ok, i'm getting tired of this.
so this is a message to all you guys who do this


STOP BUMPING OLD TOPICS

all the newer people come here and since there's no activity at the moment they sign up they just start to comments on topics that are way too old to be in the recent topics list

just saw sairos' topic with his sig of 2.5 months ago somewhere on the top of the list of sigs&avatars forums.
whats the meaning of this, people who made those topics don't have any help with the comments on old signatures or questions or whatever

i'd also like to higlight another similar thing that happens sometimes with people who are bored
the "hey, let's comments on all topics in the list" effect of boredness

they open all topics they see on a forum page in tabs in their browser and start commenting on everything they see even if they only can say "lol" or in sigs&avatar section "nice sig" or something like that
plz don't do this either, or atleasy pick out the more recent ones and go of the list so that you comment the newest topics as last ones so they stay on top of the forum list so they keep a chance of getting more comments on what they ask or whatever!!!!

thx for reading and i hope you agree with me

note: if you ever did one of the 2 things listed here, don't be ashamed, mad or whatever, just don't do it again. thx :)

how long exactly are we talking about ... i know in some forums theres an Archive where old topics are moved to.

so is a 2 months topic already dead, and what is the limit here are we talking about 2-3 weeks old topics?...

and since i am still under 100 posts, cant access premium resources i have to comment wherever i can to raise my post count... the rules are forcing me to do so.

you are completely wrong, the VIP resources are only available after purchasing a VIP account, so not based on post count.
also don't spam for credits, just earn them for reasonable posts

the rules aren't forcing you to bump old topics
and since this is a pretty active form, in signatures and avatars topics from a week old are old

in questions etc, this can be a month or smth like that, hopingt that the asking guy/girl is still active here and needing the answer to the question

Premium Resources?

There is only VIP Section which U must pay to gain access

And there is an members only resources section which U just need to be registered at Tech-GFX

sorry looks like i mixed this forum with another one for that VIP stuff,

and for comments .... I said Comments Not SPAM.... the difference is obvious.

EDIT: but i still need a 100 to rate/give credits right?

if you read the rules, you must know that posting for credits or post count is NOT allowed. You can purchase VIP membership with paypal or with 1200 credits from the store.
