Request:

change the emoticon wordfilter for to something else
then it'll stop showing up in timestamps and stuff

even putting another colon after the 3 will help

Just check the "Disable Smilies" checkbox.

automatically close any thread beyond a certain period of time being inactive. lets say 60 days after the last post.

its the only way people would stop bumping old, useless threads.

This doesn't seem like that great of an idea, I don't wanna deal with a bunch of threads about one thing as well as people asking "oh hey can you unlock these threads for me?" a whole bunch of times so in a way it is worse then necroposting. I'd rather just lock the occasional thread bumbed by a newbie rather then deal with a few people asking to have threads unlocked.

Not to mention this would be a HUGE PAIN IN THE ASS in the submissions sections because some people don't submit sprites for a few months then go back to it for a bit then take a break again so asking mods to unlock the same thread every few months would get tiring.
