Request... support.. something... via thread merge

So, I made a topic called something along the lines of 'Udsm, Jdm, Stance, hellaflush, etc' and it got merged into the topic 'speed machines'

I've pm'd a few mods asking why/ reported/ posted on the thread why, but had no answer... I understand it was merged for being similar, but the point is, it's not... car trends =/= Speed machines. The speed machine thread was directed mainly at stock cars and BIKES of which are fast... whereas my thread was aimed at car trends, such as udsm (it's actually usdm), jdm, stance and hellaflush.

My point is, merging the two topics is like merging lolita or something into a futa thread, purely because it contains a few futa images. Car trends =/= Machines made for speed. which mind you could be anything.

And to clarify, my thread was also japanese import related, and tifa's thread was general anything fast, be it trains, bikes, cars, etc.

I'm not so much annoyed at the merge, but the fact it was merged into a dead thread, created by a now inactive user, rendering the thread dead itself. I can't bump it, so therefore, we can't add to the thread, unless I was to ask jun or kouki to post something like 'cool images' or something every time I post, just so I can update it.

Can it either be un-merged, or me put as the creator, so I can bump the thread, and keep it alive?

I wonder if it's another mistake. Either way, perhaps you can talk it out with Gambler (or whichever Global mod) or someone and do a remake with clarification on the issue at it's top?

I think both are the same.
It has jap imports too and it doesn't specify that only speedy cars, trains, ect. are allowed.
It says 'beautiful cars'.
Just look carefully at the posts and you'll see.

I repeat, japanese car trends =/= speed machines. regardless of whether it says it has japanese cars in it.

Let's look at it in a more logical light. Speed machines implies speed, power and function... Jdm/udsm/stance/hellaflush all are looks, and are mostly form only. form =/= function.

@Rise, I did send a message to gambler.. but it was in response to a thread lock/ merge... of a completely differnt occurance. I should probably send him an actual pm about the issue at hand, and not slip it in on another pm...

It's just a thread title... =-=
It's basically a car thread.

Going by your logic, Vanilla is the same as forced, purely because they both contain sex.

It's actually like, loli = pettanko logic.

A car thread. Post cars there... that makes you or others nose bleed.

I see no difference in examples. One contains sex, one contains small boobs.

But anyway, All I want, is the ability to bump the thread, and keep it alive. Which I can't do at the moment, since it was merged into a topic made by an inactive user. this disappoints me.

You should know that there are other ways to have it bumped up if you truly care... =-=

And sad.... 'cause you can't see the difference.

^ that or have others post it for you.

huh... didn't think of that. Still, the issue of them being different still stands.

At least I can now bump them. Thankyou kaimax. Many ballsacks for you. (can't be arsed explaining. many <3's for you)

I'm not sure who merged your threads but if the staff members feels strongly enough that it should be merged and does not agree with you it's not something that will change. Again merge is a function we can't undo but I don't believe it was a mistake this time so unless you're simply asking if you can make another similar thread I don't understand what you want.

We have the system set in place so users can't bump their own threads multiple posts in a row, please don't do it now that you have a workaround.

So, if it's something you can't undo, can you suggest what Drifter should do? Should he make same thread V.2 or?

Your cars are shit anyways.. my bike could smoke your rice rockets without breaking a sweat of my balls. Also... car a car like music threads are chats and games. ^_^

Incorrect, you can split the threads... Or should be able to... Other forums do it, so if somebody goes horribly off topic, they split the thread as it's off topic, leaving original on topic, and the other on on topic of what it was... Essentially.

But otherwise, I was hoping I could have control of the topic, since it's dead, which I could do by starting another one, and you merging it into it, so I'm in control, or else iunno... But that would be good if I could do that.

I don't even know how to respond to you, it may work on other forums but it doesn't here, the mod would have to go post by post trying to determine which posts were part of which thread, and frankly the person who merged it still has not admitted to being in the wrong here. Regardless, whoever merged your topic has decided it's similar enough that they belong together and unless you convince them your words fall on deaf ears. As for you having control of the master thread that will also remain up to whoever merged your topic... It is possible, but I'm not sure they will agree to it. I don't really believe there needs to be a new OP and I question why you should have control over it but as I've said a few times now it's not my call.

I suggest Drifter attempt to reach the proper mod(I know you already have but it seems you were unsuccessful) plead his case, or explain why he should be in charge of the thread. Making a second version of the thread after a mod merged it is likely to cause problems as it did the last time users decided to ignore staff judgement.

Ah, righto. cheers dude.
In my point about the splitting threads, I mainly said that, cause the thread is still two threads in one.. as soon as my opening post starts, boom, the remainder of the thread is all about jdm 'n' crap...
But yeah, I'll try to get in contact with the proper mod, and see how I go. I'm sure a little debate with said mod can't be too harmful :D (assuming I find the one)
And the point about the being the new op, surely in nosebleed, op's are allowed to post multiple times in a row, to post more pictures, and keep their thread alive? I was thinking the copy, delete, add and repost thing would have been more bad... but if that's what it will take, I'll keep doing that I suppose.

Cheers dude :)

We dont condone people bumping threads multiples times in a row, it's in the rules. Nosebleed in general has different rules and it's for a reason but they don't apply to every section. If you're caught you might see some time off. What kaimax told you was a violation according to Jake. If you really need something bumped have someone else do it.

Righto dude, Shall try to organise that when I can, whilst trying to find the mod from nosebleed, and talking to him/her.

Thanks

In the past, we used to be able to split the replies in a particular topic. However, the function is currently unavailable, although I am not sure why it has been disabled. Perhaps I will speak to Jacob regarding the "split" function too.
