You might not do that Luke, but I can imagine several who would:)

Ya just have to consider some threads unlucky.

Thats an awful idea, some people would abuse it. Besides, the mods do a fine job as is.

You could always report a bad post. After all that's what it's there for.

:stupid:

I agree as well because all the threads I make are always getting full of spam from people who hate the topic and I think that you should be able to delete those messages they put on.

Right, and thus why everyone isn't a mod. Look, the days coming where I'll be tossed out of Moddom in a bloody coup, but regardless of what side of the fence im on, heres the deal:

Threads digress, if you can't foresee that people will be deleting posts that don't seek to further their own agenda well then I don't think you'll get why they don't let you do that.

Report things, point them out, if its truely spam it will get deleted or the thread will be locked.

That's what I was getting at in the first place. I think you see the problem the same way that I do.

And I think it's a bit daft when you ask one person a question, then 30-odd other people post crappy messages after yours. And you're then left searching through ten or eleven pages to find the reply you wanted. That really pisses me off.

A little off topic here, but can we have it so Search Results include words of 3 letters?

Because often theres a band that has at least one 3 letter word and we can't find if somethings already been done on them, because the search doesn't do 3 letter words.

And more than 100 results would be nice too
