Monthly update?
Posted: Tue Mar 02, 2010 5:37 pm
I forgot where is the monthly update located? has it been done for March?
I just posted the monthly report for March in the 'When' thread.ORIGINAL: SewerStarFish
It will be in the "When" forum which is stickied at the top of MWif's forum page. March's is not up at the time of my post.

I agree, is it possible to sticky a new monthly update topic, and only allow the developer to post?
I don't believe that is possible.[:(]ORIGINAL: celebrindal

I think what I will do is maintain the When thread but also create a duplicate thread that has just my monthly posts.ORIGINAL: flipperwasirish
No where near ideal, but you could sticky a thread and say up front all posts not of your making will be deleted. Discussion can take place in other threads. A problem with this is it should be absolute, the minute you leave a non-Steve post you open up a can of worms, and you're right back where you started.
Anyway, keep chugging away, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
My way of avoiding all the whining in that thread, is to only read posts from Steve on the When Forum.ORIGINAL: micheljq

Good I agree, a kind of locked thread that only the dev can update, so we do not have to look at the forum "when" and see all the whining about the release date. [:)]. The whiners can always post in another thread.[:D][:D]

But is that light an oncoming train?

I have to totally agree with you on the WHEN thing micheljq and could you please start that thread so I can whine on[:D][:D][:D] with out the whining routine I go through every month my life will be one empty shell. I can see you have no sympathy for whiners[:-] and have no idea what we go through, please a little more consideration would be deeply appreciated.ORIGINAL: micheljq

I don't believe that is possible... I think what I will do is maintain the When thread but also create a duplicate thread that has just my monthly posts.
"Lock it"? "Stickie it"? I am not sure what you mean.ORIGINAL: pzgndr

This would be good. Post a new monthly update each month, lock it, stickie it, and un-stickie the previous locked update and allow it it to expire.

Yes. Thanks.ORIGINAL: pzgndr

Forum mods can stickie posts up top like the current When? thread. Mods can also lock up threads to prevent further postings. Seems like a decent way for you and other mods to provide information without the distractions?
