    I've just taken a look at the whole quote and it didn't mention anything about them being moved by forum members wrongly using the expired button :)

    The point was a BG moves them to GO so it might be them doing so rather than forum members. (having looked at something else I now doubt that is the case)

    Why would I have posted this thread if it was a BG doing it? I'd have discussed it directly with them

    Hi everyone

    Just a reminder the expired button is for competitions that have finished. Please don't use them to move threads you feel shouldn't be somewhere.

    Thanks

    Andrea :)
  • I've said it before, we can stop new users from Posting links, how about stopping people from Clicking Expired / Spam until they've been using the forum for a while / have a certain number of posts (the same way the posting links thing works)?

    I presume it's not being done maliciously and is just down to "newbies"?
    but who knows.
