Could the vb3 mod requests form have more moderation?

[Borgs8472]

It's sad to say that so very few requests in the modification requests forum that ever get made, but there are some ways things could be improved.

FAR too often people just post there and say:

"How can you do X?"

And someone responds

"Use hack Y"

or even

"Just edit Z on the admin CP"

Could posts like that get either closed or moved to an archive subforum?

That could account for about 50% of the threads there -> then what's left should be decent origonal ideas that people can help develop.

Thoughts?

And if someone else want the same requests, he can't see the answer !

I think it could be a nice job to edit title and add [resolved]

True, but so many newbies jump right in with requests to do that, they wouldn't...

So a nice 'resolved' marker would be nice, but additional moderation would be required still.

Maybe but they have find new good moderators

I don't think they are taking applications.

you might be correct ^^

Nah, I don't mind if you're not eager to dish out board power like that, but what do you think of the idea?

Is it something existing moderators could have time for?
