So I think Jun's a master chef, because he takes off his helmet and your like whoa, I think he's a chef.

So to shorten this up, Jun is master chef.

This has been truly confusing me. In The Classifieds, you are not supposed to reply to topics, yet almost every single thread has at least one response. It seems like absolutely no one cares, just like with the File Forums.

There could be a solution for the lack of moderation, however. Why don't we just make threads unreplyable (Couldn't think of a better word)? This could greatly help to make The Classifieds function the way that they should.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

In some cases I think a reply could be necessary, but in general yes, that is a good idea.

Sounds reasonable to me.

Some advertisement or group recruitment topics were originally created in the wrong forum. So instead of locking them, a moderator would simply move them to The Classifieds forum. That is why some threads in that forum have replies. The members that reply to a thread when displayed in The Classifieds forum are violating the forum rules. The best thing you can do is report the post and move on. If there are multiple reports, someone will look into the situation at hand.

Hello.

This has been discussed quite a few times.

In my opinion, it would help. But, like Top_Gun said, there may be some cases where a reply is necessary.

There are many threads that were not moved. Here are some examples:

http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=18265053
http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=18250345

Those are just some of the threads to show you that there are people responding to topics. Unfortunately, many, many people, ultimately, get away with this, and there is really no way to constantly watch over the forum and make sure nothing happens. I would like maybe an auto-lock when a topic is made there, but it can still be unlocked by a moderator if a member requests it and it is necessary.

I believe they need to amend the rules saying "No replying..." Some threads need replies, and No I am not talking about the OP Bumping their Thread.
