[📢 PSA!] Keep the Forum Clean!

Keep the Forum Clean:

This is a rather short public service announcement, but when you’re help topic has been resolved, please change it (or get a TL3) to resolved. You can do this by putting “[RESOLVED]” in the title, or changing the tag to resolved. This will help @moderators like @Jeffo to close the topics.


Solutions:

@here After some time, the moderators added solutions! You can now mark a post as a solution to lock it! Topics in help that have been solved now have a “green checkbox” next to them. Be sure to click the “checkbox” next to a post to mark it as a solution!


What about the 30 day editing limit?

This can be quickly resolved by getting a Trust Level 3 user to change the title, which they can do for basically an infinite amount of time.


What if I still have a question related to the topic?

You can click the “reply as linked topic” button to create a new topic that has almost the same purpose as the old one for your new question.


Conclusion:

The forum is very valuable, and the devs are great to have made one. Remember to not let this one end up like the old forum, and keep it clean!

Nice guide, @mysz! Another solution for

is to add the tag partially-resolved IF the new question is very close to the original question.

This reminds me, why doesn’t the forum have Discourse Solved - plugin - Discourse Meta yet? It’s another idea to make the forum even cleaner

Not sure. In my opinion that would be better for a forum like this.

I sent the mods a PM. They don’t usually respond, but I hope they see it.

They still didn’t respond on my apology… Do they think that apology is a joke and i’m just wasting their time again?

I’m not talking about wix, i’m talking about the mods.

Yeah I was going to edit that but you typed first. But the mods are pretty busy, so I would say it’s safer to not send them an apology.
