PinoyPS Spring Cleaning - thread deletions

[choy]

Hi peeps of PinoyPS.com!

I have just been notified by our hosting service that I have to lower the size of our database, otherwise our site will be shut down. So to prevent that, I will be cleaning up PinoyPS.com threads. Our plan is to do the following:

1. Clean up old threads. This would mean threads that has no activity for quite some time will be deleted.
2. Any thread in the buy and sell section that has no post for 14 days will be deleted. Also, NO MORE BUMPING. A bump on a thread would mean immediate deletion of the thread. If its your thread and you are the last poster and would want to add more information, edit your last post. If you post again, your thread is deleted.
3. We will be reviewing all forums and would probably clean up all threads. The priority for thread deletions will be the non-gaming related forums. Only as a last resort shall we start deleted old threads on games and PlayStation hardware.
4. I am seriously considering deleting chain threads. Chain threads really have no meaningful conversations but eat up a lot of database space. Some of our longest threads are on Speak Easy. They have a great chance of being deleted. We will keep threads with meaningful conversations, but not those on things like, "what are you wearing right now?" Those will definitely be deleted.
5. Just an FYI, your post counts will go down. Do not complain. If the reason you are here is because of your post count total, then you are out of luck. You will not change as a person if your post count total gets lower. The world will still be the same. Live with it.

Hotlinked images naman ay hindi kasama sa mga kinakain ng databse di ba?

[SirZap]

^oo.

yung avatars natin di ba lumaki? pero tinangan natin kung drastically lumiit ang DB size ng forums kapag nawala na yung mga old threads.

[choy]

marami tayong useless threads na puwede naman i-delete. i'm itching to get rid of Speak Easy

[SirZap]

lipat ko lang yung ibang topics na pwede sa ibang subforums.

the rest naman kasi "chain" threads, pwede nang burahin yun.

EDIT:

Done.

nalipat ko na yung pwedeng ilipat

...wag nyo nalang i delete ng buo kung marami nag post, bawasan nalang ng page count. yung mga sobrang tagal na page delete nalang. ganun din siguro sa iba. di na naman kailangang i backread lahat siguro yun ng ibang member.

Nawala na lahat ng cute ng PPS!

Mas okay na to kesa ma shut down ang site.

nope, dinelete ko na lahat

no choice bro. either we get rid of useless, pointless conversations, or isasara ng provider ang pinoyps.

malaki pa rin DB natin. although nasa safe zone na tayo, kelangan pa rin mag trim ng DB

yung mga "funny pictures" na thread, pansin ko isang tao lang gumagawa nun.

may nakita din ako yung "ano naamoy mo ngayon?" basta parang ganyan yung thread title. hehe.

And yung mga threads din na ginagawa ng mga spambots bro...dumadami yung sa for sale/trade section...

Kumalat na rin sa ibang parts ng pps ang mga ito... clan zone, pinoy lifestyle, technical support, etc. They should be purged.

"jklm557" username ng spambot and and some example ng thread names na kumakalat is "eleven toughened" "myriad to root" "mouth, directly" - tsugihin na yan...

[xenj]

don't worry. dinidelete naman agad yung spam and banned agad ang spambots

[choy]

kung tutuusin konti lang ang posts ng mga spambots kumpara sa "the user above you"
