Just wanting to make a wee post about something I had noticed recently.
I have been seeing a lot that there are threads on the site that are clearly inactive that get bumped up by people making accounts and posting (particularly on giveaways) that haven't been active for years. This then has a domino effect on other people seeing it in the recent posts and thinking its live.
I'm still pretty new to the site so was just wanting some clarification on whether there are moderators that are able to take down these clearly dead threads?
Another obvious solution is that those who are active on the site still could be more dilligent in taking down threads that they no longer intend to use, for example if a For Trade thread has been resolved the thread could be taken down by the OP deleting the first post. There is nothing worse than thinking you are going to be able to assist someone or gain something from a thread to be dissapointed
Thoughts from the community?
