n****bump-fearing witch hunt brigade needs to learn and embrace such a 'live & let live' philosophy.

True enough, the site does not need all the ad revinue from extra traffic of people posting in forums.

They can charge much more for premium memberships instead.
