You should add some info on derailing, what it is, why it's discouraged, and what it could do to a topic (like make it closed).

I agree. This would really help a bunch of users, because I see plenty of users argue over little things that barely have to do with the topic.

I probably should but just not sure how I would implement it. I am worried it will make users stop referencing/comparing another suggestion on a topic.

Perhaps add that no matter the age of a topic, if it's the same as yours, it's still a duplicate? People seem to think that if a topic is old, it isn't relavant anymore and it's not a dupe.

Is your suggestion a duplicate? You can search it up using the keyboard shortcut CTRL/Command + F on the suggestions directory. and/or search your title you are going to use with ocular.

Little grammar mistake: it should be a comma.

Does that actually happen? I've never seen it.

I think you should also add a note saying something along the lines of “Please don't make test topics, as they clutter up the forums”.

I agree with the user above and it is not relevant to the suggestions subforum particularly.

Okay…

I think it is…people do make test topics

…they are very rare anyway.

The age of a suggestion thread isn't necessarily relevant, since we want to keep discussion about a particular idea to one thread. It's always a bit tricky, because sometimes the old thread doesn't have much discussion, or the new thread has a very well thought-out first post

the new bumping rules seem good. i guess i agree that “stop bumping it” might be a little too much; maybe “bump it less frequently.” i could see someone waiting a year and then bumping their thread; new forumers probably would show up who can offer their advice.

Changed it - is it alright now?
