Autolocking threads, though it can be done, isnt something that is visually appealing to anyone.
Old sales posts I may consider archiving , and allow no replies etc.....
Other areas, posts can be bumped, if someone has something new to add, we dont discourage bumping here, since we have some fantastic threads that really are timeless.
This hasnt been a real issue, but yes I can see that out of date market place threads are a nuisance, hence the reason for archiving neatly instead.

Also, I think MLPTP should have a points system, where a certain amount of contributions (i.e. donations, NOT posts) are counted up and used for reference when a user applies for a position, like Moderator. The users with the most points have a higher chance of getting a position.
Just a suggestion, but I think it would be cool  |
We dont allow monetary donations here at the MLPTP. If you wish to give something back to the community, the best way to do that is to give it as a free raffle etc. I dont ask for anything here, we dont have "donators" and "non donators" etc .
Eventhough point /Karma/Reputation systems exist on the board, they are not activated and not in use.

Mod Positions are not given out by ballot nor based upon points of any kind, nor are they based on post count. Ones suitability is considered, amongst other factors and those who would be suitable are approached privately.

It would be great to have new and old people read these stickies to understand more how buying and selling works especially when it comes to courtesy.
My issues are people who ask to have something put on hold and they disappear, with minimal communication or no communication at all (I know that I can put in my sales thread the length of a hold) but in the sticky maybe it can say something like, "as a buyer, it's ok to put something on hold with the intention on buying, but if it doesn't work out, PLEASE pm the seller to let them know you don't want it anymore.
Of course it already says it in the current sticky but yes- us sellers need to constantly update our sales thread to let people know what is available. I can't think off the top of my head right now to add more things . Maybe I'll come up with some thoughts later  |
Awesome suggestion, if youd like to write one, Id be most happy to sticky that for you.

Post counts are only posts, the new upgrade will change and widen the current subscription system however post counts will remain forum posts only at this stage.
Far as the upgrade, this is still to be implemented,
