  3. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=197139&page=336

    I have never posted at this forum but have been a member for a long time and like this place, before posting this I also sent a PM to Salty Longshanks about this which never went through a week ago or was ignored (it was not in my sent pm folder) so I'm trying here.

    When the very popular 300 page thread was again closed I used thanks key understanding it has been closed a few times and some people cannot control themselves or read the rules.

    Having written that why should we get a message that you asked for it, you got it-----thread closed.

    For myself, I never did anything to force the thread to close or asked for anything, neither did most others, but this comes off like the one kid in school getting the entire class punished repeatedly.

    I understand most moderators/administrators this is all volunteer work, time consuming but why not simply ban those doing the chatting or making requests who need their own personal thanks, response, whatever, who refuse to use the PM to ask questions and leave those members doing the right thing posting images/movies/only using the thanks key alone.

    I have no movies or images to contribute to that great thread, but I will be glad to delete anything but updates if you need help as my contribution.

    Thanks for reading.

    Not sure where why first posting here disappeared (with high praise for this forum) but in short I asked why those who obey the rules have to be punished with a closed thread (again) while respecting that admin/mods have a lot to do already and did issue many requests for it not to be a chat thread.

    My PM to the administrator was not answered (also not in my sent folder) so I tried this.

    I have never posted at this forum, but been a member since 2010 and have followed that thread, my only contribution was to thank the useful posts via button per rules. If I had something to write it would have been in a PM to the person who was nice enough to post the content.

    Many of us who follow the rules did not do anything for the thread to be closed again. Those who felt the need to continually turn it into a chat, request rumor, or their own personal I must post my own separate thanks (instead of using thanks button) should have their privileges removed.

    Instead it was closed with you asked for it, you got it---thread closed.

    Most of us did not ask for anything and followed the rules in a 300 page thread many boards so not have back to 2007.

    Given I have nothing to contribute in terms of images/movies, I would be willing to delete any post without content so those who do follow the rules continue to enjoy an excellent thread open for years and have done nothing wrong as my way of helping.

    My intentions are respectful.
    Thank You.

    I put my own spin on it. Disappoint me and it's gone. It's just porn, it's not all that important in the greater scheme of things.

    I received your PM and followed your advice. Make any changes you believe appropriate to what I posted in the general forum that will help.
    Thank you very much.

    Baxter, you have six posts under your belt since 2010. The only threads you've started have been either to discuss, or to whine about the closing of a thread to which you haven't contributed.
    Why not put that "effort" into posting some content, as opposed to waiting for others to feed you your hand-i-work?

    As Scribe had no business/authority to re-open the thread in question without my approval, it's been closed again. Use this time to "gather up some good stuff" to share with the others. I know you won't let me down. :wink: :roll:

    When there's content to be had, the contributors to that thread will let me know, and it will be re-opened.
