Write the reason you're deleting this FAQ

Hello ClerkNation,
I have a suggestion regarding the Suggestion & Feedback forum. My suggestion is to add a locked Sub-Forum and call it "Completed Archives". This is because, when suggestions & feedback that are very outdated and just starting to cluster up the Suggestion & Feedback forum can be moved there, still to be accessed but will help clean up the Suggestion & Feedback forum to help the staff & even members see what threads are still needing to be seen and so that we don't waste our time replying to threads that are months old and no longer serve a purpose.

Thoughts?

Regards,
Jadster

I think that suggestion would be worth looking at, or at least figure out different ways to go about it. In many existing forums, they tend to remove threads after they are aged, and collecting dust. They don't delete them as people can still access them through profiles.

There are so many things a person could do here to make it more organized.
There are a few thing which are taking up a lot of unnecessary bandwidth now.
For example here's some:

The WTB section and all the "Completed" Or "Ended" listings
Alerts you can't delete
Messages you can only put in archives

Imagine what it's going to be like another year down the road!

Thank you NaturalWriter,
I feel that those examples can help but my suggestion was more for this specific forum but your idea works as well. And I do hope a staff can see this soon but I know how busy they can be so I won't bother them with it now.

Regards,
Jadster

I have a "Resolved Issues" sub-forum in my Feedback & Suggestion forum on my own website. Want to see something similar added here then? This way old threads about fixed / resolved / dealt with issues and suggestions can be kept away from the ones that people are still talking about.

That is exactly what I mean

That way it would just keep this more organized and make it easier for the staff to handle the topics that still need attention.

That is an awesome idea! That will help the clutter in the forum a bit

I have now added this suggestion..
From now on, after your suggestion, issue, etc.. is dealt with, the thread you created in the Suggestions & Feedback will be locked and then moved to the new Resolved / Archived Issues sub-forum.

Ill now have a look through each of the threads closing the ones that are dealt with and old and it will soon be clean and tidy with only the current feedback & suggestion in it.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will leave this thread open for now to see if anyone has anything to say or ask, etc.. about this new addition, but then ill go ahead and lock this too and move it with the rest.

Have you given any thought to the "Bumping Business Better" thread, or the "Cleaning Up The WTB Section"?

I think all or almost all of the current threads are now active, ones that die off though will be archived when the time comes.

I will go ahead and lock and archive this thread too, if anyone has any other feedback, questions, suggestions, etc.. feel free to create a new thread in the Suggestions & Feedback Forum.

Thanks!
