Enough with the 8 hour thread restriction already! Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

At least make it two threads per interval, or reduce the duration to 4 hours. You have no idea how many countless good threads are lost because people are unable to post.

Anyone disagree?

Oh... and give me a 5 thread per interval as 4 of mine always get closed. (j/k)

You mean like this one?

On the topic, I have no problem with the 8 hour interval, and the off-topic seems to be more tham amply filled with spam as is. I can't imagine how we managed in the days before the 8 hour rule.

CivNation announces that 'due time restraints, his work here is done for now.'

Anyway, Daffy, met any alien chicks lately? And are you, at the moment, homosexual?

They don't seem to want to do anything about it. The necessary code to change the restriction to 3 threads per day has existed for most of a year now, but they haven't done anything with it.

[note to admins]If you've somehow managed to misplace the code, I've got a copy of it. Just ask, and I can send it to you (hint, hint)[/note to admins]

No, I'm bisexual and have always been (it really sucks)... despite my failed attempts at being absolutely one spectrum or the other.


I have some propaganda that I am looking forward to instill in this forum quite soon. Be warned my organization is being renovated.

I gotta go with John here, I think we have more than enough spam. Last thing we need is two more POS threads like this one.

Put an end to popups!

First... I love the current rule.
Second... this belongs in the Apolyton Forum, not the OTF!

I think we should all just respect the rules that are made by the site owners and mods. They know what is best.

Why don't we make a tally to see who have made more than a thread in a day in the OTF in the last three months?
