JTexGolfer Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I think it would be a good idea for the forum moderators to "lock" the contest entry forum posts once the testers have been chosen. That way we don't have Snell MTB Red or JPX 900 irons testing pop back up in our feeds 5 years from now and have a bunch of folks start trying to apply,especially when new members flood in. I know there have been some issues with this lately and it has tripped up some people in the past, heck I have almost fallen for it. I like being able to access and comment on older posts that have relevant content, but I don't like seeing older posts requesting entry into something popping back up. It's especially maddening when you are on the mobile app. Just a thought but it seems as if it would be fairly easy to do. 400 Driver (8*) UST ATTAS Punch 6S F6 Baffler (16*) Matrix Red Tie 65Q4 816 H1 Hybrid (21*,23*) Diamana S+ Blue 82 HY Z765 (5-PW) +2* Aerotech Steelfiber i110cw Vokey SM5 50.08F 54.10M Aerotech Steelfiber i110cw PM Grind 60* Dynamic Gold S400 TR 1966 Anser 2 Z Star ball Pioneer Cart Bag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 And to prevent StudQue from his normal antics. So much for #TBT being about bumping informative threads to try to generate discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfJunkie302 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 This seems like a good suggestion. It has probably gotten a little out of hand. @jlukes, I don't think STUDque is responsible (#TBT is not usually application threads) — it's mostly new members, from what I've seen. Edit: nevermind. STUD just bumped an app. thread...

Just thought it would be a good idea to set up a honey pot since we've got so many new people and an active testing opening. Makes it easier to weed out the applicants.

hckymeyer Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 It's a fun honey pot, but I've also been trying to lock them down. For the past year or so we've been pretty good, but I'll continue to look for them and if older ones pop up and I'll lock it down. Thanks for the suggestion jdlingle. Hopefully with the new subforum for official testing applications this will get easier.

Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk Part of the problem is reading the posts on a tablet or phone. The date in the upper right is a very light gray and (at least) I have to look very hard to see it. Consequently I don't pay attention to it - maybe others don't as well.
