Pretty much what Audiate said. It's about opening the threads which are large and - particularly in the regimental section - full of images/videos. It was simply a way of providing stability to the server box so that the BCoF dev/test server isn't overtly impacted. The threads remain so they can be accessed, referenced etc, but don't have regular traffic of dozens of people opening up a large thread.

Due to the complaints that would inevitably arise if old threads were deleted, coupled with the insignificant benefit server-wise, there's no need to delete old threads.
This forum system has some limitations on the administrative side (being free, rather than hundreds of euros), and so it's not always easy to do everything you'd like, which may be available in (relatively) expensive forum systems. Due to this it would likely require mods trawling through hundreds of threads deleting them individually, which simply isn't something we have the time/sanity for.

Bullshit. No one would complain.

So what will happen when bcof comes out ?
Your going to loads of people rejoining this forum and making new regiments and they will end up having to make thread after thread becuase they will reach the limit in a few weeks.

When BCoF Comes out they can put money etc. towards a better server box. BCoF Is completely funded off donations i believe. So who would pay for this server box for the FSE Forums? Or could you just be nice people and live with the rules till they finish it (if they do ::) )

I'd very much like to see which individuals are voting and their choices before assuming the community "agrees" with you.
Listen to me big fat red haired spastic, you don't have half of my intelectual capacity, you are a fucking brain less animal, i think your mother throwed you on a wall when you were a baby and this is why you have the same brain as a monkey,
You understand nothing, this is why you are working at 20, because your brain did not allowed you to go to school to grab a decent degree, being toxic on a video game is not the same as being retarded, you should try to do some maths exercices because remember you can't even count to 10 if you remember one of the recent tournament, so now go threat your gambling addiction before your mom kick you out of her house.
And you should also go in an asylum, you get triggered by a fucking game and go in depression, deleting everyone on Steam and setting your profile as private, you cunt.
